Presented to City Council
X-FAB Manufacturing, Inc. is one of the world's leading specialty foundry groups for analog/mixed-signal
semiconductor technologies with a clear focus on automotive, industrial, and medical applications. As a pure -
play foundry, X-Fab provides manufacturing and strong design support services to our customers that design
analog/mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs) and other semiconductor devices for use in their own products or
the products of their customers.
X-Fab has an established track record with over 30 years of experience providing proprietary manufacturing
processes and advanced design and engineering support. X-Fab anticipates to add 400 new jobs with average
salary of $88,000 annually and capital investment of 1 Billion over the next 5 years.
The Projects operations will support employment and other economic impacts in the community.
The 400.0 workers directly employed by the Project will earn approximately $96,000* per year on average over
the next 10 years. The direct activity will support 658.1 indirect and induced workers in the community earning
$27,000 on average over the next 10 years. The total additional payroll or workers' earnings associated with the
Project is estimated to be approximately $447.4 million over the next 10 years.
*Earnings impact includes all salaries/wages, benefits, and other compensation to employees. Value added
impact (change in Lubbock County's Gross Regional Product) includes earnings, taxes, and profits that the
company has added to its inputs and is equivalent to revenue less outside purchases (of materials and services).
This represents the wealth created and is also called value-added output, or productivity. The Project's
operations will support employment and other economic impacts in the community.
** The Present Value of Net Benefits is a way of expressing in today's dollars, dollars to be paid or received in
the future. Today's dollar and a dollar to be received or paid at differing times in the future are not comparable
because of the time value of money. The time value of money is the interest rate or each taxing entity's discount
rate.
This analysis was conducted using Total Impact", a model by Impact Data Source. The analysis was performed
using company data, rates and information provided to Lubbock Economic Development Alliance. In addition,
the model uses certain estimates and assumptions common for this type of analysis and based on data collected
for Lubbock County. Using this data, the impact from the facility and the costs and benefits for relevant taxing
districts were calculated using multipliers provided by Economic Modeling Specialists Inc.
