“This expansion will help support the committed demand that will begin to convert to revenue in 2027.”

In context

“r-over-quarter as better yields across Intel 4, Intel 3, and 18A drove higher gross margins. This was mostly offset by increased operating expenses associated with an intentional step-up in Intel 14A investments to support both internal and external customer evaluations. As a reminder, Intel Foundry carries the bulk of the cost associated with the early ramp of Intel 18A, and we expect Intel Foundry’s operating loss to improve through the year as 18A continues to ramp into volume and yields improve further. Within the quarter, Intel Foundry delivered output above our expectations, drove steady improvements in yields, and met key 14A milestones. Intel Foundry also added to its backlog of advanced packaging services and announced a multiyear expansion of our back-end facilities in Malaysia. This expansion will help support the committed demand that will begin to convert to revenue in 2027. Turning to All Other. Revenue came in at $628 million and was up 9% sequentially due to a strong quarter for Mobileye. Collectively, the category delivered an operating profit of $102 million. Now turning to guidance. As we look ahead, we remain mindful that the macroeconomic and geopolitical environments are dynamic. Views on global growth, policy, and trade continue to shape customer behavior and investment decisions. In addition, constraints and rising prices around key components like memory, wafers, and substrates are driving higher costs that could impact demand for our product at some point in the year. We are prudently planning for PC demand to weaken in the second half of the year and expect the full-year PC unit TAM to be down low double-digit percent, in line with industry peer”
