Broadcom posts earnings beat and raises outlook as AI chip demand surges

Broadcom smashed Wall Street’s estimates Thursday with stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter numbers, citing rising demand for AI chips as the main reason.

The company said revenue for Q4 hit $18.02 billion, beating the $17.49 billion analysts had forecast, while adjusted earnings per share landed at $1.95, also ahead of the $1.86 prediction from LSEG.

Net income nearly doubled from a year ago. The company pulled in $8.51 billion, or $1.74 per share, up from $4.32 billion, or 90 cents per share. The stock moved 3% higher after hours following the report.

Broadcom raises forecast as AI sales double to $8.2 billion

Looking ahead, Broadcom said it expects $19.1 billion in revenue for the current quarter. That would be a 28% year-over-year increase, well above the $18.3 billion consensus estimate.

CEO Hock Tan said in a statement that AI chip sales are projected to hit $8.2 billion this quarter, doubling from the same time last year. He added that demand is coming from both custom chips and networking semiconductors built for AI systems.

Back in June, Broadcom said it had three customers and four prospects for its custom AI chips. Then, in September, it revealed a fourth client who placed a $10 billion order. That customer still hasn’t been named. Market watchers are waiting to see if Broadcom confirms those clients are staying on track.

The company’s semiconductor solutions division posted $11.07 billion in revenue, a 22% increase compared to the same quarter last year. That number beat the $10.77 billion estimate from StreetAccount. This segment is where AI chip sales are booked.

Meanwhile, the infrastructure software business brought in $6.94 billion, up 26% year-over-year, topping Wall Street’s expectations as well. This segment includes revenue from the VMWare unit, which Broadcom officially absorbed earlier this year.

On the hardware side, Broadcom has been working with Google for nearly a decade on custom-designed AI chips. The current model, known as TPUv7 or Ironwood, has launched faster than anticipated.

According to Susquehanna, Google recently brought in Anthropic as a key customer, ordering up to 1 million TPUs. Meta is also buying.

In terms of shareholder returns, Broadcom said it will pay a dividend of 65 cents per share later this month, up from 59 cents previously. The company didn’t give more details on buybacks or other capital plans in this release.

Broadcom stock is up 75% year-to-date, following a full-year double in 2024. Like Nvidia, Broadcom has been one of the few U.S. chipmakers consistently delivering results as AI infrastructure spending ramps up globally.

But unlike Nvidia’s focus on GPUs, Broadcom is carving out its own space by building custom silicon for the hyperscalers.

Hock said the AI boom is only getting started, and that Broadcom’s chip orders are “just beginning to scale.” Whether those unnamed clients fully follow through or not, the company is already booking billions.

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?

The post Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In recent crypto news, Stephen Miran swore in as the latest Federal Reserve governor on September 16, 2025, slipping into the board’s last open spot right before the Federal Open Market Committee kicks off its two-day rate discussion. Traders are betting heavily on a 25-basis-point trim, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.00%-4.25%, based on CME FedWatch Tool figures from September 15, 2025. Miran, who’s been Trump’s top economic advisor and a supporter of his trade ideas, joins a seven-member board where just three governors come from Democratic picks, according to the Fed’s records updated that same day. Crypto News: Miran’s Background and Quick Path to Confirmation The Senate greenlit Miran on September 15, 2025, with a tight 48-47 vote, following his nomination on September 2, 2025, as per a recent crypto news update. His stint runs only until January 31, 2026, stepping in for Adriana D. Kugler, who stepped down in August 2025 for reasons not made public. Miran earned his economics Ph.D. from Harvard and worked at the Treasury back in Trump’s first go-around. Afterward, he moved to Hudson Bay Capital Management as an economist, then looped back to the White House in December 2024 to head the Council of Economic Advisers. There, he helped craft Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” approach, aimed at fixing trade gaps with China and the EU. He wouldn’t quit his White House gig, which irked Senator Elizabeth Warren at the September 7, 2025, confirmation hearings. That limited time frame means Miran gets to cast a vote straight away at the FOMC session starting September 16, 2025. The full board now features Chair Jerome H. Powell (Trump pick, term ends 2026), Vice Chair Philip N. Jefferson (Biden, to 2036), and folks like Lisa D. Cook (Biden, to 2028) and Michael S. Barr…
