Seagate Technology Holdings PLC (STX)
The company now
Seagate reported fiscal first quarter 2027 revenue of $4,233 million for the quarter ended 2 October 2026, against $2,629 million a year earlier 1. Gross margin, the share of revenue left after production costs, was 57.3 percent on a GAAP basis 1. Net income was $1,761 million, or $7.59 per diluted share 1.
Revenue grew $1.6 billion from the year-earlier quarter, the company says, primarily because of favorable pricing actions and more nearline exabytes shipped, which are the high-capacity drives cloud customers use 2. In all it shipped 220 exabytes in the quarter 2.
Operations produced $1.7 billion, about $1.2 billion of debt was retired, and $568 million went back to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases 1. After the quarter another $750 million of principal was retired, leaving gross debt at $1.6 billion 1.
For the fiscal second quarter 2027 the company guided to revenue of $4.8 billion, plus or minus $100 million, and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $9.20, plus or minus $0.20 1. The open question is how long demand and pricing last: chief executive Dave Mosley pointed to a strengthening demand environment and a multi-year growth phase 1.
