高通(Qualcomm),这家市值达1050亿美元的芯片生产商正受到一家维权投资者的施压。高通表示,在芯片需求增长放缓之际,将进行裁员,将业务迁移到低成本国家,并考虑拆分业务。
The company also announced that it would add three new directors to its board and shake upexecutive compensation, agreeing to a slate of demands from the activist hedge fund JanaPartners.
高通还同意了维权对冲基金加纳伙伴基金(Jana Partners)的一系列要求,宣布将向董事会增加3名成员,并调整高管薪酬。
Qualcomm has been under pressure since Jana took a $2bn stake in the company in April,demanding cost cuts and the possible separation of the patent licensing arm that accounts fortwo-thirds of earnings.
自4月以20亿美元入股之后,加纳伙伴基金一直在向高通施加压力,要求他们削减成本,如果可能的话,还要把对公司利润贡献率达三分之二的专利授权部门剥离出去。
The company, which employs 31,000 workers worldwide, said it would cut $1.1bn a year fromits $7.3bn in annual costs by reducing full-time and temporary workers. The cuts could resultin up to 4,500 job losses before the end of 2016.
