  • Intel Shares Drop on Weak Q1 Forecast, Manufacturing Challenges Persist
    January 23, 2026, 7:01 AM EST. Intel's stock fell sharply after the company forecasted weaker-than-expected first-quarter results, signaling continuing manufacturing execution challenges. CEO Lip-Bu Tan framed the recovery as a multiyear effort, with Q1 revenue projected between $11.7 billion and $12.7 billion and adjusted earnings expected to break even, disappointing investors expecting modest profits. CFO Dave Zinsner highlighted low chip production yields limiting supply, with improvements expected only gradually after Q1. Fourth-quarter revenue dropped 4.1% to $13.7 billion, and gross margins fell to 37.9%, set to decline further. Despite investor enthusiasm from new product launches and governmental backing, Intel cautioned that meaningful operational improvements and margin recovery will take time, emphasizing execution risk and ongoing supply constraints.
