    On April 24, local time, after the U.S. stock market closed on April 23, Intel officially released its Q1 fiscal year 2026 financial report and held an earnings call. The company delivered its sixth consecutive quarter of better-than-expected results, with revenue, gross margin, and earnings per share all surpassing guidance. The AI business has become the core growth engine, with a surge in demand for server CPUs and advancements in advanced processes and packaging exceeding expectations. Following this financial report, Intel's stock price surged nearly 20% in after-hours trading. During the earnings call, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger stated that despite continuous improvements in factory capacity, demand across all business segments remains higher than supply, particularly for Xeon server CPUs, which are expected to maintain strong growth momentum over the next two years. Gelsinger also noted, 'In recent years, the focus in high-performance computing has been almost entirely on graphics processors and other accelerators. In recent months, clear signs have shown that central processing units are becoming an indispensable foundation in the era of artificial intelligence.' Looking at the overall market, Gelsinger anticipates that driven by explosive growth in AI demand, the overall potential market size of the semiconductor industry is approaching $1 trillion. However, Intel's management also warned that the company still faces multiple pressures, including declining demand in the PC market, rising costs, expanding capital expenditures, and supply constraints.
