Economic Times · 8m

Intel Corp is reportedly considering various scenarios, with the assistance of investment bankers, including a potential split of its design and manufacturing businesses. The discussions come as the company faces a challenging period and explores options to revive its fortunes. Investment banks Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are said to be advising Intel on potential strategies, which may also involve M&A activities. While no major moves are imminent, the options are expected to be presented during a board meeting in September. Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger has previously viewed the company's foundry division as crucial to its comeback, but a separation or sale of this unit is now being considered.
