Cisco (CSCO)🀅 reported fiscal third-quarter revenue and profits that topped analysts’ projections, thanks in part to strong demand for AI infrastructure.

The networking-equipment provider’s revenue rose 11% year-over-year to $14.15 billion, above the analyst consensus from Visible Alpha. Adjusted net income of $3.83 billion, or 96 cents per share, improved from $3.55 billion, or 88 cents🔯 per share, in the year-ago quarter and exceeded estimates.

The gains came as AI infrastructure orders surpassed $600 million in the period, w✨hich Cisco said brought its🎐 yearly total above $1 billion a quarter ahead of schedule.

The results show "clear demand for our technologies," CEO Chuck Robbins said. "The momentum we are seeing with AI is fueled by the power of our secure networking portfolio, our trusted global partnerships, and the value we bring to our customers."

Looking ahead, Cisco projected fiscal fourth-quarter revenue of $14.5 billion to $14.7 billion and adjusted 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:earnings per share of 96 cents to 98 cents. Analysts were loo꧑king for $14.53 billioꦗn and EPS of 95 cents, respectively.
