Palantir and Advanced Micro Devices are expected to deliver strong growth in the 2026 Q1 earnings season, with both companies set to report in early May. Palantir's previous quarter saw total sales reach $1.4 billion, up 70% year-over-year, with US sales particularly strong at $1.1 billion, growing 93%. Analysts expect earnings to soar 123% with revenues up 73% in the upcoming release. The company has benefited from growing importance in the defence industry. AMD posted strong results in its latest quarter, with Data Center sales reaching a record $5.4 billion, up nearly 40%. The chipmaker expects 33% earnings growth on 32% higher sales. Both companies have seen bullish-to-stable analyst revisions in recent months. Palantir reports on 4 May, whilst AMD follows on 5 May.
Dayhoff Health and AMD have published a white paper demonstrating up to 330× faster microbiome processing using AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 GPUs. The collaboration also achieved 13–22× acceleration in whole genome sequencing and 18–28× faster single-cell sequencing. The Dallas-based clinical genomics platform tested production workloads using AMD's ROCm software platform and HIP-optimised workflows. The acceleration significantly reduces turnaround times for microbiome analysis and increases throughput capacity for healthcare systems, research institutions and enterprise wellness programmes. Dayhoff Health's infrastructure integrates GPU acceleration into its CLIA-certified and HIPAA-compliant bioinformatics platform. Founded in 2021, the company provides microbiome testing and genomic analysis solutions for preventive health and population wellness initiatives. The full white paper is available on AMD.com and Dayhoffhealth.com.
AMD has set a price target of $284.67, implying 16.17% upside from its current $245.04, with analysts recommending "buy" at 90% confidence level. The chipmaker reported Q4 2025 revenue of $10.27 billion, beating consensus by $550 million, with data centre revenue reaching a record $5.38 billion, up 39% year-over-year. Free cash flow surged 90.83% to $2.08 billion. AMD has secured major partnerships including a 6-gigawatt GPU deployment with OpenAI starting in H2 2026 and Oracle's AI supercluster using 50,000 AMD GPUs in Q3 2026. The stock has gained 14.42% year-to-date, though US export controls on MI308 GPUs to China created $440 million in charges. A bull case scenario projects the stock reaching $296.92.
AMD and Nvidia, the primary AI computing providers, are competing for GPU supremacy with vastly different results. Since 2023, Nvidia's stock has surged 1,120% whilst AMD has risen 242%. However, AMD has outperformed over the past year, gaining 165% against Nvidia's 82%. The companies differ fundamentally. Nvidia focuses entirely on its GPU ecosystem, whilst AMD maintains a wider product portfolio including CPUs, consumer products and embedded processors through its Xilinx acquisition. Nvidia's dominance is clear in recent results. Its most recent quarter saw $68.2 billion in revenue, up 73% year over year, with its data center division generating $62.3 billion. AMD posted $10.3 billion in revenue, up 34%, with data center revenue of $5.4 billion—over 10 times smaller than Nvidia's. AMD management targets a 35% revenue CAGR over the next five years.
Advanced Micro Devices rose 2.5% in March whilst the S&P 500 fell 5%, as investors remained confident in the chipmaker's AI prospects. The company is preparing to ship its MI450 GPU in the second half of 2026, which will deliver 36 times more performance than previous generations and 50% more memory capacity than Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin system. AMD's data center business generated $16.6 billion in revenue during 2025, up 32% year-on-year. CEO Lisa Su expects this segment to grow 60% annually over the next three to five years. Major customers including Meta Platforms and OpenAI have committed to deploying 6 gigawatts of computing capacity using AMD GPUs. However, concerns exist about OpenAI's ability to fulfil its financial commitments given its $25 billion annualised revenue versus hundreds of billions in infrastructure obligations.
