Intel First Quarter (2001) Revenue to be Below Expectation SANTA CLARA, Calif., Mar. 8, 2001 - Intel Corporation today announced that first quarter revenue is anticipated to be below the company's previous expectation. The economic slowdown affecting PC demand has continued and spread to the networking, communications and server sectors. The company now expects revenue for the first quarter to be down approximately 25 percent from fourth quarter revenue of $8.7 billion, lower than the previous outlook that first quarter revenue would be down 15 percent, plus or minus several points.

My Intel Inputs • Price approx. $61/share • annual sales growth=21.7% trending to 5% terminal growth over 20 years. • EPS = $1.72/share and Price = $61/share • set SGA and RD margins at best level from 5 year history, then lowered CGS to 35.4%, left the rest unchanged. • now lower sales growth to 19.4% in 2001 and smooth to 5% over 20 years. • implies $3,758,833 stock repurchase. • Price approx. $48/share • annual sales growth = 18.3% trending to 5% terminal growth over 20 years. • Price = $48 and EPS = $1.65 • set margins as in report, zero for depreciation, -.6% for Xord, gets NI of 11.5B. • sales growth = 16.2% in 2001 then trend to 5% over 20 years. • BUT too many shares repurchased, so EPS still off. (MS has 7000 outstanding). Can adjust BS to require more assets, or do a 10% stk dividend (set dilution factor to 2.1).
