Broadcom reported Q2 FY2026 revenue of $22.187 billion, a 47.9% increase year-over-year, driven by AI semiconductor revenue soaring 143% to $10.8 billion. The company maintains strong profitability with a 69% adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow of $10.262 billion. Forward guidance is optimistic, projecting Q3 revenue around $29.4 billion and AI semiconductor revenue doubling year-over-year to $16 billion, with bookings exceeding $30 billion for Q2.

Despite risks from customer concentration and insider selling, Broadcom's near-monopoly in AI Ethernet switching and diversified hyperscaler partnerships support sustained growth and dividend increases, making it a compelling buy for investors seeking exposure to AI infrastructure growth.
