Designs and manufactures processors in its own fabrication plants, and is building a contract foundry business to fill them.
Intel (INTC) scores 1.4 out of 10 as of September 13, 2026, computed from its reported financial statements. That reads as low quality. The reading rests on predictability, and profitability is what holds it back.
2 pillars, solvency and growth, are unscored because the filings behind them carry too little to judge. Each is shown as a dash rather than a zero, and the overall score is the weighted average of what could be scored.
Data provided by Twelve Data. Scores are computed by Lemma Analysis from reported financials.
This is the clearest case in large-cap technology of a household name attached to difficult financials, which is exactly what a quality score is for. Building fabrication capacity is among the most capital-intensive undertakings in any industry, so efficiency and solvency carry the reading while profitability recovers or does not. A score well below the sector here is not a measurement error. It is the point.
How much profit the company generates from its capital and sales.
The company’s ability to service debt and meet its obligations.
How fast revenue, earnings and cash flow are compounding.
How well assets and earnings convert into cash and output.
How stable and consistent results have been over time.
Each metric is scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks, where higher is better. Metrics roll up into five pillars, and the pillars combine into the overall score using the weights shown. Sector-sensitive metrics are judged relative to peers in the same sector.
This score is a systematic, backward-looking read of reported fundamentals. It does not judge valuation, management quality, competitive moat, or future prospects, and can be distorted by one-off items or unusual accounting. Treat it as a starting point, not a recommendation.
Educational only. Not investment advice.
On this reading Intel scores 1.4 out of 10, which reads as low quality. Its strongest pillar is predictability, its weakest is profitability. Quality is not the same as a good investment: the score says nothing about the price you would pay.
Five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks and then weighted into one overall reading: profitability, solvency, growth, efficiency and predictability. Everything comes from reported financials, and nothing comes from price, sentiment or forecasts.
It was last recomputed on September 13, 2026. The score moves with the financial statements, i.e. quarterly, so this page changes when a new filing changes the answer rather than on a schedule. Live figures for INTC are in the app.
No. Quality and valuation are separate questions, and a good business at the wrong price is still a bad purchase. Score the business here, then price it with a DCF you control.
Inside Lemma Analysis the same five pillars run on every company we cover, with the metrics behind each one, current fundamentals, a DCF you control and a watchlist that tells you when the price catches up.
