Arm forecasts higher-than-expected revenue on surging AI data center demand
YahooMay 6, 2026
Arm Holdings forecast first-quarter revenue above Wall Street expectations on Wednesday, benefiting from higher adoption of its chip technology as tech companies spend heavily on artificial intelligence compute. Arm shares jumped 12% in after-hours trading, but reversed course to drop 5.49% after executives told analysts on a conference call that they have not yet secured supplies to meet the demand for a new chip and after analysts probed about the costs of getting into the business of making its own chips. The company expects quarterly revenue of $1.26 billion, compared with analysts' estimates of $1.25 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
