That compares with an average analyst estimate of $13.6 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Profit will be 10 cents a share, minus certain items, versus a projection of 24 cents.The outlook signals that a push by Chief Executive Officer Pat Gelsinger to revitalize Intel is going to take more time and money. Once the world’s dominant chipmaker, the company is lagging behind rivals such as Nvidia Corp. and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. in revenue and technological know-how.While acknowledging that business has been slower than expected, Chief Financial Officer Dave Zinsner said he expected an improvement later this year. Intel also wasn’t able to meet all the demand for processors used in new AI-enabled PCs because its packaging facilities weren’t able to produce enough components.“The first half of the year has been a bit softer than we’d have liked,” he said in an interview. “The back half of the year is going to have some pretty good strength in it.”Intel shares fell as much as 9.4% in extended trading after the report was released. The stock had already declined 30% this year through the close, making it the second-worst performer on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange Semiconductor Index.In the first quarter, the Santa Clara, California-based company had a profit of 18 cents a share, excluding certain items, and revenue of $12.7 billion. Analysts had estimated a profit of 13 cents a share and sales of $12.7 billion.The chipmaker is reporting earnings for the first time under a new business structure that shows the financial performance of its manufacturing operations. Gelsinger has said the approach is a necessary step to make operations more efficient and competitive. Intel also has been building up a foundry business, which manufactures components for outside companies on a contract basis.Earlier this month, the company gave investors the first look at the financial state of its factory network. It wasn’t encouraging. Spending on new plants has caused losses to widen, and Intel doesn’t expect the business to reach a break-even point for several years.Intel Foundry, the new division responsible for manufacturing, had sales of $18.9 billion in 2023, down from $27.5 billion the previous year. The unit had revenue of $4.4 billion in the first quarter of 2024.The foundry business had an operating loss of about $2.5 billion in the first quarter, wider than the losses posted in the preceding quarter and the one a year earlier.The company’s PC-related chip sales were $7.5 billion, compared with an average estimate of $7.4 billion. Its data center and AI division had revenue of $3 billion, in line with Wall Street projections. Networking chips provided nearly $1.4 billion of sales, beating an average estimate of $1.3 billion.Gross margin — or the percentage of sales remaining after deducting the cost of production — was 45.1% in the quarter. That closely watched measure, which reflects the efficiency of Intel’s manufacturing operations, will be 43.5% in the current period. Historically Intel has posted margins of more than 60%.Intel remains optimistic about the second half of the year because it’s rolling out a new version of the Gaudi chip — its answer to the red-hot AI accelerators sold by Nvidia. That product line will bring in about $500 million in sales this year, once the latest version goes on sale, Intel projected.The company also is making progress at reining in costs and expects the manufacturing business to break even in the “next couple of years,” Zinsner said.Gelsinger said the company has signed up another customer for a production technology called 18A, which Intel will introduce in 2025. That brings the total to six. The customer, which Intel didn’t identify, is in the aerospace-defense industry and wants production located in the US, Gelsinger said.So far, the chipmaker has only been able to name one company that’s signed up to use 18A: Microsoft Corp. It plans to rely on Intel to produce certain types of in-house chip designs that the software maker is working on.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":10,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.2","shortVersion":"4.29.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1143940143"}
