AFTER THE CLOSE

Intel net income down 35%, sales fall 12%

Intel Corp. said late Tuesday third-quarter profit plunged 35% as the chipmaker faced stiffer competition from its smaller rival, Advanced Micro Devices Inc. The world's largest maker of computer chips said net income for the three months ended Sept. 30 fell to $1.3 billion, or 22 cents a share, from $2 billion, or 32 cents a share, for the same period a year earlier. Sales fell 12% to $8.7 billion, down from $9.96 billion. The results were better than what Wall Street had expected. Analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call expected the company to post earnings of 18 cents a share on revenue of $8.62 billion.

Motorola profit lower; sales short of forecast

Motorola Inc. on Tuesday set another record for handset shipments in the third quarter but earnings fell slightly below the company's target. Late Tuesday, Motorola reported a third-quarter profit of $968 million, or 39 cents a share, down from $1.75 billion, or 69 cents a share, a year ago. Revenue rose 17% to $10.6 billion from $9.05 billion. The technology giant shipped a record 53.7 million wireless phones, but some analysts were expecting an even stronger performance. Excluding onetime gains and losses, Motorola would have earned 34 cents a share. The company was expected to earn 34 cents a share on revenue of $11.07 billion, according to an analyst survey by Thomson First Call.

Yahoo profit falls 37%; sales minus traffic costs up 20%

Yahoo Inc. reported late Tuesday that third-quarter profit fell 37%, as higher advertising sales at its collection of Internet sites weren't enough to offset stock options costs and higher expenses. The Sunnyvale, Calif-based company said net income for the three months ending in September fell to $158.5 million, or 11 cents a share, from $253.8 million, or 17 cents, a year ago, when Yahoo, like most technology companies, didn't include option costs on its income statement.

Analysts polled by Thomson First Call had expected per-share earnings of 21 cents
