AMD shares have risen 55% in April on the back of multi-billion-dollar AI infrastructure deals, including Meta's 6GW deployment that could more than double current data center revenue. Analysts forecast over 60% annual data center revenue growth as the MI450 GPU and rack-scale solutions debut in H2 2026.
1. AI Infrastructure Deals
AMD has secured multi-year AI infrastructure agreements, highlighted by Meta's 6GW GPU deployment expected to more than double its current data center revenue over the coming years. Additional deals with OpenAI and exploratory talks with Anthropic position AMD as a key supplier in high-performance AI clusters.
2. Data Center Revenue Outlook
Analysts project AMD's data center revenue to grow over 60% annually, driven by AI workloads and strong demand for its MI355X and upcoming MI450 GPUs. The anticipated margin expansion from price increases on inference clusters could further boost profitability.
3. Product Roadmap
The MI450 GPU and rack-scale solutions are slated for launch in the second half of 2026, targeting hyperscale customer deployments. This product ramp follows the introduction of the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition, underscoring AMD's parallel push in consumer CPUs and AI-focused accelerators.
