On a non-GAAP basis, Intel earned $0.13 per diluted share in Q1 2025, clearing a near-breakeven consensus estimate of $0.00 by 2788.89%, while revenue of $12.67 billion edged past the $12.31 billion Wall Street expected, though it remained essentially flat, slipping 0.5% from a year earlier. The more telling story lived beneath the headline: GAAP gross margin contracted to 36.9% from 41.0% a year ago, and Intel Foundry, despite 7% revenue growth to $4.67 billion, continued to absorb operating losses of $2.32 billion. Headcount has fallen to 102,600 from 125,200 a year prior, with further layoffs expected in Q2. Looking ahead, Intel guided Q2 revenue of $11.20 billion to $12.40 billion with non-GAAP EPS of $0.00, reflecting what CFO Zinsner called "elevated uncertainty across the industry," even as Intel 18A process technology is slated to ramp in the second half of 2025.
