AMD Revenues Leap 36 Percent to $7.4 Billion

AMD posted a net income of $709 million on revenues of $7.4 billion in the quarter ending March 29, 2025. Those figures represent gains of 476 percent and 36 percent, respectively, year-over-year (YOY) thanks to big growth in datacenter sales.

“We delivered an outstanding start to 2025 as year-over-year growth accelerated for the fourth consecutive quarter driven by strength in our core businesses and expanding data center and AI momentum,” AMD chair and CEO Dr. Lisa Su said. “Despite the dynamic macro and regulatory environment, our first quarter results and second quarter outlook highlight the strength of our differentiated product portfolio and consistent execution positioning us well for strong growth in 2025.”

AMD’s Data Center segment delivered $3.7 billion in revenues, up 57 percent YOY, with growth primarily driven by sales of its EPYC CPU and Instinct GPU products.

Client and Gaming hit $2.9 billion in revenues, up 28 percent YOY, with Client (up 68 percent) accounting for $2.3 billion of that. Gaming revenue was down 30 percent YOY to $647 million. AMD credited strong demand for the latest Zen 5 Ryzen processors for the growth.

AMD’s Embedded segment added another $823 million in revenues, with the firm noting that “demand in end markets remained mixed.”

For the current quarter, AMD expects revenues in the $7.4 billion range, a bit above expectations. But AMD also noted that U.S. restrictions on sales to China will cost it an estimated $1.5 billion this year, up from the $800 million it predicted last month. This will impact revenues from AMD’s biggest and fastest-growing business segment, Data Center.
