Report of Ernst & Young LLP,
independent auditors
The Board of Directors and
Stockholders, Intel Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Intel Corporation as of December 27, 1997 and December 28, 1996, and the
related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 27,
1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position
of Intel Corporation at December 27, 1997 and December 28, 1996, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 27, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
