    Broadcom custom AI silicon revenue targeted at $58B in 2026 and $230B by 2028

    Question

    Broadcom custom AI silicon revenue targeted at $58B in 2026 and $230B by 2028

    Direct answer

    Hyperscale cloud providers are aggressively shifting AI workloads toward customized silicon architectures to optimize power and cost efficiency. Broadcom's custom ASIC division is emerging as the primary beneficiary, targeting $58 billion in FY2026 AI sales and $230 billion by FY2028. By delivering 40% to 60% reductions in inference operating expenses relative to general-purpose GPUs, Broadcom is locking in multi-year custom silicon co-development programs with hyperscalers like Alphabet and Meta.
