    Broadcom AI semiconductor revenues +143% to $10.8B; Q3 AI revenue expected $16B

    Question

    Broadcom AI semiconductor revenues +143% to $10.8B; Q3 AI revenue expected $16B

    Direct answer

    Zacks reports Broadcom's AI semiconductor revenues rose 143% to $10.8B in Q2 and that management expects $16B in Q3 driven by custom XPU demand from hyperscalers and six core AI customers. The data implies a strong hyperscaler-driven cadence for Broadcom's custom AI silicon, which may support AVGO revenue multiple expansion if sustained. Zacks also notes intensifying competition from NVIDIA and AMD as they expand into AI infrastructure, implying ongoing market-share contests across AI silicon categories.
