Broadcom (AVGO) reported impressive fiscal fourth-quarter results, surpassing analysts' expectations and boosting its stock in after-hours trading.

Net income increased to $4.32 billion, or 90 cents per share, surpassing previous figures and forecasts. After a 10-for-1 stock split in July and a $1.88 billion loss in the prior quarter, partly due to VMware acquisition costs in November 2023, Broadcom achieved record fiscal 2024 revenues. CEO Hock Tan noted a 44% annual revenue increase to $51.6 billion, with VMware's infrastructure software contributing $21.5 billion. AI revenue reached $12.2 billion, slightly above the $12 billion target. Broadcom expects first-quarter fiscal revenue of $14.6 billion, exceeding analysts' estimates. Consequently, Broadcom shares rose over 14%, following a 62% increase in 2024 up to the most recent market close.

Broadcom (AVGO) reported better-than-expected fiscal fourth-quarter earnings, boosting its shares in after-hours trading on Thursday. The company's fourth-quarter revenue increased by 51% year-over-year, reaching $14. 05 billion, aligning closely with analyst estimates compiled by Visible Alpha. Net income rose to $4. 32 billion, or 90 cents per share, up from $3. 52 billion or 83 cents per share a year ago, exceeding predictions. The firm executed a 10-for-1 stock split in July.

" Tan also highlighted that Broadcom's full-year revenue from artificial intelligence (AI) more than tripled to $12. 2 billion, slightly surpassing its previous forecast of $12 billion.
