Intel Corporation (INTC) is set to announce its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings on January 22, 2026, with sales and earnings estimates at $13.37 billion and 8 cents per share, respectively. Recent adjustments show 2025 earnings estimates rising from 32 cents to 34 cents per share, while 2026 estimates decreased from 59 cents to 58 cents.
In the last quarter, Intel achieved an impressive 577.1% average earnings surprise over four quarters, with a record 2,200% surprise reported last quarter. The company is also developing new products, including the Intel Core Ultra series 3 processor and Xeon 6+ processor, aiming to enhance customer engagement and revenue generation.
However, Intel faces potential challenges, including increased competition from NVIDIA and market pressures from China’s shift toward domestic chip production, which could impact sales and margins. With a notable 124.8% stock increase over the past year, Intel continues to navigate a complex environment as it focuses on AI developments and semiconductor manufacturing.
