Third Quarter Results

Applied generated record revenue of $9.12 billion. On a GAAP basis, the company reported gross margin of 50.3 percent, record operating income of $3.08 billion or 33.7 percent of revenue, and earnings per share (EPS) of $3.17.

On a non-GAAP basis, the company reported gross margin of 50.4 percent, record operating income of $3.10 billion or 34.0 percent of revenue, and record EPS of $3.50.

The company generated record cash from operations of $3.04 billion and distributed $860 million to shareholders through $440 million in share repurchases and $420 million in dividends.

"Applied Materials delivered another record-breaking quarter, including the highest sequential revenue growth in the company’s history," said Gary Dickerson, President and CEO. "As the rapid global adoption of AI drives unprecedented demand for our materials engineering solutions, we are further raising our Semiconductor Systems revenue expectations for calendar 2026 and are confident we will grow faster than the market this year. Based on the increased demand visibility we are receiving from our customers, we expect another strong growth year for Applied Materials in 2027."

"Applied Materials achieved its 13th consecutive quarter of year-over-year gross margin expansion, demonstrating the increasing value we create by enabling better chips, systems and fab returns," said Brice Hill, Senior Vice President and CFO. "We expect continued strong revenue growth in the second half of the calendar year, particularly in DRAM as well as leading-edge foundry-logic and advanced packaging. Looking further ahead, we are making additional manufacturing capacity investments to support projected demand through the end of the decade."

Recent Highlights

New Products and Technologies

Introduced six new chipmaking systems for DRAM and advanced packaging.
- Enhanced Centura™ Prime™ Epi: selectively grows doped silicon germanium and silicon phosphorous in transistor source/drain regions, combining advanced strain engineering with precise doping control. The result is higher drive current and transistor efficiency, enabling faster, more power-efficient DRAM and high bandwidth memory (HBM).
- Opta™ Quad CMP: engineered specifically for advanced packaging, the Opta Quad continuously monitors wafer conditions during polish and dynamically adjusts in real time, improving within-wafer uniformity and total thickness variation control, which is particularly critical for hybrid bonding.
- Nokota™ VMax™ 2 ECD: high-precision copper plating across a broad range of applications for next-generation packaging, from TSV fill for 3D stacking to fine-pitch interconnects such as microbump formation. Nokota VMax 2 introduces Adaptive Pattern Tuning (APT), which dynamically shapes the electric field to correct for layout-driven variation and improve plating uniformity across the wafer.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Applied provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are adjusted for the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, including, as applicable, certain items related to mergers and acquisitions; restructuring and severance charges and any associated adjustments; legal settlement charges; impairments of assets; gain or loss, dividends and impairments on strategic investments; certain income tax items; and other discrete adjustments. On a non-GAAP basis, the tax effect related to share-based compensation is recognized ratably over the fiscal year. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided in the financial tables included in this release.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the company’s operating and financial performance and for planning purposes, and as performance measures in its executive compensation program. Applied believes these measures enhance an overall understanding of its performance and investors’ ability to review the company’s business from the same perspective as the company’s management, and facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of Applied's ongoing operating performance. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and may exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
