Are there any upcoming earnings releases or guidance updates that could be impacted?

Short answer: The news article you supplied does not mention any specific upcoming earnings release dates or guidance updates for Intel (ticker INTC). However, the timing of the story (July 7 2024 UTC) coincides with a period in which Intel normally reports its second‑quarter fiscal‑2025 results and often provides guidance for the third quarter and the full‑year outlook, so those upcoming releases are the most likely to be affected by the market sentiment surrounding the Trump‑related headline.


Why the upcoming earnings/guidance timeline matters

Period (Fiscal) Typical reporting window (2023‑2024 pattern) What is typically announced
Q2 FY2025 (covering April‑June 2025) Mid‑July to early August (usually the first week of August) Q2 revenue, net income, EPS, and often Q3 outlook (revenue, gross‑margin, capital‑expenditure guidance).
Q3 FY2025 (July‑September) Late September / early October Q3 results and full‑year FY2025 guidance (sometimes the annual outlook).
Annual FY2025 (Oct‑Dec) Early‑mid 2025 Full‑year results and full‑year forward guidance (often in February‑March 2025 for FY2025).

Given that the news article was published August 7, 2025, Intel’s Q2 FY2025 earnings release is either just about to be announced or has already been released (the exact date varies each year but historically falls in the first week of August). Because the headline is about a high‑profile political figure demanding the CEO’s resignation, investors and analysts will be especially attentive to:

  • Any guidance revisions that may be disclosed alongside the quarterly results (e.g., revenue outlook, gross‑margin targets, cap‑ex plans).
  • Management commentary about leadership stability, board actions, and succession planning—especially since investors may view the CEO’s “fit” as a material risk.
  • Analyst conferences or earnings‑call presentations that include a “Q&A” session, where analysts may explicitly ask about the impact of the political pressure on the company’s strategic roadmap (e.g., “Will the CEO’s departure affect the 2025‑2026 product‑launch timeline?”).

What to watch for in the immediate upcoming timeframe

Event Expected Timing (2025) Why it matters after the Trump statement
Intel Q2 FY2025 earnings release (press release + earnings call) Early‑August 2025 (typically early‑week) Any revision to Q3 revenue guidance, capital‑expenditure plans, or comments on leadership stability will be scrutinized.
Quarter‑by‑quarter guidance (Q3 & FY2025) Typically included within the Q2 earnings package A downgrade could intensify share‑price pressure; an upgrade could help dampen the negative sentiment from the political headline.
Analyst/Investor Day or Conference Late‑August to early‑September (often after Q2 results) Analysts may ask for specifics on CEO succession; investors may look for a “re‑affirmed” management plan to offset political concerns.
SEC filing relating to board actions (e.g., 8‑K filing) Any time after the news, but likely within a week if any board‑level action is taken (e.g., a letter of intent from the CEO to step down, or a board endorsement). Any official filing would impact expectations for a leadership transition and any accompanying “guidance on transition costs”.

What you can do — Next‑step checklist for investors/analysts

  1. Check Intel’s Investor‑Relations calendar (investor.intel.com) for the exact date and time of the Q2 FY2025 earnings release. If the date is still pending, the company may issue a “pre‑announcement” with a preliminary date in an 8‑K; watch for this in the next 24‑48 hours.
  2. Search for any recent 8‑K filings (SEC) that might have been filed after the Trump statement. If a board‑level decision (e.g., a letter of resignation, resignation‑acceptance, or a “retention plan”) is filed, it will be publicly disclosed and can affect guidance.
  3. Monitor analyst notes and press‑release commentary that may accompany the earnings release. If analysts have already updated their revenue/EBITDA forecasts—particularly adjustments to the guidance—they tend to reference any “management‑risk” factor.
  4. Watch the earnings‑call transcript for a “CEO succession” or “board stability” segment. Historically, any major leadership change can “trigger” one‑off non‑GAAP charge (e.g., severance, retention bonuses), which will be disclosed in the “Non‑Recurring Items” section of the earnings release.
  5. Consider the impact on long‑term strategic projects (e.g., Intel’s IDM 2.0, AI‑centric chips, fab‑expansion) — investors often view the CEO’s ability to execute large, capital‑intensive programs as a crucial factor for 2025‑2026 growth. Guidance on capital‑expenditure (Cap‑ex) could be revised if board members doubt the current leadership’s ability to deliver.

Bottom‑line answer

  • No specific earnings‑release date or guidance update is directly mentioned in the provided article.
  • However, because Intel’s **Q2 FY2025 earnings release (and associated guidance for Q3‑FY2025 and the full‑year FY2025) are typically announced in early August, they are the most immediate and potentially impacted items.
  • **The political pressure (Trump’s demand for the CEO’s immediate resignation) may affect:
    • The tone and content of the upcoming earnings‑call commentary.
    • Any revision to guidance (revenue, gross‑margin, cap‑ex) disclosed alongside the quarterly results.
    • Subsequent analyst expectations and “risk‑factor” disclosures related to leadership stability.**

Action items: verify the exact date/time of the Q2 FY2025 earnings release and monitor any 8‑K filings or press releases that follow the Trump comment, as any adjustment to guidance released at that time will likely be directly impacted by the market concerns created by this headline.
