Intel's stock price fell over 15% in after-hours trading on Thursday after the company released its third-quarter earnings report and warned investors that the slowdown in the PC market would continue to impact future profitability, with the weak PC market expected to persist until 2027. Although revenue growth was driven by a 21% increase in its data center and AI businesses, the weak outlook overshadowed this performance. Intel also issued below-expectations fourth-quarter guidance, projecting revenue between $15 billion and $16 billion.
