In context
“sh equivalents and short-term investment was $12.3 billion. In the quarter, we repurchased 1.1 million shares and returned $221 million to shareholders. We ended the quarter with $9.2 billion authorization remaining under our share repurchase program. Now turning to our second quarter 2026 outlook. We expect revenue to be approximately $11.2 billion, plus or minus $300 million. At the middle of our guidance, revenue is expected to be up 46% year-over-year driven by a very strong growth in our Data Center segment, growth in our Client and Gaming segment and a double-digit growth in our Embedded segment. Sequentially, we expect revenue to be up approximately 9% driven by double-digit growth in both our Data Center and the Embedded segments and modest growth in our Client and Gaming segment. In addition, we expect second quarter non-GAAP gross margin to be approximately 56%, non-GAAP operating expenses to be approximately $3.3 billion, non-GAAP other income and expense to be a gain of approximately $60 million. Non-GAAP effective tax rate to be 13%, and the diluted share count is expected to be approximately 1.66 billion shares. In closing, the first quarter of 2026 was an outstanding quarter for AMD, reflecting strong momentum across the business with accelerated revenue and earnings expansion. We are very well positioned to build on the momentum as we scale our Data Center business, expand margins, drive continued earnings growth and the long-term shareholder value creation.
