Did AVGO Beat Earnings? Q4 2025 Results

Broadcom closed out fiscal 2025 with a record fourth quarter, posting revenue of $18.02 billion, up 28.2% year-over-year and ahead of the $17.55 billion consensus, while non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.95 cleared the $1.87 estimate by 4.28%, underscoring the company's deepening grip on AI infrastructure spending. The single most powerful engine behind the quarter was AI semiconductor demand, with that segment growing 74% year-over-year through custom AI accelerators and Ethernet AI switches, helping the semiconductor solutions division alone generate $11.07 billion in revenue. Infrastructure software contributed an additional $6.94 billion, and adjusted EBITDA reached $12.22 billion, or 68% of revenue. Free cash flow of $7.47 billion for the quarter also reflected the company's strong operating leverage. <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2025/12/11/live-broadcom-avgo-q4-earnings-coverage/">Looking ahead</a>, Broadcom guided Q1 FY2026 revenue of approximately $19.10 billion, with CEO Hock Tan projecting AI semiconductor revenue to double year-over-year to $8.20 billion, as the board also approved a 10% dividend increase to $0.65 per share quarterly.
