Foxconn predicts AI server revenue will surpass iPhone revenue within two years, possibly as soon as this year. As a key Nvidia supplier, Foxconn is capitalizing on booming AI demand, with AI servers set to make up over half of its total server revenue in 2024.
Taiwan’s Foxconn, the world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer and Apple’s primary iPhone supplier, anticipates that its server revenue will surpass its iPhone revenue within two years. According to Taiwan’s Central News Agency, Foxconn Chairman Young Liu suggested this shift could even occur as early as this year.
Foxconn plays a pivotal role in manufacturing Nvidia’s latest artificial intelligence servers, including the GB200 and GB300 series. Liu confirmed that while Foxconn does not produce all Nvidia systems, it handles the majority of them. Speaking on a live podcast at Nvidia’s GTC developer conference, Liu reaffirmed the company’s strong position in the AI server market.
In its recent earnings call, Foxconn projected its AI server revenue to reach T$1 trillion ($30.29 billion) in 2024, making up over half of its total server revenue. The company’s cloud and networking revenue is set to rival that of its smart consumer electronics division, which includes iPhones. In 2024, 30% of Foxconn’s revenue stemmed from cloud and networking products, while 46% came from smart consumer electronics. This shift underscores the growing demand for AI infrastructure worldwide.
