December 31, 2024 calculation

= -18.89%

The return on equity (ROE) of Intel Corporation has displayed a declining trend over the past few years. Starting at a relatively strong level of around 30% in early 2020, the ROE steadily decreased to approximately 20% by the end of 2021. However, the decline accelerated significantly thereafter, plummeting to negative figures in the following quarters of 2023 and 2024.

This downward trend in ROE suggests that Intel's ability to generate profits from shareholders' equity has deteriorated over time. The negative ROE in 2023 and 2024 indicates that the company's net income may not be sufficient to cover the shareholder equity, potentially signaling financial distress or inefficiencies in the company's operations.

Investors and stakeholders should closely monitor Intel's financial performance and management strategies to assess whether the company can reverse this trend and improve its ROE in the future.
