Expanding Portfolio to Aid AMD’s Client Revenues in Q4
AMD’s expanding portfolio has been a key catalyst in driving the Client segment revenues.
The company has expanded its desktop portfolio with the introduction of the new Ryzen 7 9800X3D, with its “Zen 5” architecture and 2nd Gen AMD 3D V-Cache technology.
AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 Series, with 50 tops of AI compute performance for Copilot Plus PCs, is the industry’s fastest NPU.
The consensus mark for fourth-quarter 2024 Client revenues is pegged at $1.97 billion, suggesting 35.04% year-over-year growth.
AMD’s Gaming & Embedded Segments to Decline Y/Y
AMD’s Gaming segment is expected to have declined in the fourth quarter of 2024. Semi-custom sales are expected to fall as major partners continue to reduce channel inventory. AMD is also transitioning to its next-gen Radeon GPUs based on its RDNA architecture. This is also expected to have reduced revenues on a year-over-year basis.
The consensus mark for fourth-quarter Gaming revenues is pegged at $509 million, suggesting a massive 62.79% year-over-year decline.
AMD’s Embedded segment is expected to have suffered from ongoing softness in the industrial market. The consensus mark for fourth-quarter Embedded revenues is pegged at $922 million, indicating a 12.77% decline on a year-over-year basis.
