As Intel electronics company goes, so goes Costa Rica. When the news was released by its Santa Clara, CA, headquarters that the worldwide company had posted its best second quarter profits ever, this country felt deep satisfaction. The firm, with its sizable operation here in Costa Rica, is a bright spot in the national export picture.
The company reported a profit of $10.8 billion over last year, a jump of 34%. It also reported a $4 billion operating income, a net income of $2.9 billion and an EPS of $.51.

(The amicus curiae means literally "a friend of the court" and is essentially testimony not solicited by either party in a court case.)
