AMD posted a record $13.4 billion in revenue for the third quarter of 2026, marking a 45% increase compared to the same period last year. The surge was propelled by the company's Data Center segment, which brought in a record $8.5 billion, climbing 97% year over year. [2]
According to reports, the performance in data center operations was fueled by expanding customer demand for AMD's EPYC server processors as well as its Instinct MI450 Series GPUs.
