Methods and apparatuses for performing a floating point multiply-add operation with alignment correction. A processor receives a first operand, a second operand and a third operand, wherein the first, second and third operands each represent a floating point number comprising a significand value and a biased exponent value. A processor determines a shift amount based, at least in part, on the one or more biased exponent values of the first, second or third operand. A processor determines a shift amount correction based, at least in part, on the one or more biased exponent values of the first, second or third operand being equal to zero. |
