Broadcom Beats Second-Quarter Views as AI Revenue More Than Doubles

Broadcom (AVGO) late Wednesday reported fiscal second-quarter results above Wall Street's estimates as the chip designer's artificial intelligence revenue more than doubled on the back of increased demand for custom accelerators and networking solutions.Adjusted earnings rose to $2.44 a share during the quarter through May 3 from $1.58 a year earlier, coming in ahead of the FactSet-polled consensus indicating $2.40. Revenue advanced 48% to $22.19 billion, above the Street's $22.13 billion view.AI semiconductor revenue soared 143% year-on-year to $10.8 billion, driven by custom accelerators and networking, Broadcom Chief Executive Hock Tan said in a statement."Broadcom achieved record revenue, operating profit and free cash flow in (the second quarter), driven by accelerating growth in AI semiconductor revenue and strong operating leverage," Tan said.The semiconductor solutions division's sales climbed 79% to $15.01 billion, while the infrastructure software segment increased 9% to $7.18 billion.For the third quarter, Broadcom anticipates total revenue growth of 84%, to about $29.4 billion, compared with the consensus estimate of $28.25 billion.AI semiconductor revenue is seen climbing more than 200% year-over-year to $16 billion in the third quarter, Tan said.Broadcom's stock fell 6.7% in after-hours trading, and had gained 38.5% this year through Wednesday close.Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Marvell Technology (MRVL) and Nvidia (NVDA) all beat revenue estimates in the most recent quarter, fueled by an ongoing AI boom that is driving unprecedented demand for data centers.

Nvidia's GTC Taipei Announcements Offer Significant Growth Potential, Truist Says

Nvidia's (NVDA) recent product announcements pose significant growth potential for the tech giant that marked its formal entry into the consumer PC processor market, Truist Securities said in a note emailed late Monday.Nvidia disclosed new semiconductor, system and software products at the GTC event in Taipei, Taiwan. The products included RTX Spark, a superchip for Windows laptops and desktops, and DGX Station, the AI deskside supercomputer for professionals.RTX Spark's launch would mark the tech giant's entry into the PC market.Nvidia's shares rallied 6.3% on Monday, and were up 0.4% intraday Tuesday.Nvidia's opportunity extends beyond the traditional central processing unit market where Intel (INTC) and AMD (AMD) compete today, Truist Managing Director William Stein said.Nvidia could capture significant growth in higher-cost graphics processing unit systems that "could be multiples of the client CPU market today," he wrote."We are most intrigued by the company's new DGX Station and RTX Spark computers that appear aimed at developing and running AI models locally without the need for datacenter resources," Stein wrote. "While it opens a significant (total addressable market for Nvidia), we believe the effort is more strategic, and focused on extending (its) reach into all aspects of AI model development, deployment, and processing."Truist reiterated its buy rating on Nvidia's stock with a price target of $307.Price: $225.53, Change: $+1.16, Percent Change: +0.52%

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target to $600 from $500, on a P/E of about 35x our 2028 EPS estimate, which is above its peers but below its historical forward averages. We see AMD closing the competitive gap with NVIDIA as it launches the MI450x Series in the second half of 2026, as it prepares to shift to rack-scale solutions, which offer data center server sales upside. We are also growing more optimistic about opportunities tied to CPU server demand, as we believe the rise of agentic AI shifts CPU-to-GPU ratios from traditional 1:4 or 1:8 in training toward 1:1 or higher in production deployments. Extending lead times and emerging industry-wide CPU shortage should support higher prices, and we see potential for 50%+ x86 server CPU market share over time. AMD's shift to large-scale rack-scale systems remains the biggest opportunity for the company in the coming years. Furthermore, we are encouraged by recent customer orders (Meta and Oracle), as we see a long tail opportunity over the next three to five years.
