AMD’s stock, currently trading at $173.66, has shown remarkable momentum with a 12.24% gain in the past week alone, according to InvestingPro data.

BofA expects AMD to report second-quarter sales exceeding $7.5 billion and third-quarter sales above $8.5 billion, compared to consensus estimates of $7.4 billion and $8.3 billion respectively. For calendar year 2025, the firm projects sales over $33 billion and earnings per share above $4.10, versus consensus of $32.2 billion and $4.01. The company has demonstrated strong revenue growth, with a 21.71% increase in the last twelve months.

The price target increase reflects a higher price-to-earnings multiple of 36x calendar year 2026 estimated earnings, up from the previous 31x multiple, justified by a stronger AI CPU and GPU environment.
Long-term, BofA expects AMD to increase its overall CPU market share to more than 30% by calendar year 2026, up from less than 20% in 2023, while potentially capturing 4-5% of the AI GPU market.
