SanDisk reported its Q1 2026 earnings, posting revenue of $2.31 billion—an increase of 21% from the $1.901 billion reported in Q4 2025—and a non‑GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.22, well above the company’s guidance range of $0.70 to $0.90.
Revenue growth was largely driven by a 26% sequential rise in the datacenter segment, reflecting robust demand for AI‑infrastructure solutions. Management noted that “Customers are turning to Sandisk for our leading technology and products, which are exceptionally well positioned at a time when demand is strengthening.”
The company’s non‑GAAP gross margin expanded to 29.9%, up 3.6 percentage points from the prior quarter, underscoring pricing power and effective cost control amid a favorable supply‑demand balance in the memory market.
For the second quarter, SanDisk guided revenue of $2.55 billion to $2.65 billion and non‑GAAP diluted EPS of $3.00 to $3.40, signaling confidence in continued demand and margin resilience.
Investors welcomed the results, citing the strong demand narrative and margin expansion. CEO David Goeckeler emphasized the company’s financial strength, stating, “Our strong balance sheet and leading portfolio, combined with this phase of renewed growth and profitability, enabled us to achieve our net cash positive milestone ahead of plan and is positioning us to drive meaningful long-term value for our shareholders.”
