Intel Corporation today reported second-quarter 2018 financial results. Record second quarter revenue of $17.0 billion was up 15 percent YoY driven by strength across the business and customer demand for performance-leading Intel platforms. Collectively, data-centric businesses grew 26 percent, approaching 50 percent of total revenue. PC-centric revenue was up 6 percent on strength in the commercial and enthusiast segments. Operating margin leverage and lower tax rate drove excellent EPS growth.

"After five decades in tech, Intel is poised to deliver our third record year in a row. We are uniquely positioned to capitalize on the need to process, store and move data, which has never been more pervasive or more valuable," said Bob Swan, Intel CFO and Interim CEO. "Intel is now competing for a $260 billion market opportunity, and our second quarter results show that we're winning. As a result of the continued strength we are seeing across the business, we are raising our full year revenue and earnings outlook."



In the second quarter, the company generated approximately $7.4 billion in cash from operations, paid dividends of $1.4 billion and used $3.9 billion to repurchase 76 million shares of stock.



In the second quarter, Intel achieved revenue growth in every business segment. The PC-centric business grew 6 percent driven by strong demand for Intel's performance leading products with particular strength in gaming and commercial. The Client Computing Group (CCG) launched several new 8th Gen Intel Core processors including: the powerful 8th Gen Intel Core i9 processor for high performance laptops, 8th Gen Intel Core vPro processors for business, and the 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8086K limited-edition processor for gaming.

Collectively, Intel's data-centric businesses grew 26 percent year-over-year led by 27 percent growth in the Data Center Group (DCG). DCG saw strong demand from cloud and communications service providers investing to meet the explosive demand for data and to improve the performance of data-intensive workloads like artificial intelligence. DCG customer preference for Intel's highest-performance products continued; Intel Xeon Scalable momentum continued.

The workload optimization trend in the data center is also fueling demand for FPGAs; Intel's Programmable Solutions Group (PSG) revenue grew 18 percent.

Intel's memory (NSG), Internet of Things Group (IOTG) and Mobileye businesses each achieved record quarterly revenue. Mobileye revenue grew 37 percent year-over-year as the adoption of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) increases.

Business Outlook
Intel's guidance for the third-quarter and full-year 2018 includes both GAAP and non-GAAP estimates. Reconciliations between these GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures are included below.

Intel's Business Outlook does not include the potential impact of any business combinations, asset acquisitions, divestitures, strategic investments and other significant transactions that may be completed after July 26, 2018. Actual results may differ materially from Intel's Business Outlook as a result of, among other things, the factors described under "Forward-Looking Statements" below. Our guidance above reflects the divestiture of Wind River, which was completed during the second quarter of 2018.

Really? Their 2nd quarter results are available. That follows a successful and profitable 1st quarter.

Not to mention AMD is trending up, Intel is trending down, from everything in R&D to stock results which are reflecting how well AMD has bounced back and how badly Intel has sat on it's hands since 2011 when it released X79 and has dominated ever since. However AMD dropped 32 cores and Ryzen etc as well as finally being profitable and soon will be on 7nm while Intel is stuck with 14nm till essentially 2020. So yeah, joke about AMD not knowing what profit worked up till this year but now Intel is the one who is in a very unenviable position of weakness.
