Intel on Thursday published its financial results for the second quarter of 2026, posting revenue of $16.1 billion — a 25% rise year-over-year — amid high demand for client and data center products. The company also said that due to extraordinary demand for its own CPUs, it will initiate mass production using its 14A (1.4nm-class) fabrication technology in 2028, which is in line with TSMC's plans for its A14 process technology.
"With encouraging external customer progress and increased demand for our internal products, we remain on track for 14A risk production for our internal products in the second half of 2027, and we made the decision in Q2 to fully commit to high volume ramp in 2028," said Lip-Bu Tan, chief executive of Intel, during the company's earnings call with financial analysts and investors.
