- Management expects DRAM/NAND cost inflation to persist into 2027 and has implemented aggressive pricing actions and supply securing measures.
- Raised fiscal 2026 EPS guidance to $2.30-$2.50 and FCF to at least $2B, offsetting a lowered cloud & AI revenue growth outlook.
- AI systems backlog reached a record $5B, and the sales pipeline is multiples of the backlog, but the company is prioritizing margins over revenue growth for AI.
