Posted July 26, 2017 Quote AMD posted stronger-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results and gave a bright forecast for the third quarter. AMD reported adjusted earnings of two cents per share, while Wall Street had expected earnings to be flat. Revenue jumped 19% year-over-year to $1.22 billion, higher than the $1.16 billion projected by analysts. The company said in a statement that the sales increase was driven primarily by higher revenue in its computing and graphics segment. AMD said it now expects third-quarter revenue to increase about 15 percent year over year. That figure implies third-quarter revenue of about $1.50 billion, easily besting analyst projections for about $1.39 billion, according to Thomson Reuters Looks like next quarter might be even better once epyc and vega sales show up on the balance sheet. Not to mention ryzen will continue to gain traction in the market with threadripper sales. http://www.cnbc.com/2017/07/25/amd-stock-soars-after-strong-guidance-earnings-beat.html AMD FX-8350 @ 4.7Ghz when gaming | MSI 990FXA-GD80 v2 | Swiftech H220 | Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 + XFX Radeon 7950 | 8 Gigs of Crucial Ballistix Tracers | 140 GB Raptor X | 1 TB WD Blue | 250 GB Samsung Pro SSD | 120 GB Samsung SSD | 750 Watt Antec HCG PSU | Corsair C70 Mil Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a supply issue and everything is sold then all that means is everything is sold. It does not indicate what the customers primarily bought them for. Nor does it indicate if they had more to sell how much more would have sold. I think it's a fairly safe bet that mining played a large role in this and sales figures could have gone significantly higher again had it not been for a the supply issue. But I wouldn't discount ryzens starting to sell well. There is no logical reason to assume they wouldn't. Grammar and spelling is not indicative of intelligence/knowledge.

Haha, that I did. I'm sure that the processors are selling wonderfully for now, but what I meant was that the increase over what was expected was from miners buying more card than expected. I'd say servers and professional work is what they need to target, but Intel has a pretty firm grasp on that, and if Epyc is pretty power hungry I don't think that'll change any time soon. 1 hour ago, Brooksie359 said: Tbh I'm not sure about that.

Posted July 26, 2017 Their operating income was positive, but their net income (as in, what you're left with after paying for all expenses) was still negative 16 million. That's bad because at the end of the day, AMD has less money now than they did at the beginning of the quarter. But considering the fact that they had a net income of negative 73 million dollars in Q1 this can be seen as positive. So if things keep getting better for AMD (like for example getting Ryzen into prebuilt computers) then they might be able to break even soon. I wouldn't bet money on it though. It's kind of scary that even with AMD selling all their GPUs to miners (even AMD said that these results were because of miners, if the OP is to be believed), and with Ryzen being a success, they still can't break even. Since mining cards will start hitting the second hand market soon (because of Eth crashing), chances are the next quarter will be worse for AMD.

Posted July 26, 2017 And once crypto mining won't be profitable anymore, people will try to return those GPUs and demnand money back for some weird reason. It's not nice, but they are doing it anyway. So that would mean loss for AMD once that happens. Ryzen did bring some light to AMD. But isn't Vega a failure?

No need to dick around with minor details if they only confuse the take home message. The thing is though, AMD still lost money and I don't think that's what people are interpreting when they read this post. The operating income was positive, but their net income was negative. Operating income = Gross income minus a few things like salaries, but it does not factor in all types of expenses such as taxes, interest expenses and some other things such as lawsuit settlements. Net income = The income they are left with at the end of the day, when all the expenses has been subtracted from their revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
