Intel CFO David Zinser said that the semiconductor giant received $5.7 billion from the U.S. government on Wednesday evening.
Zinsner acknowledged the investment on Thursday during an investor conference. The investment is part of the White House's decision last Friday to take a 10% stake in the beleaguered computer chip company.
Zinser also signaled the possibility that Intel seeks outside investment for its foundry business.
The company reported better-than-expected second-quarter results on July 25, but its shares sank 8% due to concerns over the business of its foundry unit, which manufactures computer chips for other firms.
"There's likely going to be some opportunity for outside investors in foundry, and that will probably be our second opportunity to raise cash to fund the growth on the foundry side," Zinser said.
