The results are in and things are looking good for AMD. According to their earnings report for the second quarter of 2020, the company enjoyed a year-over-year revenue boost of 26%. Income from computing and graphics components for PCs and laptops also came at a whopping $1.37 billion, beating Wall Street expectations by 45%.

On Tuesday, July 28, the company’s shares surged by close to 10% in extended hours trading shortly after the news. Here are the other important metrics mentioned in the report:

 

– Earnings per share of 13 cents versus analysts’ expectations for 16 cents

– Revenue of $1.93 billion versus analysts’ expectations for $1.86 billion

– Strong Q3 guidance: $2.55 billion in revenue versus expectations for $2.23 billion

 

According to AMD’s CEO Lisa Su, the PC market is expected to expand even further throughout the second half of 2020. She also revealed that two of its partners—Microsoft and Sony—will be releasing new products featuring AMD components sometime later this year.

 

“We expect strong second-half semi-custom growth as we ready production to support the holiday launches of the new PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X consoles.”
