Boston, MA 01\/30\/2014 (wallstreetpr) – Advanced Micro Devices. Inc. (NYSE:AMD) share price dropped by a high of 12% despite posting descent Q4 results for F2013.

This was a slight increase compared to analysts\u2019 estimates of $1.54 billion. The drop in the share price can also be attributed to a low net income of $45 million or 0.06 per share that the company posted in the fourth quarter. The company gross margin fell by one percent from 36 to 35%despite its low margin gaming console business continuing to forge ahead.<\/p>\n
