SEOUL - Samsung Electronics Co (F:SAMEq). has disclosed that Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Inc. is the counterparty in its previously announced semiconductor contract manufacturing agreement worth approximately $16.5 billion (KRW 22.76 trillion).
In an amended regulatory filing on Thursday, Samsung (KS:005930) revealed Tesla’s identity after initially withholding the information in its original July 28 disclosure at the counterparty’s request for business confidentiality.

Samsung noted in its statement that the contract value and period may vary depending on operational circumstances. The company also cautioned investors to "exercise caution, considering the possibility of changes to or termination of the contract."
The disclosure was made through a regulatory news service filing, updating information that was initially released with the counterparty’s name withheld at Tesla’s request for confidentiality.
