(Reuters) - Intel Corp cut its third-quarter revenue estimate on Friday and withdrew its full-year forecast amid a decline in demand for its chips as customers reduce inventory and businesses buy fewer personal computers.
A revision of targets had been anticipated by many analysts after competitors such as Hewlett Packard and Dell Inc warned of slow demand for PCs last month, a development that has been compounded by a shaky global economy and consumers shifting toward tablets and smartphones.
But the cut by Intel, the world's largest chipmaker, was much more severe than analysts had expected.
The company said it now expects third-quarter revenue of $13.2 billion, plus or minus $300 million, down from its previous forecast of $13.8 billion to $14.8 billion.
