Intel: Still Buy-Rated – Confidence In 2024 Outperformance Spirals

Summary:

  • We remain buy-rated on Intel and remain confident about INTC’s potential to continue to outperform expectations through 1H24.
  • The PC market is already in recovery, and we expect the PC TAM to grow 5-8% Y/Y in 2024, driving more upside for CCG.
  • We also believe the traditional compute-server market will rebound in 2024, fueling further upside for its DCAI business.
  • While its foundry business will remain sub-scale and meaningful revenue is still a few years away, we believe investors will turn more positive as INTC executes its process roadmap.
  • We continue to see an attractive risk-reward profile for the stock at current levels.
