Why the gap?

At $97.14 the market is pricing INTEL CORP as if revenue grows 89.4% a year. This valuation assumes it grows 10.3% a year. That single disagreement accounts for most of the distance between the two numbers — which makes it the first thing worth auditing.

What drives the base case

All three cases →

Intel's revenue fell every year from 2022 to 2025, dropping from $79 billion to $53 billion, but the last two quarters broke that streak, with the most recent quarter up 25% and the company guiding to more growth ahead. The engine is data-center and AI chips, which grew 59% last quarter, while the PC business grew a steadier 13%. The big drag is the factory arm, which lost $2.1 billion in the quarter — management says it needs only a few billion dollars of outside customer revenue to break even, and this case assumes it roughly gets there. Growth then settles into the high single digits as the AI surge matures, profitability recovers meaningfully, and heavy but no longer accelerating factory spending absorbs a substantial share of the cash generated.
