Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) filed an 8-K on October 6, 2022, to announce preliminary financial results for its third quarter ended September 24, 2022. The company indicated that its third quarter revenue is expected to be approximately $5.8 billion, which represents a 29% increase year-over-year. However, this preliminary revenue figure is below the company's previously provided guidance of $6.7 billion to $7.1 billion.

Additionally, the Data Center segment's growth was impacted by supply chain constraints affecting server shipments. While the preliminary results suggest a weaker than anticipated third quarter, particularly in the Client segment, AMD is still projecting year-over-year revenue growth.
