Exclusive-Silver Lake, Intel-Backed Altera Prepares IPO that Could Raise over $2 Billion as Early as 2026, Sources Say
The listing would be one of the largest semiconductor IPOs in recent years and follows Silver Lake's 2024 deal valuing Altera at $8.75 billion.
- Silver Lake and Intel-backed chipmaker Altera is preparing an initial public offering that could raise over $2 billion as early as 2026, according to people familiar with the matter.
- The company became fully standalone last September after Intel sold a 51 per cent stake to Silver Lake for $4.46 billion in a transaction valuing the chipmaker at $8.75 billion.
- Barclays, Citi, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley will serve as underwriters for the IPO, while Chief Executive Raghib Hussain previously said the company was "preparing for an eventual public listing."
- This listing would mark one of the largest semiconductor IPOs since Arm Holdings' 2023 debut, which raised nearly $5 billion, as U.S. IPOs have raised a record $137 billion through August.
- The planned offering comes as Intel, under CEO Lip-Bu Tan, continues a restructuring aimed at restoring growth, while other mega listings like Anthropic could raise about $100 billion.
