软银收购ARM细节曝光：仍需英国政府最后批准 - ARM,软银 - IT资讯
据美联社报道，周一，日本软银和英国芯片设计公司ARM对外宣布，软银将斥资243亿英镑收购ARM控股公司。
美联社报道指出，这一收购表明了软银对于物联网市场的企图心。
另外，在英国脱离欧盟公投之后，英镑汇率大跌，这也给外国公司收购英国的资产提供了绝佳的机会。此前，中国万达集团已经收购了英国一家电影院线企业。
软银表示，公司董事会已经批准了收购交易，不过ARM公司股东大会和英国相关机构仍然需要批准这一交易。ARM已经推荐股东大会批准这一交易。软银通过声明表示，希望这一交易能够在九月底完成。
ARM的董事长钱伯斯（Stuart Chambers）表示，软银收购计划对于公司发展将是一个推动，软银已经承诺将会对公司进行投资，未来五年内员工将翻一番。
ARM成立于1990年，目前在全世界雇佣了三千多人，该公司主要资产包括芯片设计领域的技术和专利，不过该公司目前对苹果这样的外部伙伴提供芯片设计方案的授权，公司并未直接生产智能手机处理器。
软银是日本大型移动运营商，此前收购了美国移动运营商Sprint，但是在重振这家美国公司方面遇到了阻力。
不久前，软银总裁Nikesh Arora离职，孙正义继续执掌软银大权，这也是软银高管人事变动之后进行的第一次重大资产交易。
据ARM方面称，全世界95%的智能手机和80%的数码相机使用到该公司的技术。另外，新兴的增强现实头盔、生物测量传感器、自动驾驶汽车、商业无人机、智能手表也使用了该公司技术。
受到软银收购ARM消息激励，ARM控股股价在伦敦证券交易所上涨510便士至1699便士，涨幅为42.89%。
