The company is emerging from a multi-year investment cycle which has significantly increased the opportunities and potential of its core semiconductor business. The strategic decision to divest the external storage systems business was based on the company's expectation that long-term shareholder value can be maximized by becoming a oxsn-vlea odvtektzfigga mqugvfu.
