“2022 was a strong year for AMD as we delivered best-in-class growth and record revenue despite the weak PC environment in the second half of the year," said AMD Chair and CEO Dr. Lisa Su. "We accelerated our data center momentum and closed our strategic acquisition of Xilinx, significantly diversifying our business and strengthening our financial model. Although the demand environment is mixed, we are confident in our ability to gain market share in 2023 and deliver long-term growth based on our differentiated product portfolio.”
Q4 2022 Results
- Revenue of $5.6 billion increased 16% year-over-year primarily driven by growth across the Embedded and Data Center segments, partially offset by lower Client and Gaming segment revenue.
- Gross margin was 43%, a decrease of 7 percentage points year-over-year, primarily due to amortization of intangible assets associated with the Xilinx acquisition. Non-GAAP gross margin was 51%, an increase of 1 percentage point year-over-year, primarily driven by a richer product mix with higher Embedded and Data Center segment revenue, partially offset by lower Client segment revenue.
- Operating loss was $149 million, compared to operating income of $1.2 billion, or 25% of revenue a year ago. The loss was primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets associated with the Xilinx acquisition. Non-GAAP operating income was $1.3 billion, or 23% of revenue, compared to $1.3 billion or 27% a year ago. The non-GAAP operating margin decline was primarily due to lower Client segment operating income.
- Net income was $21 million compared to net income of $974 million a year ago primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets associated with the Xilinx acquisition, partially offset by a $154 million tax benefit in the quarter. Non-GAAP net income was $1.1 billion, flat from a year ago.
- Diluted earnings per share was $0.01 compared to $0.80 a year ago primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets associated with the Xilinx acquisition, partially offset by a $154 million tax benefit in the quarter.

Quarterly Financial Segment Summary
- Prior period results have been conformed to the current reporting segments for comparison purposes.
- Data Center segment revenue was $1.7 billion, up 42% year-over-year primarily driven by strong sales of EPYC™ server processors. Operating income was $444 million, or 27% of revenue, compared to $369 million or 32% a year ago. The operating income increase was primarily driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher R&D investments to support growth. The operating margin decrease was primarily due to higher R&D investments to support growth.
- Client segment revenue was $903 million, down 51% year-over-year due to reduced processor shipments resulting from a weak PC market and a significant inventory correction across the PC supply chain. Client processor ASP was flat year-over-year. Operating loss was $152 million, compared to operating income of $530 million or 29% of revenue a year ago primarily due to lower revenue.
- Gaming segment revenue was $1.6 billion, down 7% year-over-year driven by lower gaming graphics sales partially offset by higher semi-custom product revenue. Operating income was $266 million, or 16% of revenue, compared to $407 million or 23% a year ago. The operating income and margin decreases were primarily due to lower graphics revenue.
- Embedded segment revenue was $1.4 billion, up 1,868% year-over-year primarily driven by the inclusion of Xilinx embedded revenue. Operating income was $699 million, or 50% of revenue, compared to $18 million or 25% a year ago. The operating income and margin increases were primarily driven by higher revenue.
- All Other operating loss was $1.4 billion as compared to $117 million a year ago primarily due to amortization of intangible assets largely associated with the Xilinx acquisition.

(*) In this earnings press release, in addition to GAAP financial results, AMD has provided non-GAAP financial measures including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. AMD uses a normalized tax rate in its computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision to provide better consistency across the reporting periods. For fiscal 2022, AMD uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 13%, which excludes the tax impact of pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments. AMD also provided adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow as supplemental non-GAAP measures of its performance. These items are defined in the footnotes to the selected corporate data tables provided at the end of this earnings press release. In addition, AMD provided pro forma revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 25, 2021 which include unaudited Xilinx pre-acquisition revenue from January 2, 2022 to February 13, 2022 and for the twelve months ended January 1, 2022, respectively, as supplemental information. AMD is providing these financial measures because it believes this non-GAAP presentation makes it easier for investors to compare its operating results for current and historical periods and also because AMD believes it assists investors in comparing AMD’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance and for the other reasons described in the footnotes to the selected data tables. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this earnings press release should be viewed in addition to and not as a substitute for or superior to AMD’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with AMD’s Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures referenced are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the data tables in this earnings press release. This earnings press release also contains forward-looking non-GAAP gross margin concerning AMD’s financial outlook, which is based on current expectations as of January 31, 2023 and assumptions and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. AMD undertakes no intent or obligation to publicly update or revise its outlook statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

The Company presents “Adjusted EBITDA” as a supplemental measure of its performance. Adjusted EBITDA for the Company is determined by adjusting GAAP net income for interest expense, other income (expense), net, income tax provision (benefit), equity income in investee, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense and acquisition-related costs. The Company also included amortization of acquired intangible assets for the three months and year ended December 31, 2022. The Company calculates and presents Adjusted EBITDA because management believes it is of importance to investors and lenders in relation to its overall capital structure and its ability to borrow additional funds. In addition, the Company presents Adjusted EBITDA because it believes this measure assists investors in comparing its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may or may not be consistent with the calculation of this measure by other companies in the same industry. Investors should not view Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to the GAAP operating measure of income or GAAP liquidity measures of cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account changes in certain assets and liabilities that can affect cash flows.

The Company also presents free cash flow as a supplemental Non-GAAP measure of its performance. Free cash flow is determined by adjusting GAAP net cash provided by operating activities for capital expenditures, and free cash flow margin % is free cash flow expressed as a percentage of the Company's net revenue. The Company calculates and communicates free cash flow in the financial earnings press release because management believes it is of importance to investors to understand the nature of these cash flows. The Company’s calculation of free cash flow may or may not be consistent with the calculation of this measure by other companies in the same industry. Investors should not view free cash flow as an alternative to GAAP liquidity measures of cash flows from operating activities.
