On July 19, Motley Fool Inside Value selection Intel
- Sales considerably lagged estimates, thanks to a price war and aggressive competition from Advanced Micro Devices
(NYSE:AMD) . Meanwhile, per-share earnings and gross margin beat expectations, offering evidence that Intel's restructuring efforts are already having an impact. - Nevertheless, the balance sheet worsened considerably, with skyrocketing debt, higher payables, and a plummeting cash balance due to increased investments, including a $600 million bet on WiMAX supplier Clearwire.
