Summary of Microprocessor Market Share Conference Call Industry Overview - The conference call discusses the microprocessor market, specifically focusing on the performance of major players: AMD, Intel, and ARM in the 3Q25 period [1][8]. Key Points Market Performance - Total microprocessor unit shipments increased by 3.9% quarter-over-quarter (QoQ), surpassing the seasonal expectation of 2.4% QoQ, driven by strong server and notebook CPU shipments [1][5]. - Notebook MPU shipments rose by 3.0% QoQ, exceeding the seasonal decline of 1.5% QoQ, while desktop MPU shipments increased by 7.1% QoQ, which was below the seasonal increase of 18.1% QoQ [16]. - Server MPU shipments were up 1.8% QoQ, also above the seasonal expectation of a 5.8% decline, attributed to improved demand from cloud service providers (CSPs) [16]. Company-Specific Insights Intel (INTC) - Intel's overall MPU unit share decreased by 157 basis points QoQ from 65.8% in 2Q25 to 64.2% in 3Q25 [2][9]. - Specific declines in market share: - Notebook MPU share fell by 162 basis points QoQ from 66.9% to 65.3% - Desktop MPU share decreased by 131 basis points QoQ from 63.5% to 62.2% - Server MPU share dropped by 174 basis points QoQ from 63.3% to 61.5% [2][9]. AMD - AMD's overall MPU unit share increased by 108 basis points QoQ from 21.0% in 2Q25 to 22.1% in 3Q25 [3][11]. - Notable gains: - Notebook MPU share rose by 102 basis points QoQ from 17.3% to 18.3% - Desktop MPU share increased by 135 basis points QoQ from 30.2% to 31.5%, marking the highest share in the model's history since 2002 [3][11]. - AMD's server MPU share saw a slight decline of 8 basis points QoQ from 23.7% to 23.6% [3][11]. ARM - ARM's MPU unit share grew by 49 basis points QoQ from 13.2% in 2Q25 to 13.7% in 3Q25 [4][14]. - Gains included: - Notebook MPU share increased by 60 basis points QoQ from 15.7% to 16.3% - Server MPU share surged by 182 basis points QoQ from 13.0% to 14.8%, driven by Nvidia's GB200 strength and increased internal server adoption by CSPs [4][14]. - However, ARM's desktop MPU share slightly decreased by 4 basis points QoQ from 6.33% to 6.29% [4][14]. Analyst Ratings - The firm maintains a Neutral rating on AMD and a Sell rating on Intel [5][17]. Risks and Considerations - Competition: AMD faces direct competition from Intel in the microprocessor market and from NVIDIA in the graphics and AI GPU market, which could impact market share and estimates [20]. - PC End Market: AMD derives approximately 30% of its sales from the PC industry, making it sensitive to fluctuations in IT spending [21]. - Customer Risk: A significant portion of AMD's revenue comes from major clients like Sony and Microsoft, making it vulnerable to changes in their order volumes [21]. - Macroeconomic Factors: Intel's revenue is heavily reliant on the PC and server segments, which are also sensitive to IT spending trends [25]. Valuation - AMD's target price is set at $260.00, reflecting a 32x C27E EPS, aligned with historical averages due to high growth in the AI sector [19]. - Intel's target price is set at $29.00, based on its estimated book value, which is lower than the average for semiconductor companies due to reduced profitability [24]. Conclusion - The microprocessor market remains competitive, with AMD and ARM gaining ground at the expense of Intel. The overall market shows resilience with above-seasonal shipment growth, but risks related to competition and market dependency on IT spending persist. Analyst ratings reflect a cautious outlook for Intel while maintaining a neutral stance on AMD.
