Gross margin increased to 49% from 46% YoY, primarily driven by higher Data Center segment revenue. The increase in gross margin was partially offset by lower semi-custom revenue.
Net income increased to $265 million, compared to $27 million YoY. This increase was primarily driven by higher revenue and gross margin and lower amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.
