Intel’s stock (INTC) surged more than 11% on Tuesday following a Wall Street Journal report that Broadcom and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) are exploring potential bids that could lead to splitting up the embattled chipmaker.

Intel stock rose Tuesday as speculation mounts about deals to acquire different parts of the chip company. However, there are major hurdles for a reported potential split of the company’s operations between Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and Broadcom.

Intel’s interim Executive Chairman Frank Yeary has reportedly been holding talks with both suitors and officials from the Trump administration, who are worried about the fate of a company that is still viewed as critical to U.S. national security. Yeary has reportedly said his main focus is to maximize value for Intel’s shareholders.
