What is the main reason for this amended 8-K filing?

The primary reason for this amended 8-K filing is to correct typographical errors found in Exhibit 99.1 of the original 8-K report filed on December 21, 2005. The original report pertained to the reorganization and IPO of Spansion LLC.

What kind of financial information is provided in Exhibit 99.1?

Exhibit 99.1 provides unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. This includes statements of operations for the fiscal year 2004 and the first nine months of 2005, and a balance sheet as of September 25, 2005. These statements reflect the financial impact on AMD as if the Spansion IPO had occurred and the equity method of accounting was applied.

Should investors rely solely on these pro forma financial statements to understand AMD's performance?

No, investors should not rely solely on these pro forma statements. They are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of AMD's actual operating results or financial position that would have been achieved, or of future periods. Investors should also review AMD's official consolidated financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) sections from their 10-K and 10-Q filings.

What is the significance of the Spansion LLC reorganization and IPO to AMD?

The reorganization and IPO of Spansion LLC, a former majority-owned subsidiary, would have significantly altered AMD's ownership structure and reporting of Spansion's financial results. The pro forma statements help investors understand this change by illustrating how AMD's financials would look under the equity method of accounting for its reduced stake in Spansion post-IPO.
