Description: AVGO Broadcom December 02, 2025
Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) designs, develops, and supplies a broad portfolio of semiconductor devices and infrastructure-software solutions, organized into two primary segments: Semiconductor Solutions and Infrastructure Software. Its product slate spans Ethernet switching and routing silicon, optical and copper PHYs, fiber-optic transceivers, set-top-box SoCs, DSL/PON access chips, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/GNSS SoCs, RF front-end modules, custom flash controllers, and a range of industrial and medical sensors, among others. These components power enterprise and data-center networking (including AI-focused networking), consumer broadband, smartphones, base stations, factory automation, power-generation equipment, and electronic displays.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately **$37.5 billion**, delivering an operating margin near **35 %**, and the company generated **$13 billion** of free cash flow, supporting a **~3.5 % dividend yield** and ongoing share-repurchase programs. Broadcom’s backlog growth in 2024 is projected at **8-10 % YoY**, driven largely by data-center and 5G infrastructure demand.
Macro-level drivers shaping Broadcom’s outlook include: (1) **Accelerating AI workloads** that boost demand for high-speed Ethernet and custom silicon; (2) **5G rollout and edge-computing expansion**, increasing orders for RF front-end modules and connectivity chips; and (3) **Supply-chain normalization** after the 2020-2022 chip shortage, which is easing lead-times and allowing the company to capture market share through its diversified product mix.
