BALANCE SHEET-INTEL BALANCE SHEET-AMD STOCK PRICES DRIVING ISSUES IN THE INDUSTRY COMPANYS ASSESSMENTS GOING FORWARD (SWOT ANALYSIS) RECOMMENDATIONS INTRODUCTION It can be assumed
that two companies in the same industry might have their similar characteristics. This could be considered true of the high-tech industry. Because barriers to entry in such an industry are
so high (requiring a trained workforce, fabrication plants and plenty of materials to manufacture microchips), companies could be considered to have the same characteristics. In this paper, well compare two
such companies, Intel and Advanced Micro Devices. Well examine the financial information for both companies and provide an analysis of the industry. At the end of this paper, well offer
a comparison, and determine whether these particular companies have stock that a potential investor should purchase, hold or sell. COMPANY OVERVIEWS Intel Corp. is the leading semiconductor chip-making
company (Intel Corporation, 2008). More than 80% of personal computers in use contain, or are based on Intel architecture microprocessors (Intel Corporation, 2008). The company develops
digital technology platforms and integrated circuits for original equipment manufacturers, original design manufacturers, PC and network communications products users and other manufacturers (Intel Corporation, 2008). The company operates
in the Americas and Asia Pacific (Intel Corporation, 2008). Located in Santa Clara, CA, Intel Corp. employs 86,300 people (Intel Corporation, 2008). Advanced Micro
Devices (or AMD, as its also known) is also a global semiconductor - but unlike its competition Intel, AMD has facilities worldwide (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., 2007). AMD provides
processing maerials and solutions for computing, graphics and consumer electronics markets (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., 2007). The company is a strong player in the microprocessor and PC market - but
