AMD's revenue for the second quarter of 2020 was $1.93 billion, surpassing the market forecast of $1.85 billion. Gross profit margin was 44%, operating income was $173 million (about 18.2 billion yen), and net income was $157 million (about 16.5 billion yen). Revenue increased 8% year-on-year and 26% year-on-year. On the other hand, operating income and net income have increased year-on-year, but have decreased slightly year-on-year.
In its core business of Computing & Graphics, revenue for the second quarter of 2020 was $1.37 billion (about 144 billion yen), an increase of 45% year-on-year. Operating income was $22 million (about 231 million yen) in the same period of the previous year, but increased significantly to $200 million (about 21 billion yen).
