“We also updated our fiscal 2029 financial targets, which now include more than $24 billion in revenue across automotive and IoT plus more than $15 billion in data center, bringing our total non-handset revenue outlook to $40 billion by fiscal 2029, up from our previous target of $22 billion.”The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
