81 times forward earnings, 30. 72 times revenues, and 53. 76 times cash flow, the question of value is definitely debatable.

But the combination of a 36. 2% profit margin, a 38. 61% ROE, and accelerating AI revenue make the high valuation somewhat reasonable.

31 billion, marking a 29% year-over-year (YOY) increase. GAAP net income of the period amounted to $7. 35 billion, while non-GAAP net income totaled $10.

19 billion. Non-GAAP earnings per share were at $2. 05 and adjusted EBITDA was $13.

13 billion, or 68% of revenue. Most impressive of all numbers reported were the figures pertaining to AI revenue. In Q1 2026, AI revenue jumped by 106% compared to the prior-year period and reached $8.

4 billion, mostly on account of custom AI accelerators and AI network infrastructure products. AI revenue is the reason Broadcom is currently viewed as one of the biggest winners on the AI angle. On top of that, the company issued a Q2 guidance, suggesting a revenue target of around $22 billion, which means 47% YOY growth.

Adjusted EBITDA in the next quarter should stay close to 68% of revenue. Finally, Broadcom announced plans to start another $10 billion repurchase program and return $10. 9 billion to stockholders via dividends and buybacks in Q1.
