Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.0 billion in 2024, primarily due to our net income of $1.6 billion in 2024, adjusted for non-cash adjustments of $3.5 billion and net cash outflows of $2.1 billion from changes in our operating assets and liabilities. The primary drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities included a $1.9 billion increase in accounts receivable driven primarily by higher revenue in the last month of 2024 compared to the last month of 2023, and a $1.5 billion increase in inventories driven primarily by a build of inventory to support the ramp of new products in advanced process nodes.

The markets in which our products are sold are highly competitive and rapidly evolving and delivering the latest and best products to market on time is critical to revenue growth. The competitiveness of our products depends on a number of factors including, performance, total cost of ownership, timely product introductions, product quality and reliability, product features and capabilities, energy efficiency (including power consumption and battery life, given their impact on total cost of ownership), size (or form factor), selling price, cost, adherence to industry standards (and the creation of open industry standards), level of integration, software and hardware compatibility, ease of use and functionality of software design tools, completeness of applicable software solutions, security and stability, brand recognition and availability. Competition is expected to remain intense, driven by rapid technological change, evolving standards, shifting customer preferences, product obsolescence, and frequent product launches from both established and new competitors.
In 2025, we delivered strong annual revenue growth with net revenue increasing 34% to $34.6 billion, compared to $25.8 billion in 2024. This growth was driven by the performance of our Data Center and Client and Gaming segments. Data Center net revenue of $16.6 billion increased by 32% compared to $12.6 billion in 2024, primarily driven by strong demand for our 5th generation AMD EPYC™ processors and AMD Instinct™ MI350 Series GPUs. Client and Gaming segment net revenue of $14.6 billion in 2025 increased by 51% compared to $9.6 billion in 2024, primarily driven by strong demand for our AMD Ryzen™ processors, semi-custom game consoles SoCs and Radeon™ gaming GPUs. The increase in annual net revenue was partially offset by a decrease in net revenue in our Embedded segment. Embedded net revenue of $3.5 billion decreased by 3% compared to net revenue of $3.6 billion in 2024, as certain end market demand remained mixed.
We recorded an income tax benefit of $103 million and an income tax provision of $381 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively, representing effective tax rates of (2.5%) and 19%, respectively. The decrease in income tax provision in 2025 was primarily driven by an $853 million benefit related to the release of uncertain tax positions pertaining to the reasonable cause relief for dual consolidated losses approved by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in April 2025, whereas the income tax provision in 2024 included $373 million tax effect from an intercompany integration transaction.
Evolving U.S. government policy toward semiconductor exports, particularly in the context of national security and foreign policy priorities could adversely affect our business. In October 2023, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the United States Department of Commerce issued requirements for the export of certain advanced computing items to a party headquartered in, or with an ultimate parent headquartered in, any of Country Groups D1, D4 or D5, including China (a D5 Country). These controls prevent us from shipping certain AMD Instinct™ integrated circuits and certain AMD Versal™ FPGAs to China, or to customers outside of the United States who are headquartered in—or whose ultimate parent is headquartered in—a D5 Country, without a license. BIS may not timely update performance-based licensing thresholds in the 2023 export requirements and/or may issue new licensing requirements and regulatory controls in the future. Accordingly, there is a risk that new products which exceed current licensing thresholds, or even those below current licensing thresholds, may not succeed
Uncertain global or regional economic conditions have and may in the future adversely impact our business. Uncertainty in the economic environment or other unfavorable changes in economic conditions, such as inflation, fluctuating interest rates, recession, slowing growth, increased unemployment, tighter credit markets, changes or uncertainty in fiscal monetary or trade policy, implementation of new or increased tariffs, retaliatory tariffs by other countries or other trade restrictions, or currency fluctuations, may negatively impact consumer confidence and spending causing our customers to stop or postpone purchases. During challenging economic times, our current or potential future customers may experience cash flow problems and as a result may modify, delay or cancel plans to purchase our products. Additionally, if our customers are not successful in generating sufficient revenue or are unable to secure financing, they may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable that they owe us. If current or prospective customers default on or delay payments to us, our
Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $6.5 billion in 2025, primarily due to our net income of $4.3 billion in 2025, adjusted for non-cash adjustments of $4.6 billion and net cash outflows of $2.4 billion from changes in our operating assets and liabilities. The primary drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities included a $2.2 billion increase in inventory primarily to support the continued ramp of Data Center products in advanced process technology nodes. Net cash provided by operating activities of the ZT Manufacturing Business, classified as discontinued operations, was $1.2 billion.
In this section, we will describe the general financial condition and the results of operations of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “us,” “our” or “AMD”), including a discussion of our results of operations for 2025 compared to 2024, an analysis of changes in our financial condition and a discussion of our off-balance sheet arrangements.
