Brookfield Infrastructure Signs Definitive Agreement with Intel

BROOKFIELD, News, Aug. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (NYSE: BIP; TSX: BIP.UN), together with its institutional partners (collectively, “Brookfield Infrastructure”), has signed a definitive agreement with Intel Corporation (“Intel”) to jointly fund Intel’s under-construction semiconductor fabrication facility located in Chandler, Arizona.

Intel’s announcement can be accessed here: https://www.intc.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/1568/intel-advances-smart-capital-introduces-first-of-its-kind.

The arrangement supports Intel’s continued build-out of U.S. semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. It also highlights the important role Brookfield Infrastructure expects to play in assisting leading companies like Intel onshore part of the digital backbone of the global economy with the support of our flexible and large-scale capital. Brookfield Infrastructure is investing up to $15 billion for a 49% stake in Intel’s manufacturing expansion at its Ocotillo campus in Chandler, Arizona, with Intel having a 51% stake in this arrangement.

This multi-year capital expansion project will replenish BIP’s existing backlog of capital projects that near completion this year, including the Heartland Petrochemical Complex and the second phase of our build-out of electricity transmission lines in Brazil. This investment forms part of another successful round of asset rotation as we monetize mature assets and reinvest proceeds over time in capital projects that have return and risk expectations in-line with our objectives.

Concurrent with transaction signing, Brookfield Infrastructure secured binding non-recourse financing to fund a significant portion of its capital investment in this arrangement with Intel. BIP’s equity portion for this investment will be phased over the duration of the construction period and is anticipated to be $500 to $750 million in aggregate. Funding is expected to be sourced primarily from retained operating cash flow and proceeds from our capital recycling program, with the majority funded closer to facility commissioning.

Closing of the transaction is targeted for the end of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.
