❯ Foxconn quarterly net profit rises 34% as AI servers become its main growth engine

Formal results set a quarterly recordFoxconn reported third-quarter revenue of NT$3.02 trillion on November 12, up 46% year over year. Profit attributable to the parent rose 34% to a quarterly record of NT$77.5 billion, with EPS of NT$5.51. Operating profit increased 64%, outpacing revenue and indicating operating-efficiency gains alongside expansion.

Cloud and networking reshape the businessThe company says AI server demand lifted cloud and networking products beyond its most optimistic initial expectations, making the segment the main driver of record revenue. Known for consumer-electronics manufacturing, Foxconn increasingly coordinates computing, networking and server-rack delivery. Chairman Young Liu expects shipments of a new generation of AI racks to support further sequential growth in fourth-quarter server revenue.

Demand and component availability both matterFoxconn raised its full-year outlook for all four major product groups and expressed optimism about 2027, supported by AI and smart consumer electronics. It also warned of tight supplies of chips, memory and other critical components. New capacity should gradually ease bottlenecks, but demand could still exceed supply next year. For a manufacturer delivering complete systems and racks, component availability affects order fulfillment and working-capital turnover.
