The company at the time
AMD designs processors for computers and graphics chips, competing mainly with Intel and NVIDIA. Its sales fell sharply in 2015 as it lost ground in PCs, it had lost money four years in a row, and it had more debt than cash. To raise money, it had agreed to sell most of its chip testing and packaging plants to a Chinese partner. It was preparing a new processor design, code-named Zen, which it said would reach the market soon and would be much faster than its current chips.
Information available at the time
The same numbers as on company pages, as they had been reported by March 1, 2016. Sector medians aren't shown because StockLab doesn't have them as they stood back then.
Revenue, growth, profit and cash flow are for fiscal year 2015 (ended December 2015), the latest full year in an annual report filed by then; cash and debt come from the latest report (its date is on the card). Results announced after that aren't in these cards yet, even if the story above mentions them, so their numbers can differ.
