The business works in principle, but one material question is open. As long as it stays open, our findings do not carry a quality verdict.
The business works and the balance sheet is robust — no substance risk, no going concern doubt, no accounting or governance breach. Two operational questions carry weight: whether the $21,072 million of goodwill in the shrinking Embedded segment holds its carrying value, and whether AMD can ever spread production at 7 nanometers and below across more than one contract manufacturer. That the stock trades at roughly 148 times the earnings of the last four reported quarters as of July 29, 2026 is a price argument and does not enter this rating — that is what our scanners are for. Where the evidence sits between two levels, the more cautious one applies. The decision is yours.
symbol.quality_note
AMD's three segments reported combined operating income of $7,701 million for 2025. The consolidated statement shows $3,694 million. In between sits a bucket of purchase amortization and stock compensation — and the footnotes carry warrants on 320 million shares at one cent apiece. We read both line by line.

„Data Center net revenue of $16.6 billion in 2025 increased by 32%, compared to net revenue of $12.6 billion in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by strong demand for our AMD EPYC™ processors and AMD Instinct™ GPU accelerators."
Der Umsatz des Segments Data Center stieg 2025 um 32 Prozent auf 16,6 Milliarden US-Dollar, gegenüber 12,6 Milliarden US-Dollar im Jahr 2024. Der Anstieg beruhte vor allem auf der starken Nachfrage nach unseren AMD-EPYC-Prozessoren und den GPU-Beschleunigern der Reihe AMD Instinct.

- EPS (Earnings Per Share):
- Quarterly profit divided by the total share count — how much of the profit works out to a single share.
- YoY (Year over Year):
- Change versus the same quarter a year ago — this is how you compare without seasonal distortion (e.g. the holiday shopping season).
- Sales:
- All revenue for the quarter, before any costs are deducted — the top line of the income statement.
- Net Margin:
- What percentage of sales is left over as profit in the end. Negative means the company is posting a loss.
- OCF (Operating Cash Flow):
- The cash that actually flows into the till from the core business during the quarter — harder to dress up than book profit.
- FCF (Free Cash Flow):
- Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures — the money that's genuinely free to use, say for paying down debt, buybacks, or dividends.

Assessment: Opportunities & Risks
Revenue rose 34 percent to $34,639 million in 2025 and 38 percent to $10,253 million in the quarter ended March 28, 2026. The Data Center segment grew 32 percent to $16,635 million in 2025 and 57 percent to $5,775 million in the first quarter of 2026. All three segments are profitable; Embedded grew again for the first time after two years of decline (Form 10-K fiscal 2025, Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28, 2026).
Of $7,701 million of segment operating income in 2025, $3,694 million arrived as consolidated operating income. The $4,007 million difference consists of $2,254 million of amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and $1,638 million of stock-based compensation. The amortization runs off on schedule — $2,153 million in 2026, only $1,454 million in 2030. The stock compensation does not: it rose to $487 million in the quarter ended March 28, 2026 from $364 million a year earlier (Form 10-K fiscal 2025, Notes 4 and 6).
As of March 28, 2026, $12,347 million of cash and short-term investments stand against $3,224 million of total debt, with stockholders' equity of $64,462 million. Operating cash flow for the quarter was $2,955 million and free cash flow per the company $2,566 million. Since May 14, 2026 there is an undrawn $5,000 million revolving facility with no financial covenants (Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28, 2026; Form 8-K filed May 15, 2026).
Goodwill and acquisition-related intangibles of $41,498 million make up 52.1 percent of total assets as of March 28, 2026. Of the goodwill, $21,072 million — 83.9 percent — sits in the Embedded reporting unit, whose revenue fell from $5,321 million in 2023 to $3,454 million in 2025. The fourth-quarter 2025 impairment test was purely qualitative (Form 10-K fiscal 2025, Note 6).
OpenAI and Meta Platforms hold warrants for up to 160 million shares each at $0.01 — together 19.6 percent of the 1,630,600,639 shares outstanding as of April 29, 2026. On top of that, the equity plan may issue a total of 153 million shares as of May 13, 2026. Buybacks barely keep pace: $1.3 billion in 2025 against $1,638 million of stock compensation, and $221 million in the quarter ended March 28, 2026 against $487 million (Form 10-Q, Note 12; Form 8-K filed May 15, 2026).
By its own account AMD relies on a single contract manufacturer for all wafers at 7 nanometers and below, assembles and tests in Mainland China, Malaysia and Taiwan, and generated 22.4 percent of 2025 revenue in China including Hong Kong. The MI308 export restriction cost roughly $440 million net in 2025 — 11.9 percent of operating income (Form 10-K fiscal 2025, Items 1A and 7).
AMD grew strongly in 2025 and in the first quarter of 2026, earns money in all three segments and sits on a balance sheet with $12.3 billion of cash against $3.2 billion of debt. The open questions are operational and every one of them is in the company's own filings: more than half the segment profit disappears into a single bucket, 83.9 percent of goodwill sits in the segment with the weakest revenue trend, and two customers hold warrants on a fifth of the company. Not investment advice.
- Hook: ranking of the 100 largest U.S. stocks by market capitalization (as of July 28, 2026), AMD at number 14 without an existing analysis. Not a scanner hit.
- As of: Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 (period ended December 27, 2025, filed February 4, 2026), Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28, 2026 (filed May 6, 2026), Form 8-K filed May 5, 2026. Valuation multiples and analyst consensus: July 29, 2026.
- Easy to confuse: the "Client and Gaming" segment has only been reported jointly since the first quarter of 2025; older analyses using four segments are not directly comparable. AMD recast the prior years itself.
- Easy to confuse: ZT Systems, acquired in 2025, only partly remained in the group — the manufacturing business went to Sanmina in October 2025 and runs through the figures as a discontinued operation.
