The US Commerce Department has awarded Samsung and Texas Instruments with a combined over $6 billion in “direct funding under the CHIPS Incentives Program’s Funding Opportunity for Commercial Fabrication,” according to a pair of announcements published on Friday.

Following extensive talks, two more firms besides Intel and TSMC will get tax funds for new US chip factories. They are already under construction.

Samsung Electronics Co. and Texas Instruments Inc. completed final agreements to get billions of dollars of government support for new semiconductor plants in the US, cementing a major piece of the Biden administration’s Chips Act initiative.
