Intel Says Customers Preparing to Test New Production Technology
Intel Corp., trying to break into an outsourced chipmaking market dominated by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., said prospective clients are preparing to try out its new production process. The company's new 14A technology will follow 18A, which is on schedule to go into production in the second half of this year. 'Multiple customers have expressed their intent to build test chips on the new process node,' Intel said in a statement released ahead of its Foundry Direct Connect event Tuesday.

Intel to announce plans this week to cut over 20% of staff
Intel Corp. is poised to announce plans this week to cut more than 20% of its staff, aiming to eliminate bureaucracy at the struggling chipmaker, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. The move is part of a bid to streamline management and rebuild an engineering-driven culture, according to the person, who asked not to be identified because the plans are private. It would be the first major restructuring under new Chief Executive Officer Lip-Bu Tan, who took the helm last month. The cutbacks follow an effort last year to slash about 15,000 jobs — a round of layoffs announced in August. Intel had 108,900 employees at the end of 2024, down from 124,800 the previous year. A representative for Intel declined to comment. Follow the The Big Take daily podcast on Apple, Spotify or anywhere you listen. Intel shares rose as much as 3.5% in premarket trading before New York exchanges opened on Wednesday. The stock has declined about 43% in the past 12 months and closed at $19.51 on Tuesday. Tan is aiming to turn around the iconic chipmaker after years of Intel ceding ground to rivals. The Santa Clara, California-based company lost its technological edge and has struggled to catch up with Nvidia Corp. in artificial intelligence computing. That contributed to three straight years of sales declines and mounting red ink. Tan, a veteran of Cadence Design Systems Inc., has vowed to spin off Intel assets that aren't central to its mission and create more compelling products. Last week, the company agreed to sell a 51% stake in its programmable chips unit Altera to Silver Lake Management, a step toward that goal. Intel needs to replace the engineering talent it has lost, improve its balance sheet and better attune manufacturing processes to the needs of potential customers, Tan said last month at the Intel Vision conference. The company is scheduled to report first-quarter results on Thursday, giving Tan an opportunity to lay out more of his strategy. Though the worst of Intel's revenue declines are now behind it, according to Wall Street estimates, analysts aren't projecting a return to its previous sales levels for years, if ever. The 65-year-old executive was hired after last year's ouster of CEO Pat Gelsinger, who struggled to execute his own turnaround bid for Intel. He had embarked on a costly effort to expand the company's factory network — and sought to turn Intel into a made-to-order chip manufacturer. But Intel has now delayed much of its expansion effort, including plans for an Ohio facility that was once expected to become the world's largest chip production hub. Intel also had been poised to be the biggest beneficiary of money from the 2022 Chips and Science Act, but that program is now in flux under President Donald Trump. A manufacturing partnership with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. — the source of investor speculation in recent months — also seems less likely to happen. TSMC CEO C. C. Wei said last week that the company would remain focused on its own business. Along the way, Intel missed out on the most lucrative new field for the chip industry in decades. The company, which long dominated the market for personal computer and data center processors, was slow to respond to the shift to AI. That upheaval allowed Nvidia to grow from a niche player into the world's most valuable semiconductor company — with revenue that now eclipses Intel's sales. Gelsinger himself admitted that the company had lost its competitive spirit and expressed frustration with the speed at which it reacted to a changing market. He wasn't given the time he'd said he would need to do something about that. Tan, in his first public appearance as CEO last month, said the turnaround would take time and wouldn't be easy. 'It won't happen overnight,' he said. 'But I know we can get there.' (Updates with premarket share reaction in fifth paragraph.)
