> **Quick answer:** AMD reported Q1 2026 revenue of $10.253 billion, up 38% year-over-year, beating the $9.84 billion analyst consensus by 4.2%. Non-GAAP EPS came in at $1.37, topping the $1.28 estimate by 7%. Data Center revenue hit $5.8 billion — up 57% annually — and Q2 guidance of $11.2 billion beat expectations by $680 million.
