$1.93 billion revenue, up 26 percent year-over-year

Driven by higher computing and graphics segment, the company’s revenue stood at $1.93 billion during Q2 2020. This represents 26 per cent year-over-year growth. It was up eight percent quarter-over-quarter primarily driven by higher enterprise, embedded and semi-custom segment revenue.

AMD’s operating income was $173 million compared to operating income of $59 million a year ago and $177 million in the prior quarter. Non-GAAP operating income was $233 million compared to operating income of $111 million a year ago and $236 million in the prior quarter. Operating income, as the company informed, improved year-over-year primarily driven by revenue growth and a greater percentage of Ryzen and EPYC processor sales.

“Gross margin was 44 per cent, up three per cent points year-over-year and down two per cent points quarter-over-quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by Ryzen and EPYC processor sales. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was due to increased semi-custom product sales,” read company’s official statement.
