Infineon acquires sensor portfolio from ams OSRAM

Infineon Technologies is expanding its sensor business with the acquisition of the non-optical analog/mixed-signal sensor portfolio from ams OSRAM Group. The two companies have entered into an agreement for a purchase price of €570 million on a debt-free and cash-free basis.

With the planned investment, Infineon will strengthen its position as a leader in sensors for automotive and industrial markets through a complementary portfolio and expand its product range in medical applications. The acquired business is expected to generate around €230 million in revenue in calendar year 2026 and will support Infineon’s profitable growth. As part of the transaction, around 230 employees with expertise in research and development (R&D) and business management will join Infineon. The agreement includes a multi-year supply agreement with ams OSRAM.

“The acquired business is a perfect strategic fit for Infineon and complements our strong offering in the analog and sensor space. We will be able to provide our customers with even more comprehensive system solutions,” says Jochen Hanebeck, CEO of Infineon. “I am convinced that this is an outstanding technological, commercial and cultural match, generating growth opportunities in our current target markets as well as in emerging areas like humanoid robotics.”

The overall transaction is structured as a fabless asset deal covering sensor products, R&D capabilities, intellectual property and test & lab equipment. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the second quarter of calendar year 2026. Infineon will fund the acquisition with additional debt, as part of its general corporate financing plans.
