Why Did Intel Stock Drop Friday?
Yahoo Finance ·
Intel ( INTC -6.09% ) stock dropped 4% through 1:25 p.m. ET Friday after reporting Q2 earnings last night. But here's the thing: Intel's news seemed pretty good. Heading into the report, analysts expected Intel to earn $0.21 per share (pro forma) on sales of $14.3 billion. Intel actually earned twice what it was expected to -- $0.42 per share. Its sales also topped estimates at $16.1 billion. Intel grew its sales 25% year over year, the company's best performance in nearly 15 years. Earnings news was more mixed. On the one hand, Intel beat estimates by 2x. On the other hand, these were only non-GAAP earnings -- not earnings calculated under generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ). When calculated under GAAP, Intel didn't earn a profit at all; it lost $2.16 per share, a result significantly worse than many investors may have expected after hearing Intel "beat earnings."
