Foxconn, the world's largest contract electronics manufacturer, has reported record-breaking revenue for the third quarter, driven by a surge in demand for artificial intelligence (AI) servers. The Taiwanese company, known for its role as Apple's primary iPhone assembler, saw a 20.2% year-on-year increase in revenue to T$1.85 trillion ($57.3 billion).

The strong performance was primarily fueled by robust demand for AI servers, which led to significant growth in Foxconn's cloud and networking products division. Key customers, such as AI chip manufacturer Nvidia, contributed to this growth. According to TrendForce, the AI server market is projected to reach $187 billion in 2024, with a growth rate of 69% and a market share of 65% of the total server market value.

The increasing adoption of AI by businesses has contributed to Foxconn's AI server demand. As AI becomes more integrated into various industries, the need for powerful and efficient servers to process and analyze data has grown. AI chip manufacturers like Nvidia play a crucial role in Foxconn's AI server production and demand, as they supply the necessary components for these high-performance systems.

Foxconn's strategic partnerships with AI companies have also significantly impacted its AI server revenue growth. By collaborating with leading AI chip manufacturers and other technology companies, Foxconn can stay at the forefront of AI server innovation and better meet the evolving needs of its customers.

As Foxconn enters the peak season in the second half of the year, it anticipates that its operations will gain momentum, driven by strong AI server demand and the upcoming holiday period. While the company remains cautious about its fourth-quarter outlook, it expects the quarter to align with current market expectations.

Foxconn will release its full third-quarter earnings on November 14 and will hold its annual Tech Day event on October 8-9, where it is expected to announce new products and partnerships. As the demand for AI servers continues to grow, Foxconn is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend and maintain its strong financial performance in the coming years.
