The firm’s operating revenues totaled a loss of $145 million, down 115 percent from revenue of $950 million in the same period of the previous year. The firm’s net revenues were similarly down 118 percent, from revenue of $786 million to a net loss of $139 million.

On the other hand, the division of labor with AMD’s embedded processors performed exactly the opposite. This division increased its revenues by 163 percent to $1.6 billion. The money put into the safe by this division was 798 million dollars.Lisa Su: A very good quarter
