AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) today announced revenue for the first quarter of 2023 of $5.4 billion, gross margin of 44%, operating loss of $145 million, net loss of $139 million and diluted loss per share of $0.09. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin was 50%, operating income was $1.1 billion, net income was $970 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.60.

"We executed very well in the first quarter as we delivered better than expected revenue and earnings in a mixed demand environment," said AMD Chair and CEO Dr. Lisa Su. "We launched multiple leadership products and made significant progress accelerating our AI roadmap and customer engagements in the quarter. Longer-term, we see significant growth opportunities as we successfully deliver our roadmaps, execute our strategic data center and embedded priorities and accelerate adoption of our AI portfolio."



"Our strategically important Data Center and Embedded segments contributed more than 50 percent of revenue in the first quarter," said AMD EVP, CFO and Treasurer Jean Hu. "For the second quarter we expect sequential growth in our Data Center and Client segments offset by modest declines in our Gaming and Embedded segments. We remain confident in our growth in the second half of the year as the PC and server markets strengthen and our new products ramp."

I have a feeling that if better equipped motherboards than the infamously stripped down A620 chipset models were to drop in price and a bit more in the price of the um..."high end" 7000 series AMD graphics cards, AMD's platform sales, will rise significantly despite the recession.

Supposedly the RX 7900 XT is slowly coming down in price, at least in the US.

that's incredible misleading, they are selling ryzen to the client segment with a higher margin then ryzen+radeon to the gaming segment? there is no radeon to the client segment? Who the hell did this crap and who did they want to mislead?

also R&D is only twice the size of the sales, marketing,... maybe there is a problem there.

I think that any Radeon product sold (and the console APU, which must be sold at a lower margin to their partners) is classified as gaming, and Ryzen (mainstream and pro) as clients. Ultimately knowing what your customer is going to do with your product is hard, so they probably just use their internal classification and call it a day.

i think clients means dell, alienware, system integrators, 99% are not for gaming even if they may say they are for gaming. That's how i interpreted it. I don't see how they can have higher margins?!

This is how Intel defines their different BUs.
CCG creates platforms designed for end-user form factors, focusing on higher growth segments of 2-in-1, thin-and-light, commercial and gaming, and growing opportunities in areas such as connectivity.

Also keep i mind that gaming, when it comes to computers, also involves gambling. A lot of companies say they sell gaming products, but in reality they sell products to the gambling industry.
