Upgrade / downgrade cycle

Data Centre demand momentum

H1 FY27 Data Centre below H2 FY26, demand strong

Data Centre demand drove two FY26 upgrades (Jan and Mar 2026); FY26 revenue $1,242.6m with Data Centre about doubling. The 19 Oct 2026 update says H1 FY27 Data Centre revenue was well ahead of the prior year but below H2 FY26, as supply conditions normalised and the temporary share gain faded. Underlying demand remains strong; next-generation products are due to ramp in FY2028.
