The profit per share during the quarter became 48 cents, which was completely in line with what the analysts expected on average. It meant a fall from 69 cents per share during the second quarter last year.

The turnover landed at 7.7 billion dollars, which can be compared to the 7.43 billion that the market believed in on average. It meant an increase of about 30 percent compared to the same quarter last year.

In May, AMD warned that stricter export restrictions to China for the company's chips would reduce turnover during the quarter by 800 million dollars.

Despite the export setbacks, AMD's share has recovered in recent times and since the turn of the year is up 45 percent. This is not least due to increased hope that exports to China of certain chips can soon be resumed, when American authorities have given their approval.

The company has now climbed to place 35 on the list of the world's highest valued listed companies.

Last week, the major bank UBS raised its target price for the AMD share to 210 dollars, from previously 160 dollars.

When the stock exchange closed in New York on Tuesday, AMD had fallen back 1.4 percent, to a price of 174 dollars.

In after-hours trading in New York, the share was 4.6 percent down about 15 minutes after the report was released.
