What Intel does
Intel designs and makes processors, the main chips that run personal computers and the servers in data centers, along with AI chips, networking chips and custom chips. It sells mostly to computer makers, contract manufacturers that build computers for other brands, and cloud computing companies, which put its chips in products used by consumers, businesses and governments. It makes most of its own chips in its own factories.
Revenue was $52.9 billion in 2025. Its products business, made up of chips for PCs (the Client Computing Group) and for data centers and AI, brought in $49.1 billion. Its third segment, Intel Foundry, develops manufacturing processes and makes chips; nearly all of its work is for Intel itself, but it is trying to win outside customers. Its three largest customers made up 43% of revenue. Intel names AMD as its main rival in PC and server chips, Apple, Qualcomm and MediaTek in PC chips, Nvidia in AI chips, and TSMC and Samsung in chipmaking for others.
2025 brought big changes. The US government took a significant stake in the company in August, SoftBank and Nvidia bought new shares, and Intel sold 51% of its Altera chip unit. It also owns most of Mobileye, which makes driver-assistance systems. Intel cut its core workforce by about 15% under a restructuring plan.
