    Micron Q2 Revenue Reaches $41.5B on 432% Two-Year AI Memory Growth

    Question

    Micron Q2 Revenue Reaches $41.5B on 432% Two-Year AI Memory Growth

    Direct answer

    Micron Technology reported that quarterly revenue reached $41.5 billion in Q2 2026, surging 432% over a two-year span. High-bandwidth memory (HBM) and enterprise solid-state drive demand across AI training clusters propelled the expansion. In contrast, Qualcomm faced revenue contraction during 2026 as higher component costs weighed on operating margins and mobile handset volumes moderated. The divergence underscores shifts in semiconductor capital allocation toward AI compute infrastructure away from consumer endpoint devices.
