Cazalan :
There's way more competition in the ARM space. They'll have to compete with Samsung (which makes Intel look like a dwarf), Qualcomm (which is the size of Intel but without tons of debt), Nvidia, AMCC, Calxeda, Texas Instruments, to just name a few. These companies have been doing custom/semi-custom ARM cores for 5+ years. AMD has zero chance to catch up there anytime this decade.
AMD needs to execute better with x86 or they're toast. Steamroller should help a lot there if the IPC gains hold true.

Except for the fact that AMD is working on the ARM-64 cpu, mainly aimed at the server segment. AMD isn't using their ARM liscence for mobile (yet)
