Executive summary

  • Fiscal 2026 began with strong AI-driven demand and a $13B+ order book, but Q1 net sales fell to $5.02B, down 15–15.5% year-over-year, due to shipment delays, customer upgrades, and changes in product mix.

  • Net income dropped to $168.3M from $424.3M in the prior year, reflecting lower gross profit and higher operating expenses.

  • The company is rapidly expanding its global manufacturing footprint with new facilities in the U.S., APAC, Malaysia, the Netherlands, and the Middle East.

  • Delivered high-volume shipments of next-generation AI products, including NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 and AMD MI355, and showcased AI storage solutions at the 2025 Open Storage Summit.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
