Broadcom is set to report fiscal first-quarter results after market close on Wednesday.

Here’s what analysts polled by LSEG are expecting:

  • Earnings per share: $2.03 adjusted
  • Revenue: $19.18 billion

At that scale, analysts are projecting nearly 29% revenue growth year over year.

The company has benefited from rising demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure, touting a 65% jump in AI revenue in the 2025 fiscal year. Broadcom contributes to the development of Google’s Tensor Processing Units, or TPUs.

In December, CEO Hock Tan called for fiscal first-quarter AI revenue to double to $8.2 billion.

So far in 2026, Broadcom shares have come down 9%, trailing the S&P 500 index, which is flat over the same period.

“In our view it is likely caught up in investor concerns that 2026 marks a peak” in capital expenditures on AI equipment, wrote analysts at Evercore, who recommend buying Broadcom stock, in a Monday note to clients.

Meanwhile, software stocks have been under pressure for weeks as investors ponder competitive threats from generative AI models. Broadcom bought server virtualization software company VMware in 2023.

Analysts are looking for $12.25 billion in revenue from semiconductor solutions and $7.02 billion from infrastructure software. During the quarter, Broadcom announced new Wi-Fi 8 chips.

For the fiscal second quarter, analysts polled by LSEG are looking for $2.17 in adjusted earnings per share on $20.56 billion in revenue.

Executives will discuss the results on a conference call starting at 5 p.m. ET.
