AMD Stock Falls After Disappointing Guidance

AMD reported stronger-than-expected second-quarter results driven by sustained server-processor demand, but warned that growth momentum will slow. Q2 revenue rose about 50% to $11.54 billion and adjusted EPS increased 246% to $1.66. Shares fell roughly 9% in after-hours trading despite the gains. AMD said it expects next-quarter revenue between $12.7 billion and $13.3 billion and a maintained adjusted gross margin near 56%. The company is preparing shipments of a second generation of AI servers and has business ties with AI developer Anthropic (including chip orders totaling two gigawatts and an equity commitment of up to $5 billion). AMD remains the world’s second-largest AI-processor supplier after Nvidia.
