10-K for the fiscal year ended Jul 3, 2026
Filed Aug 14, 2026 · Read the filing on EDGAR
- Revenue rose 36% to $12.92 billion and operating income nearly doubled to $4.45 billion. Gross margin climbed to 48.9% on strong cloud demand and higher prices.
- Net income of $9.42 billion was boosted by a one-off $6.50 billion gain on Sandisk shares. The company no longer holds any Sandisk stock.
- The company used Sandisk shares and cash to pay off most of its debt. It also bought back $2.59 billion of stock and added $4 billion to its buyback authorisation.
- Customers are more concentrated: the top 10 now make up 73% of sales, and three customers each account for 13% to 16%.
Business momentum
Strong improvement
“Net revenue increased by 36% in 2026 compared to 2025, primarily driven by a 25% increase in exabytes sold and an 8% increase in ASPs per exabyte, both of which were driven by strong demand across all of our end markets.”
Outlook
Positive
“In response, customers are partnering with us earlier to support their future growth requirements and are extending the duration of their commercial arrangements, which improves our long-term visibility of demand.”
Financial stress
Low
“We believe our existing cash and cash expected to be generated from our business will be adequate to meet our debt repayment requirements.”
Tone against the previous report
About the same
Red flags
None found in this report.
Positives
Much higher margins
“Gross margin increased 10.1 percentage points in 2026 compared to 2025.”
Operating cash flow more than doubled
“Operating activities $ 3,929 $ 1,691 $ (294)”
Most debt paid off
“As described in “Key Developments – Capital Allocation Actions” above, we undertook several financing actions during 2026, to settle a substantial portion of our debt.”
Concerns
Heavy reliance on a few customers
“For 2026, three customers accounted for 16%, 15%, and 13%, respectively, of our net revenue.”
Profit inflated by one-off Sandisk gain
“The change primarily reflects a mark-to-market gain on our retained interest in Sandisk of $6.50 billion in the current year compared to a loss of $772 million in the prior year.”
Near-term cash calls from convertible notes and tax payments
“We expect the settlement of these notes will require the use of an aggregate $710 million of cash to settle the principal amount with substantially all of any premium being settled in shares under the original terms of the notes.”
New risks since the previous report
Long-term supply deals may lock in prices
“As a result, we may be obligated to continue selling products to these customers even when demand from other customers, prevailing market prices, or other sales opportunities would be more favorable to us”
Middle East conflict and Chinese rare-earth export limits
“Additionally, China has imposed export restrictions on rare earth minerals and related materials critical to semiconductor and hard drive manufacturing.”
Energy concerns about AI data centres could hurt demand
“Environmental concerns about the energy demands of AI workloads, including actual or perceived environmental issues associated with data center power consumption, could lead to regulatory constraints on data center development”
Customer base shifting toward newer cloud providers
“We may also experience changes to our customer base, such as a greater portion of our business shifting to neocloud and other customers.”
Big cloud customers could cut AI spending
“As it evolves, our hyperscale customers could lower their investment in AI infrastructure.”
Biggest risks named
- Dependence on cloud demand and a few large customers
- Hard-drive industry cycles and swings in demand and pricing
- Tariffs, geopolitical conflict and supply disruptions
- Risks of moving to new HAMR drive technology
- Commitments under long-term customer agreements

How these scores work
An AI model reads the management discussion, risk factors and legal sections of each report and records what they say, quoting the filing word for word. Fixed rules then turn those findings into a score from 0 to 100, where 60 means nothing notable either way. A score describes the report, not whether the stock is a good investment, and the AI may know how things turned out later, which can colour older scores. Read the methodology
