Intel Revenue reports High Q1 Revenue Boosted by Data Center and PC Businesses

Intel Revenue reports High Q1 Revenue Boosted by Data Center and PC Businesses

Intel's shared its first-quarter revenue numbers, and that increased as a result of high data-centric and PC-centric revenues, while the company on Thursday forecast current-quarter revenue above analysts’ estimates.

The company expects second-quarter revenue of about $18.5 billion, as lockdown orders globally fuel demand for its data center chips that power internet-based services. “The second half demand picture is more uncertain,” Chief Executive Officer Bob Swan said during a conference call with analysts. For Intel’s PC chip business, the economic slowdown will outweigh demand from the work-from-home trend, the company said. The data center division will benefit from continued chip purchases by large cloud providers, it added. “At some point we’re going to see the recession start to impact demand for PCs,” Chief Financial Officer George Davis told analysts on the conference call. Intel is already seeing the impact on automotive customers and the Internet-of-Things business, he added.

Davis mentions Intel expects lower gross margins in the second quarter because of the costs of readying its “Tiger Lake” 10-nanonmeter processors for the PC market. Intel plans to sell those chips starting in the third quarter. The costs drove Intel’s profit forecast for the quarter below Wall Street expectations, he said. The costs would not effect the margin for the full year, Davis said, because Intel would be able to sell the chips at high margins in the third quarter as the costs of readying them would already have been accounted for in the second quarter. But Intel’s ability to recoup the money it is investing in the Tiger Lake chips in the second quarter depends on its ability to sell them in the third-quarter and beyond.

Intel executives said the chip is likely to be included in 50 different laptops that will go on sale during the 2020 holiday shopping season but they declined to forecast sales that far ahead. Intel's first-quarter revenue was $19.8 billion, up 23% year-over-year (YoY). However, it did not provide full-year guidance given significant economic uncertainty. In the first quarter, Intel achieved 34 percent data-centric revenue growth and 14 percent PC-centric revenue growth YoY. First-quarter GAAP earnings-per-share (EPS) was $1.31, up 51 percent YoY; non-GAAP EPS of $1.45 was up 63 percent. During the Q1, Intel said it maintained essential factory operations with greater than 90 percent on-time delivery while supporting employees, customers and communities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

First-quarter data-centric results were led by strength in the Data Center Group (DCG) with revenue up 43 percent YoY driven by broad strength including 53 percent YoY growth in cloud service provider revenue. Intel's memory business (NSG) and Mobileye both set new revenue records in the first quarter. The PC-centric business (CCG) exceeded expectations, up 14 percent YoY in the first quarter on improved CPU supply and demand strength as consumers and businesses are relying on PCs for working and learning at home.

brah, nah. who the hell does that? And how were they doing that before ryzen? ;)

I doubt you do any of that, having 1080ti and all, you probably do the same as I do, browse, watch YT or something and game.
More cores means more possibilities. Before Ryzen I also did most of what I wrote. I have for many years been using programs like 3D studio Max, LightWave, Blender and Premiere.
Before Ryzen we were forced to use overpriced dual / quadcore CPU's because there were no competition. If you wanted > 4 core you had to pay half a million. But along comes Ryzen
and suddenly it becomes clear how badly I was ripped off by overpriced intel products through the years. Just because you don't use you computer for anything doesn't mean others don't.

I don't do any of the above. I'm pretty certain that the majority of people on here are gamers.

To be honest, I can write this while watching a YouTube video, hell, I could even be upscaling something in Topaz and I could be denoising 2000 pics from my phone while I'm writing this. Having 8c/16t would save me a few minutes. Cool, I don't really care.

And I definitely don't have to stream at any quality while I'm gaming. Why would I feel the need to show my gaming to the world? Not a narcissist, sorry.

At the end of the day, why not just let people decide what they want to buy? For best outright gaming performance, Intel is still king. And if that's all someone want, why trying to convert them into some upscaling/encoding studio?
I never said anything about not buying certain products I reacted to the 6-core comment which is a clueless remark. Of course intel is going to try to convince people they don't need more than 4 cores, Since they cannot compete on core count atm.

I was making a killing on LightWave animations back in 1998/2000 using, whatever was available then. There is a function "network rendering" I put 3 machines in LAN and did renders on all 3. You see, professionals are not limited to marketing.
More possibilities, give me break, that's a pipedream, like american one.

edit: you should see this:


they are not using AMD. They are not using anything mainstream that most people cum at. They know better.
The best thing is, they use game engine, they don't use any of the "oldschool" stuff like 3DSMax, Maya, this that...Real time baby ;) ain't no body has time to render.

Sure, everyone benefits from Ryzen. Mostly the people that don't really need >6/12 CPUs, but here they are, and intel lovers got intel to move again.

I think for anyone buying their first PC right now, be it for gaming or whatever else, they would go with Ryzen. But I also think that there's a lot of people on 6700k, 7700k, 8700k and such CPUs that simply see no point in upgrading to Ryzen right now. I'm one of them. Hell, I was stoked for the 2xxx Ryzens, then I decided to pass, then I thought I'll definitely get a 3700x but again, I passed. And I'll probably pass on the 4xxx offerings too, unless they turn out to be a bit more of a step up than 2xxx > 3xxx was. I'm a gamer and for me there's no point in spend £500 on a CPU and motherboard to have the same performance.

Every time I see people building a first gaming rig, I suggest AMD, depending on budget it's mostly the 3600. It's a great CPU. But like I said, there's a lot of people still out there who are waiting for Ryzen (and Intel) to offer us a viable upgrade.

Most people do more and more at the same time? Here is where you got the wrong picture.
Most people aka customers don't need any of that.
Right. Sorry to bother you on a Friday.
There are people who use office and then there are people like me who use all the programs in office and exchange
data between them to complete work related tasks on huge datasets, both off and online. I'm sorry to burst your bubble
but most people actually do more and more on their computer simply because the possibilities are endless.
