Intel Corp's second-quarter results blew past Wall Street's expectations and the chip maker gave a forecast for current-quarter revenue that also topped analysts' estimates.

Intel posted a net loss of $398 million, or 7 cents a share, after taking charges related to a $1.45 billion fine imposed by European regulators, which had ruled in May that the company had abused its market position to squeeze out rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc . Intel has said it intends to appeal the ruling.

Excluding the charges, Intel said on Tuesday it earned 18 cents a share in the second quarter, beating analysts' average forecast of 8 cents, according to Reuters Estimates.

The world's No.1 chip maker said revenue in the three months ending June 27 came to $8 billion, down 15 percent year-over-year, but well above the average forecast of $7.27 billion expected by analysts.

This time last year, Intel earned $1.6 billion in net income, or 28 cents a share.

Shares of Intel jumped 8 percent in after-hours trading.
