Qualcomm (QCOM) on Tuesday said it has entered into a multi-generation custom chip deal with Amazon (AMZN). The companies say they are also developing networking capabilities and other future data center products.
Qualcomm stock climbed more than 5% on the news. Shares of Amazon were flat.
As part of the arrangement, Qualcomm has issued warrants to Amazon for 25 million shares of the company's common stock at a price of $161.26 per share.
The shares will vest in tranches based on Amazon placing purchase orders and completing those purchases with a total value warrant value of $60 billion.
"Qualcomm is pleased to work with AWS on customized silicon and connectivity solutions, bringing decades of leadership in advanced processing and power-efficient compute, to deliver breakthrough performance and enable the next generation of AI infrastructure," CEO Cristiano Amon said in a statement.
