New facility scales critical CMP materials production to meet rising demand from AI and high-performance computing
Qnity Electronics, Inc. (“Qnity”) (NYSE: Q), a premier technology solutions leader across the semiconductor value chain, today celebrated the opening of its new 385,000-square-foot facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Newark, Delaware.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260311679099/en/Qnity leaders and government officials, including Delaware Governor Matt Meyer, celebrate the opening of Qnity's new 385,000-square-foot facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Newark, Delaware.
The new facility, part of a multi-year investment to expand advanced manufacturing, increases capacity to meet rising demand for semiconductor materials driven by the rapid growth of AI, high performance computing, and advanced connectivity — all of which are contributing to the semiconductor industry's projections of $1 trillion in global revenue in the next few years.
“The expansion of Qnity’s domestic manufacturing footprint further strengthens our operational agility to meet ever-shifting customer needs, ensure global and regional capacity, and advance collaborative innovation through strategic investments,” said Jon Kemp, Chief Executive Officer at Qnity.
The location is home to a newly commissioned manufacturing line producing components for Qnity’s leading chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) pads, the polishing discs used for smoothing the chip’s surface during fabrication, an area in which Qnity is a leader in the global supply chain.
The line provides enhanced reliability and quality improvements essential for the use of CMP pads at the most cutting-edge, advanced nodes, where the complexity of AI chip fabrication requires more CMP steps per wafer during production, a source of major growth potential for CMP materials in the era of AI transformation.
Attended by Delaware Governor Matt Meyer and other government and community leaders and partners, the ceremony officially commemorated the opening of the new facility’s first manufacturing line.
“Delawareans win the future when we build the things that power next generation technologies for the world,” said Governor Matt Meyer. “Qnity is doing just that, which means more jobs and more opportunity, and reminds us that Delawareans are manufacturing the future of semiconductors and advanced electronics right here, outside Newark."

US Judge Dismisses Several Claims In Qwest Case -Report
Apr 2, 2010 11:46:40 (ET)
DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
A U.S. judge narrowed the scope of a fraud case against five former Qwest Communications International Inc. (Q) officials, including former Chief Executive Joe Nacchio, throwing out several allegations made by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Denver Post reported Friday. The dismissed claims relate to charges that the defendants committed fraud from 1999 to 2002 when they booked revenue from network-capacity swaps in a lump sum rather than over the life of multi-year contracts. The case will now focus on whether Qwest was required to make public filings advising that its communications revenue comprised both monthly and lump-sum revenue and whether the defendants were aware of the fact.

U.S. Supreme Court asked to hear appeal from ex-Qwest chief
Business First of Columbus... Monday, March 23, 2009
The U.S. Supreme Court has been asked to overturn the conviction of former Qwest Communications International Inc. CEO Joseph Nacchio or grant him a new trial on insider trading charges. In the meantime, Nacchio no longer must report to a federal prison Monday because of the legal maneuver.
Nacchio’s attorney, Maureen Mahoney, asked the high court in a filing late Friday to take up the case on the grounds of unresolved questions about jury instructions given during Nacchio’s U.S. District Court trial in Denver and over the exclusion of expert witness testimony in his defense.
Given Nacchio’s high-court appeal, U.S. District Judge Marcia Krieger in Denver on Friday temporarily suspended an order that he report to prison Monday while she considers whether Nacchio can remain free on bond until the Supreme Court appeal plays out.
A jury convicted Nacchio in 2007 on 19 felonies related to insider trading when he ran Denver-based Qwest (NYSE:Q). The company is one of the largest telecommunications service providers in Central Ohio, with about 1,000 employees in Dublin. The New Jersey resident has been sentenced to six years in jail but has been fighting to have the conviction reversed through appeals.
The nation’s highest court isn’t guaranteed to take up Nacchio’s case. But filing the plea at the very least triggers a stay on the order that Nacchio report to prison by noon Monday in Pennsylvania. Denver jurors found Nacchio guilty of selling $52 million of Qwest stock in 2001 while he publicly proclaimed the company’s continued strength despite internal company projections that the telecom had looming financial difficulties.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the conviction in 2008, citing a ruling by District Court Judge Edward Nottingham during the lower-court trial that excluded expert testimony from a defense witness. A full panel of judges from the appeals court reconsidered that ruling and in a 5-4 decision last month reinstated the original verdict and sentence.
In addition to six years in prison, Nacchio has been ordered to pay $19 million in fines and forfeit $52 million.

UPDATE 1-Comcast says it's now No. 3 US home phone provider
Wed Mar 11, 2009
*Comcast says is No. 3 US home phone provider
*Comcast says has 6.47 million phone subscribers
NEW YORK, March 11 (Reuters) - Comcast Corp (CMCSA.O:), the largest U.S. cable television company, said on Wednesday it has become the No. 3 provider of primary home phone service in the United States, overtaking telephone company Qwest Communications International Inc (Q.N:).
The cable company, which started offering phone services in the spring of 2005, said it now has 6.47 million subscribers that take its phone service. Comcast compared its numbers with Qwest's primary consumer access lines, which totaled 5.96 million as of Dec. 31. But Qwest has 6.5 million consumer phone lines in total when it includes additional home phone lines for subscribers who take more than one line.
Comcast said its rapid growth in the phone business has been driven by competing on price and offering innovative features such as universal caller ID, which displays the phone numbers of callers on customers' phones, televisions and personal computers if they are "triple-play" customers. "As a new entrant we've been innovating to give people new reasons to have a home phone" said Cathy Avgiris, Comcast senior vice president of voice services. Avgiris said the company has also offered its extra service at prices 20 to 30 percent cheaper than traditional phone services.
Comcast typically offers its stand-alone voice service at $39.95 a month, but nearly 90 percent of its phone customers take its competitively priced triple-play package including video and Internet access. Cable and telecoms analysts have noted that there has been a growing trend towards "cord-cutting," with more people opting to use just wireless phones for primary phone service, especially as they try to reduce their monthly expenses.
During the fourth quarter Comcast and other cable companies saw a sharp slowdown in the rate at which customers switched from traditional phone companies like AT&T Inc (T.N:) and Verizon Communications Inc (VZ.N:).
Comcast's phone service has been a key growth engine for winning new subscribers in recent quarters, helping to push its triple-play offer. It added 2 million phone subscribers in 2008.

UPDATE 1-Ex-Qwest CEO Nacchio asks again for jail term delay
Tue Mar 10, 2009 9:09pm EDT
* Ex-Qwest CEO requests postponement of prison term
* Lawyer says he has undisclosed health issues (Adds decision on earlier appeal for a delay)
DENVER, Colo., March 10 (Reuters) -- Former Qwest Communications International Inc (Q.N:) Chief Executive Joseph Nacchio asked on Tuesday that he be allowed to report to prison later than his March 23 deadline, saying he had "confidential" health issues.
The convicted insider trader's request came four days after another of Nacchio's lawyers asked the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to let him remain free until a petition can be submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court for a review of his conviction. [ID:nN061201]
But on Tuesday, the appeals court denied the request, although it said in its decision that Nacchio could resubmit it after first taking it to the U.S. District Court for Colorado.
Nacchio was convicted in 2007, in what was touted a major victory for government regulators, of selling $52 million in Qwest stock after company insiders warned him the regional telephone carrier would not meet public revenue goals.
Last week, the former executive was ordered to report to a minimum security prison March 23 to begin serving a six-year sentence.
Tuesday's motion to the U.S. District Court in Denver included sealed "confidential information regarding defendant's health." Nacchio's attorney did not respond to a request for information about the health issue.
