Management’s own words, often on a non-GAAP, constant-currency, or adjusted basis — so these can differ from the GAAP figures above (e.g. constant-currency revenue growth excludes currency swings).
Revenue surged 24% year-over-year with record diluted EPS of $1.47 above the high end of guidance, as accelerating AI demand drove broad-based strength across NAND, DRAM, and foundry/logic. WFE outlook was raised to $140 billion with upside bias and NAND conversion spending was pulled forward to 2027. Record CSBG revenue exceeded $2.1 billion while gross margin expansion exceeded the long-term model.

“on the follow-up on HBF. I mean are you seeing book SanDisk and Hynix talking about it, I guess, but outside of that, when you look at high bandwidth flash, are you seeing investments or CapEx picking up there”
Analyst notes SanDisk (a Lam memory-maker customer) is discussing high-bandwidth flash, a potential future NAND capex driver.
