    Broadcom Reports Q2 2026 Revenue of $29.6B on 86% Surge in Custom AI Silicon

    Question

    Broadcom Reports Q2 2026 Revenue of $29.6B on 86% Surge in Custom AI Silicon

    Direct answer

    Broadcom generated $29.6 billion in revenue during Q2 2026, marking an 86% increase over the prior year period. The acceleration reflects strong customer orders for custom AI compute silicon and Ethernet switching fabric deployments across tier-one hyperscalers. During the same quarter, Intel grew revenue by 25% year-over-year under CEO Lip-Bu Tan, demonstrating early operational stabilization while the total semiconductor revenue gap between the two suppliers widened further in Broadcom's favor.
