Lenovo delivered a blowout quarter on Friday, and the market noticed. The Hong Kong-listed stock surged as much as 20%, putting it on track for its highest close since listing in 1994.
For the three months ended March 31, revenue came in at $21.6 billion, up 27% year-over-year. That is the company’s fastest quarterly growth in five years. Net profit hit $521 million, up from just $90 million a year earlier and well ahead of the $291 million analyst consensus.

Full-year revenue for fiscal 2026 reached $83.1 billion, a 20% increase. Annual profit attributable to stockholders rose 38% to $1.91 billion.
AI was the engine behind all of it. AI-related revenue doubled during the year and made up one-third of total group sales. In Q4 alone, AI revenue accounted for 38% of the total.
Infrastructure Business Hits a Turning Point
Lenovo’s infrastructure solutions unit, which covers AI servers and data center equipment, posted record quarterly revenue and operating profit. For the full year, it brought in $19.2 billion in revenue and returned to profitability after a difficult period.
CEO Yang Yuanqing called it “an inflection point” for that business, and analysts at DBS had previously flagged that sustainable profitability in the server unit was on the horizon as AI deployments scale up and liquid cooling becomes standard in new data centers.
The company now expects the infrastructure unit to become a second major growth engine alongside its core devices business.
PC Leadership Holds, Premium Mix Grows
On the devices side, the intelligent devices group — covering PCs and smartphones — posted 17% annual revenue growth. Lenovo held its position as the world’s largest PC maker, with a 24.4% global market share in Q4, a record high according to IDC.
Premium PCs made up 50% of total shipments in the latest quarter, up from prior periods.
The board proposed a final dividend of HK$0.337 per share, up from HK$0.305 a year earlier.
With full-year revenue at $83.1 billion, Lenovo has now set its next target: $100 billion in annual sales within two years. The plan rests on three pillars — scaling AI infrastructure, growing the services business, and defending device market leadership.
One risk factor worth watching: a global memory chip shortage driven by the AI build-out is pushing up component costs. Analysts have flagged this as a potential margin pressure. Yang acknowledged the challenge, saying Lenovo will lean on its supply chain strength to manage it.
“The strength of every PC vendor’s supply chain and ability to access core components, such as memory, will be tested,” said IDC analyst Jean Philippe Bouchard.
