The FINANCIAL — Intel Corporation on July 27 reported second-quarter revenue of $14.8 billion, up 9 percent year-over-year. After adjusting for the Intel Security Group (ISecG) transaction, second-quarter revenue grew 14 percent from a year ago.
Operating income was $3.8 billion, up 190 percent year-over-year, and non-GAAP operating income was $4.2 billion, up 30 percent. EPS was $0.58, up 115 percent year-over-year, and non-GAAP EPS was $0.72, up 22 percent.
The company also generated approximately $4.7 billion in cash from operations, paid dividends of $1.3 billion, and used $1.3 billion to repurchase 36 million shares of stock. Intel is raising its full-year revenue outlook by $1.3 billion to $61.3 billion and raising its EPS outlook to $2.66 (GAAP) and $3.00 (non-GAAP), which is a 15 cent increase over the previous guidance, according to Intel.
“Q2 was an outstanding quarter with revenue and profits growing double digits over last year,” said Brian Krzanich, Intel CEO. “We also launched new Intel Core, Xeon and memory products that reset the bar for performance leadership, and we’re gaining customer momentum in areas like AI and autonomous driving. With industry-leading products and strong first-half results, we’re on a clear path to another record year.”
“We feel great about where we are relative to our three year plan and heading into the second half. Intel’s transformation continues in the third quarter when we expect to complete our planned acquisition of Mobileye,” said Bob Swan, Intel CFO. “Based on our strong first-half results and higher expectations for the PC business, we’re raising our full-year revenue and EPS forecast.”
