Earnings per share came in at $1.20, compared with the $1.17 that analysts had expected, according to a Bloomberg survey.
Revenue for the quarter was $9.25 billion, which should be weighed against the expected $8.74 billion.
The result is an increase from the same quarter last year, when AMD's earnings per share were 92 cents and sales reached $6.8 billion.
AMD now expects revenue of $9.6 billion in the fourth quarter.
The company's CEO Lisa Su says in a statement that she is satisfied:
“Our record third-quarter results and strong fourth-quarter forecast mark a clear step up in our growth trajectory,” she says.
AMD has recently closed major deals with, among others, Open AI and cloud services giant Oracle, but the effects of these are expected to have an impact on the company's future quarterly reports.
So far this year, AMD's stock price has surged 107 percent.
Ahead of the report, the stock had fallen 3.7 percent on Wall Street, and half an hour after the figures were released, it was down another 3 percent in after-hours trading.
The New York Stock Exchange was characterized throughout Tuesday by growing concerns that primarily AI-related companies are overvalued after the sharp rises in recent months.
