Arm forecasts higher-than-expected revenue on surging AI data center demand

Revenue rose 20% to $1.49 billion as Arm said AI data-center adoption is lifting royalty and licensing demand, and shares jumped 12% after hours.

  • On Wednesday, Arm Holdings reported fiscal 2026 fourth-quarter revenue of $1.49 billion, beating analyst estimates of $1.47 billion with adjusted earnings per share of $0.60.
  • Growth stems from tech companies' heavy investment in artificial intelligence compute, with Arm CEO Rene Haas confirming that demand for the company's new AGI CPU has exceeded initial expectations.
  • Licensing and other revenue surged 29% year-over-year to $819 million, while annualized contract value increased 22% to $1.66 billion, driven by accelerated adoption of Arm-based server chips by major hyperscalers.
  • Arm projects first-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $1.26 billion, exceeding Wall Street's $1.25 billion estimate, though management is securing supply chain capacity to meet AGI CPU demand.
  • By fiscal 2031, the company targets $25 billion in revenue and $9 adjusted earnings per share, with the AGI CPU expected to generate $15 billion in sales within five years.
