REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders, Intel Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Intel Corporation as of December 26, 2009 and December
27, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 26, 2009. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at
Part IV, Item 15. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Intel Corporation at December 26, 2009 and December 27, 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and
its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 26, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Notes 3 and 27 to the consolidated financial statements, Intel Corporation changed its method of accounting
for convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features during 2009, its method of accounting for sabbatical leave as of
December 31, 2006, and its method of accounting for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2006.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
Intel Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 26, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal
Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our
report dated February 22, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
