Intel says stands pat on 3rd-qtr revenue forecast
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 8 (Reuters) - Intel Corp. <INTC.O>, the
world's No. 1 semiconductor manufacturer, said on Thursday it
was standing pat on its earlier forecast for third-quarter
revenue of $6.3 billion to $6.9 billion.
"There's no big surprises one way or the other," Andy
Bryant, Intel's chief financial officer, told Reuters, adding
that a good portion of the quarter's revenue will come in
September, due to the back-to-school shopping season.
Intel said on July 16, when it reported second-quarter
earnings, that it expected revenue in the third quarter to be
flat to slightly up from second-quarter revenue of $6.32
billion.
