芯片行业不景气是市场共识,但仍有佼佼者胜出。本周二,AMD表示,预计第三季度销售额将达到53亿美元,同比下降10%。同比下降不是一件很好的事情,但相比同行温和太多。

AMD最大的竞争对手是英特尔。英特尔预计该公司的各类产品销售额会全面下滑,上周,该公司预计销售额约为110亿美元,同比下降40%。AMD称,其数据中心业务随着新芯片的推出而增长,该公司在新冠疫情大流行时期收购专业芯片制造商Xilinx也有助于增长。

另一家芯片巨头三星近期财报显示,其芯片部门在2022年4季度的利润骤降超96.9%

不过有意思的是,不管是英特尔、AMD还是三星,都表示宏观经济高度不确定,因此没有给出全年的营收指引。AMDCEOLisaSu对分析师表示,鉴于宏观环境,我们希望在进入今年之前保持谨慎。

市场反应也很直接,英特尔上周发布报告后,在盘后交易中下跌超过7%。AMD在周二发布盈利报告后,盘后上涨了2%。

第四季度,AMD的个人电脑芯片组收入同比下降51%;英特尔个人电脑芯片收入下跌36%,但基数更大。AMD首席执行官LisaSu周二表示,预计2023年PC市场总量将下降10%,但AMD实际上在第四季度获得了市场份额

LisaSu说:“可以公平地说,考虑到我们目前的客户库存水平,上半年收入肯定会有所下降。我们预计下半年会有所改善。”。

在数据中心芯片方面,AMD的表现也更加优秀。

英特尔数据中心的销售额比上一年下降了33%,降至43亿美元,部分原因是其最新服务器芯片系列SapphireRapids发布较晚。

然而,AMD的数据中心业务增长强劲,年增长达到42%,达到17亿美元。AMD于11月发布了最新的数据中心芯片,即第四代Epyc处理器。AMD预计其数据中心业务今年将增长,游戏游戏应用方面的PC芯片和图形处理器业务营收将下降。

LisaSu表示:“在嵌入式和数据中心领域,我们相信,凭借竞争优势和领导地位,AMD将在2023年实现收入增长并获得份额。”

AMD在2020年以350亿美元收购Xilinx,目前看也是一项非常成功的并购。根据该公司的数据,Xilinx是AMD嵌入式部门销售额14亿美元的主要贡献者,每年增长1868%。Xilinx主要生产执行加密或视频压缩等特殊任务的处理器。
