Going through six months of press releases, an 
October 13, 2016 release had the best info.

"The NXP Standard Products business is an industry leading supplier of Discrete,
Logic and PowerMOS semiconductors focused on the Automotive, Industrial,
Computing, Consumer, and Wearable application markets.  At the close of the
transaction, the NXP Standard Products business will be branded Nexperia, which
will be headquartered in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.  For fiscal 2015, the NXP
Standard Products business had annual revenue of $1.2 billion."

Strange, that description sounds like it includes 
what Qualcomm is paying for.

"Under the agreement, the entire scope of the NXP Standard Products business,
including its management team, led by Frans Scheper, and approximately 11
thousand NXP employees will be transferred to Nexperia.  Nexperia will be an
independent company incorporated in the Netherlands, and will be fully owned
by JAC Capital and Wise Road Capital upon the close of the transaction.
Additionally, NXP’s Standard Product front end wafer fabs in Manchester, UK, and
Hamburg, Germany, and the back-end facilities in Guangdong, China, Seremban,
Malaysia, and Cabuyao, Philippines, will be transferred to Nexperia, as well as
the in-house equipment manufacturer ITEC and all relevant patents and
intellectual property associated with the Standard Products business."

That's 25% of NXPs 44,000 employees.  NXP posted revenue 
of $6.1 billion in 2015, so the $1.2B is about 20% of that.
I couldn't find any info on what NXP will be paid for this.
