Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) is a major semiconductor company that designs processors and graphics cards. It competes with firms like NVIDIA and Broadcom, especially in the growing data center market. AMD is set to release its earnings report on Tuesday, May 5, 2026, after the market closes.
Wall Street has an earnings per share (EPS) estimate of $1.30 for the quarter. This is closely aligned with the analyst consensus of $1.29 per share. This figure represents a significant increase from the $0.96 per share reported in the same quarter last year.
The revenue estimate for the quarter is $9.90 billion. This is supported by analyst expectations for $9.89 billion, up from $7.44 billion a year ago. The company has a strong track record, having beaten revenue estimates for the past 14 consecutive quarters.
As highlighted by Zacks, a key growth driver is the Data Center segment. Its revenue is projected to reach $5.56 billion, a 51.5% year-over-year increase. This surge is fueled by strong demand for AMD's EPYC CPUs and Instinct GPUs from AI and cloud service providers.
The company's valuation shows high investor expectations, with a Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 128.42. A high P/E can suggest investors anticipate strong future growth.
