Michael Dell Technologies Reports Record AI Server Orders and Significant Revenue Growth

Michael Dell Technologies reported a significant increase in revenue and AI server demand, with revenue reaching $47 billion and adjusted earnings of $7.04 per share. The company booked a record $60.9 billion in AI server orders in a single quarter, resulting in a $95 billion backlog. The administration announced that the company's infrastructure operating margin expanded to 15%, a notable increase from previous periods. The growth is driven by a shift toward on-premise AI spending, where companies move AI workloads to machines they own and control. Michael Dell noted that the risk of losing control over data, costs, and security is a primary driver for this shift. The company's server business is experiencing a surge, with traditional servers also hitting an all-time quarterly high of $10.53 billion. The administration announced that the company expects to see traditional server sales eclipse AI server sales in the fourth quarter. Additionally, the company's storage business, built on the EMC foundation, grew by 25.8 percent. The company's total backlog is now 8.1 times larger than it was a year ago.
