Intel's Q4 Results Exceed Expectations but Guidance Falls Short
- Strong Performance: Intel reported non-GAAP adjusted earnings of $0.15 per share and sales of $13.7 billion in Q4, surpassing market expectations of $0.08 earnings and $13.4 billion sales, demonstrating resilience in a competitive landscape.
