ST. PETERS, Mo., Feb. 18, 2016 -- SunEdison Semiconductor Limited (NASDAQ:SEMI) ("SunEdison Semiconductor" or the “Company”) announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized a process to explore a range of strategic alternatives following receipt of unsolicited preliminary indications of interest in the Company.

During its strategic review process, the Company intends to continue to vigorously pursue its existing business plan.
