For AMD's exhibition CES 2015 was quiet, except for a demonstration of laptop processor-based Carrizo.
First , John Byrne who headed the division of Computing and Graphics Business Group is leaving his post. After the recent restructuring of this division merged assets related to the design of central processors and graphics solutions. According to AMD representatives , data personnel changes are part of a plan to optimize the organizational structure of the company. Acting Head of Unit will temporarily perform the AMD CEO Lisa Su (Lisa Su).
Along the way, lost their jobs Chief Marketing AMD Lafors Colette and Raj Naik , who was responsible for the formation of AMD's strategy. Recall that Lisa Su last quarter took his current position just a week before the publication of the quarterly report. It seems that such personnel upheaval becomes a tradition for AMD, and the market has become accustomed to them - the company's stock fell by only 0.76% after the appearance of the data. Interestingly, the Chief Financial Officer AMD Devinder Kumar (Devinder Kumar) and chief engineer Mark Peypermaster (Mark Papermaster) received on the eve stimulus packages of shares in the amount of 384,467 shares and 276,701 pieces, respectively.
