(Reuters) -Chipmaker Intel Corp said on Thursday it still faces supply chain constraints and gave an annual sales forecast that implied a weak end of the year.

The 2021 forecast of $73.5 billion in adjusted sales was higher than Wall Street expectations, appeared driven by a strong second quarter ended June 26 and a modestly better-than-expected third-quarter, implying a weak fourth quarter. The results sent shares down 2.8% in after-hours trading after the results.
