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.
