Intel Q3 Results

Refinitiv analysts expected Intel to report adjusted earnings per share of $1.11 and a revenue of $18.25 billion. Intel’s Data Center Group came up with $5.91 billion in revenue, down 7% and less than the FactSet consensus estimate of $6.21 billion.

However, the company indicated that revenue from enterprises and governments went down 47% after two quarters of growth above 30%. The decline was largely attributed to the coronavirus pandemic and change in consumer behavior.

As the pandemic sent most people to work and study from their homes, the company has noted that most are opting for cheaper laptops with cheaper processors. As a result, the company sold a higher volume of less profitable chips in the third quarter. This trend worried investors, which perhaps has triggered the Thursday after hours sell off.
