What were the exact earnings miss and revenue beat numbers, and how do they compare to consensus estimates?

Answer

The brief news excerpt you provided does not contain the specific figures for AMD’s earnings miss (i.e., the difference between actual earnings per share and the consensus estimate) nor the exact size of the revenue beat (i.e., the amount by which actual revenue exceeded the consensus estimate). It only tells us that:

• Earnings were “weaker‑than‑expected” (a miss versus analysts’ forecasts).
  
• Revenue “topped estimates” (a beat versus analysts’ forecasts).
  

Because the precise numbers are not included in the summary, we cannot give the exact miss and beat values or quantify how they compare to the consensus estimates from the information you’ve shared.

How to Find the Exact Numbers

To obtain the precise figures, you would need to consult the full CNBC Tech article (or AMD’s earnings release) that was published on 2025‑08‑06 at 01:29:18 UTC. Typically, the key data points are presented in a table or a paragraph that looks like this:

You can locate the exact numbers by:

1. Opening the CNBC article – the headline “AMD reports weaker‑than‑expected earnings even as revenue tops estimates” will usually be followed by a “Key Takeaways” or “Financial Highlights” section that lists the actual EPS and revenue versus analyst expectations.
2. Checking AMD’s investor relations page – the company’s earnings press release (often titled “AMD Announces Financial Results for Q2 2025”) will include a “Financial Results” table with the same data.
3. Looking at earnings‑analysis platforms (e.g., Bloomberg, FactSet, Thomson Reuters, Yahoo! Finance) – they publish the consensus estimates and the actual results side‑by‑side, showing the miss/beat in both absolute and percentage terms.

Example (Illustrative Only)

If the article had, for instance, reported:

• GAAP EPS: $0.71 vs. consensus $0.78 → Miss: $‑0.07 (‑9%)
  
• Revenue: $5.60 bn vs. consensus $5.45 bn → Beat: $+0.15 bn (+2.8%)

Those numbers would be the “exact earnings miss” and “revenue beat” you’re asking for, and the comparison would be a 9% earnings shortfall versus expectations and a roughly 3% revenue upside versus expectations.

However, without the full text, we cannot confirm whether AMD’s miss and beat were of that magnitude.

Bottom Line

• From the provided excerpt: No specific miss or beat numbers are disclosed.
  
• To answer the question accurately: Access the complete CNBC Tech article (or AMD’s earnings release) dated 2025‑08‑06; the exact figures will be listed there.
  

If you can share the full article or the specific numbers from the earnings release, I’ll gladly calculate the precise miss/beat and show the comparison to consensus estimates.
