INTEL CORP

Overview

Intel Corporation is a semiconductor company that designs and manufactures processors and other semiconductor products, develops chip-manufacturing and advanced-packaging technologies, and provides foundry services to external customers. Its products include Core Ultra processors for personal computers and Xeon processors for data centers and networks, as well as accelerators and related technologies.[1]+2

Intel’s operations span multiple regions, with key fabrication facilities in the United States, Ireland and Israel, and assembly and test facilities in the United States, China, Vietnam and Malaysia.[4] Intel describes its purpose as creating “world-changing technology that enables global progress and enriches lives.” [5] For scale, Intel reported fiscal 2025 net revenue of $52.853 billion and 85,100 employees as of December 27, 2025.[6][7] [1]+6

Products & services

Intel’s product portfolio includes client processors, data-center processors, networking and infrastructure products, and related software. Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors include 200V notebook chips with Xe2 graphics, XMX AI acceleration and second-generation ray tracing; the company’s filings also describe desktop variants with an NPU and Foveros packaging. Intel identifies Core Ultra Series 3 as its first product built on Intel 18A.[2]+2

For data centers, Intel Xeon 6 is a modular x86 processor family with P-core and E-core versions aimed at compute-intensive and high-density workloads, respectively. Disclosed capabilities include DDR5 and MRDIMM support, AMX for AI workloads, QAT for cryptography and compression offload, and TDX hardware security. Intel’s networking and infrastructure offerings include E800/E600 Ethernet controllers and adapters, programmable IPUs, and FlexRAN software and cloud-RAN platforms for 5G.[10]+4

Intel also describes data-center GPUs in development, including Crescent Island for inference workloads and Jaguar Shores as a next-generation GPU. Its foundry offering includes semiconductor manufacturing for external customers; Intel reported Intel 18A in high-volume production in 2026 and 18A-P in risk production from June 2026. Financial performance is reported by segments such as Client Computing and Data Center and AI, rather than as revenue percentages for individual named products.[15]+4 [2]+12

Geographic presence

Intel is headquartered in Santa Clara, California. Its key manufacturing fabs are in Oregon and Arizona in the United States, Ireland, and Israel. Key assembly-and-test facilities are in China, New Mexico, Vietnam, and Malaysia; New Mexico is also a key advanced-packaging site, and Intel has been building an advanced-packaging facility in Malaysia.[20][4]

Intel’s broader manufacturing footprint spans North America (Arizona, California, New Mexico, Ohio, and Oregon), Europe (Ireland), and Asia (China, Israel, Malaysia, and Vietnam). The available annual-report evidence does not provide a customer-location breakdown of revenue or employee distribution by geography.[21][22] [20]+3

Business segments

Intel’s current reportable segments are Client Computing Group (CCG), Data Center and AI (DCAI), and Intel Foundry. CCG focuses on client computing products, including notebook and desktop products; DCAI on data-center, server, and AI products; and Intel Foundry on semiconductor manufacturing and foundry services. In FY2025, reported segment revenues were $32.228 billion for CCG (about 61% of consolidated revenue), $16.919 billion for DCAI (about 32%), and $17.826 billion for Intel Foundry (about 34%). These percentages use each segment’s reported revenue divided by consolidated revenue; segment revenue includes intersegment activity, so the percentages do not sum to 100%.[23]+2

Intel also presents Intel Products, comprising CCG and DCAI, separately from All Other. All Other is not one of the three reportable segments and includes Mobileye, IMS, and other non-reportable businesses; it also included Altera results until Intel deconsolidated Altera in September 2025.[26]+2 [23]+8

Company history

Intel was founded on July 18, 1968, by Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, initially as NM Electronics. Its early focus included semiconductor memory: the 1103 DRAM was introduced in 1970, followed in 1971 by the 4004, which Intel describes as the first commercially available microprocessor.[29]+2

The 8086, introduced in 1978, became the basis for Intel’s x86 architecture. The company shifted away from memory toward microprocessors in the 1980s, marked by the 386 launch and its exit from DRAM in 1985. Later product milestones included the Pentium in 1993, Centrino in 2003, and Core 2 Duo in 2006.[32]+5

Intel completed its acquisition of Altera in 2015 and Mobileye in 2017; McAfee later became a standalone company in 2017. Across subsequent CEO transitions, Andy Grove succeeded Gordon Moore in 1987, followed by leaders including Craig Barrett, Paul Otellini, Brian Krzanich, Bob Swan, and Pat Gelsinger. In 2024, Intel launched Intel Foundry and announced Altera as a standalone FPGA company. Intel’s 2026 second-quarter report said its first products made on the 18A process had been released earlier that year.[38]+10 [10]+19
