Oct 7 (Reuters) - Dell raised its long-term
revenue and profit growth forecasts on Tuesday, signaling robust
demand for its servers that power artificial intelligence
workloads.
Insatiable demand for computing power needed to train and
run generative AI products such as ChatGPT has driven strong
demand for companies including Dell and Super Micro Computer ( SMCI )
.
Dell now expects compounded annual revenue growth between 7%
and 9%, up from its prior forecast of 3% to 4%.
The company also raised its expectations for annual growth
in adjusted earnings per share to at least 15%, nearly double
its previous target of 8%.
"Customers are hungry for AI and the compute, storage and
networking we provide to deploy intelligence at scale," CEO
Michael Dell said in a statement.
