Infineon has raised 1.5 billion euros ($1.31 billion) by selling 60 million new shares.

Infineon expects to report a pre-tax loss as high as E600 million ($512 million) for its Q3 ending 30 June.

Chip price crashes, excess inventories, and slow mobile-phone sales have caused its sales to fall by 30 per cent in the quarter. ®
