GlobalFoundries posted a decline in revenue in its latest quarter but results came in ahead of Wall Street's estimates.

The chip maker logged net income of $134 million, or 24 cents a share, for the first quarter ended March 31, down from $254 million, or 46 cents a share, a year earlier. Adjusted earnings were 31 cents a share, above analysts' estimates of 23 cents a share.

Revenue declined 16% to $1.55 billion from $1.84 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $1.52 billion.

"As pockets of the semiconductor industry begin to emerge from the inventory correction, our teams are driving foundry innovation and differentiation for our customers across their essential end-markets," said Chief Executive Thomas Caulfield.

For the second quarter, GlobalFoundries forecast revenue between $1.59 billion and $1.64 billion as well as adjusted earnings per-share in the range of 24 cents and 34 cents. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $1.58 billion in revenue and 29 cents a share on an adjusted basis.
