AMD Reports First Quarter 2018 Financial Results, Revenue up 40%

It's been a long time coming, but Ryzen and Epyc finally turnaround losses into profits, revenue has risen by 40% in turnover compared to 2017, and 23 percent up from Q4 2017. AMD has published its figures for the first quarter of 2018. 

AMD was able to gain 1.65 billion dollars in revenue that leads towards $81 million profit, which is a very nice improvement compared to the $33 million loss the company had a year before. The biggest chunk of revenue was found at the Computing and Graphics segment. Turnover increased by 95 percent compared to the previous year to 1.12 billion dollars. The turnover of the Enterprise, Embedded and Semi-Custom segment fell by 12 percent to 532 million.

AMD indicates that the good figures are related to the good sales of the Ryzen, Radeon and Epyc products. The company expects to generate a turnover of $ 1.725 billion in the next quarter.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. 4/25/2018

AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) today announced revenue for the first quarter of 2018 of $1.65 billion, operating income of $120 million, net income of $81 million, and diluted earnings per share of $0.08. On a non-GAAP(1) basis, operating income was $152 million, net income was $121 million, and diluted earnings per share was $0.11.

 

 

“The first quarter was an outstanding start to 2018 with 40 percent year-over-year revenue growth,” said Dr. Lisa Su, AMD president and CEO. “PC, gaming and datacenter adoption of our new, high-performance products continues to accelerate. We are excited about our long-term roadmaps and focused on delivering sustained revenue growth and profitability.”

Q1 2018 Results

  • All AMD financial results are reported under the new revenue recognition accounting standard, ASC 606, with prior period financial results adjusted for comparison purposes.
  • Revenue was $1.65 billion, up 40 percent year-over-year and 23 percent quarter-over-quarter, driven primarily by higher revenue in the Computing and Graphics segment.
  • Gross margin was 36 percent, up 4 percentage points year-over-year and 2 percentage points quarter-over-quarter.  The gross margin percentage increase was driven by a greater percentage of revenue from Ryzen™, Radeon™ and EPYC™products.
  • On a GAAP basis, operating income was $120 million compared to operating income of $11 million a year ago and an operating loss of $2 million in the prior quarter.
  • Net income was $81 million compared to net losses of $33 million a year ago and $19 million in the prior quarter. Diluted earnings per share was $0.08, compared to losses per share of $0.04 a year ago and $0.02 in the prior quarter.

Quarterly Financial Segment Summary

  • Computing and Graphics segment revenue was $1.12 billion, up 95 percent year-over-year and 23 percent quarter-over-quarter, primarily driven by strong sales of Radeon and Ryzen products.
    • Client processor average selling price (ASP) increased year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter due to a greater percentage of revenue from our Ryzen products.
    • GPU ASP increased year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter driven by a greater percentage of revenue from our new Radeon products.
    • Operating income was $138 million, compared to an operating loss of $21 million a year ago and operating income of $33 million in the prior quarter. Operating income improvement was driven by higher revenue.
  • Enterprise, Embedded and Semi-Custom (EESC) segment revenue was $532 million, down 12 percent year-over-year due to lower semi-custom revenue, partially offset by higher server and embedded revenue. EESC segment revenue was up 23 percent quarter-over-quarter, driven by semi-custom, embedded and EPYC processor revenue.
    • Operating income was $14 million, compared to operating income of $55 million a year ago and an operating loss of $13 million in the prior quarter. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a licensing guru gain that occurred in Q1 2017.  The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily due to higher revenue.

Excellent!

Noteworthy also operating income Q1 2018 vs. Q1 2017:

120 M vs. 11 M

-> operating income increased by more than tenfold.

Also operating expenses were actually lowered versus previous year and previous quarter.
