AMD Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

(Auszug aus der Pressemitteilung)

AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter revenue was a record $7.7 billion, gross margin was 40%, operating loss was $134 million, net income was $872 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.54. On a non-GAAP(*) basis, gross margin was 43%, operating income was $897 million, net income was $781 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.48. As previously announced, our second quarter results were impacted by the U.S. Government’s export control on our AMD Instinct MI308 data center GPU products. For the quarter, these restrictions led to approximately $800 million in inventory and related charges. Excluding these charges, non-GAAP gross margin would have been approximately 54%.

“We delivered strong revenue growth in the second quarter led by record server and PC processor sales,” said Dr. Lisa Su, AMD Chair and CEO. “We are seeing robust demand across our computing and AI product portfolio and are well positioned to deliver significant growth in the second half of the year, driven by the ramp of our AMD Instinct MI350 series accelerators and ongoing EPYC and Ryzen processor share gains.”

“We achieved 32% year-over-year revenue growth and generated record free cash flow this quarter, reflecting our disciplined execution,” said Jean Hu, AMD EVP, CFO and Treasurer. “Our strategic investments across hardware, software and systems position us well to support robust future growth and drive long-term shareholder value.”

GAAP Quarterly Financial Results

Non-GAAP(*) Quarterly Financial Results

Segment Summary

• Data Center segment revenue was $3.2 billion, up 14% year-over-year primarily driven by strong demand for AMD EPYC processors more than offsetting headwinds impacting AMD Instinct MI308 shipments to China.
• Client and Gaming segment revenue was $3.6 billion, up 69% year-over-year. Client revenue was a record $2.5 billion, up 67% year-over-year primarily driven by strong demand for the latest “Zen 5” AMD Ryzen desktop processors and a richer product mix. Gaming revenue was $1.1 billion, up 73% year-over-year driven by an increase in semi-custom revenue and strong AMD Radeon GPU demand.
• Embedded segment revenue was $824 million, down 4% year-over-year as demand in end markets remained mixed.

Current Outlook

AMD’s outlook statements are based on current expectations. The following statements are forward-looking and actual results could differ materially depending on market conditions and the factors set forth under “Cautionary Statement” below.

For the third quarter of 2025, AMD expects revenue to be approximately $8.7 billion, plus or minus $300 million. At the mid-point of the revenue range, this represents year-over-year growth of approximately 28% and sequential growth of approximately 13%. Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be approximately 54%. Our current outlook does not include any revenue from AMD Instinct MI308 shipments to China as our license applications are currently under review by the U.S. Government.
