AMD Poised to Surpass Intel in Revenue for First Time Driven by AI Boom
Yahoo Finance ·
Advanced Micro Devices is on track to outsell Intel for the first time in history, fueled by strong artificial intelligence demand and robust third-quarter performance. AMD posted record third-quarter revenue of $13.4 billion, representing a 45 percent increase that surpassed Wall Street expectations. Data center chip sales nearly doubled to $8.5 billion, now accounting for 64 percent of total revenue. For the upcoming fourth quarter, AMD guided sales to approximately $17 billion, outperforming Intel’s projected range of $15 billion to $16 billion. Furthermore, the company anticipates an 80 percent surge in sales by 2027, driven by expanding data center infrastructure. This impressive trajectory highlights the sharp contrast between AMD, which is successfully capitalizing on the artificial intelligence wave, and Intel, which continues to struggle with persistent weakness in the personal computer market and limited exposure to high-growth artificial intelligence sectors.

DYAX 전담 분석
AMD's Q4 revenue guidance ($1.7 billion) is expected to exceed Intel's ($1.5-1.6 billion), signaling that leadership in the AI chip market is tilting toward AMD. In particular, data center revenue nearly doubled year-over-year, accounting for 64% of total revenue and driving margin expansion.
The bullish scenario is the continuous expansion of AI and data center chip shipments toward the 80% revenue growth target presented by 2027, while the bearish scenario is the prolonged slump in the PC market and data center infrastructure investment entering a stagnation phase. Key metrics to watch are the margin rate of the data center segment and AI chip order trends from big tech companies.
