try to take the Intel guidance literally

When Andy Bryant was asked about outlook for the second half, he said (I am paraphrasing),
“I think you can look at the second half in the past few years compared to the first half
and that would be an accurate picture of what we expect for 2H99."

Putting that with the forecast for a 60% margin for the year
and slightly higher revenues for 3Q99, leads to this:

in billions 1995 1996 1997 1998 Total 96-98 1999
Rev1Q 3.560 4.644 6.448 6.001 20.653 7.103

Rev2Q 3.890 4.621 5.960 5.927 20.398 6.750

Rev1H 7.450 9.265 12.408 11.928 41.051 13.853

Rev3Q 4.171 5.142 6.155 6.731 22.199 6.800

Rev4Q 4.580 6.440 6.507 7.614 25.141 9.175

Rev2H 8.751 11.582 12.662 14.345 47.340 15.975

R2H vs R1H 117.46% 125.01% 102.05% 120.26% 115.32% 115.32%

Total Rev 16.201 20.847 25.070 26.273 29.762
gmY 60%
GP 17.857

The bold numbers are the estimates based on
using 6.8B rev for 3Q99 and 60% gross margin for the entire year.

Process Boy,

< Intel met its internal goals....>

Which of course is what really matters.

Perhaps all the head lines should be revised to say, Industry Analysts Miss Earnings by 2 cents <ggg>.
