DChip giant Intel Continue to benefit from the increased demand for personal computers from the corona pandemic. In the last quarter alone, Intel’s notebook processor sales increased by 40% over the same period last year. However, at the same time, the company announced after the US market was closed on Thursday that its data center business was down year-on-year.
Comprehensive sales remained basically unchanged at 19.6 billion U.S. dollars. The profit was US$5.06 billion, a decrease of 0.8% from the previous year.
Due to the low average price of chip sales, the group’s personal computer division’s revenue increased by 6.4% to 10.1 billion U.S. dollars, which was significantly lower than the number of units.
Revenue from the data center business fell by 9.3% within a year to $6.45 billion. Intel has recently gained more competition in this area-and saw the initial surge in demand for new servers partly saturated during the corona crisis.
Investors let Intel’s stock price fall by 2% in after-hours trading.
