Raspberry Pi Surges to New Highs on Profit Boost
6 Jun
Summary
- Company upgrades full-year profit outlook, shares hit all-time high.
- Strong pricing and industrial demand mitigate chip cost challenges.
- Strategic memory purchases planned to secure supply for future goals.
Raspberry Pi announced an upgraded profit outlook for the full fiscal year 2026, causing its shares to reach an unprecedented high. The Cambridge-based company reported that strategic pricing and strong demand from industrial sectors helped it overcome challenges posed by rising memory-chip costs.
Profitability per unit is expected to moderate in the second half of the fiscal year as lower-priced chip inventory diminishes. The company anticipates its core profit for the six months ending June 30 to be at least $38 million, nearing the full-year analyst consensus.
To secure necessary inventory amid an AI-driven scarcity, Raspberry Pi plans to utilize debt facilities for strategic memory purchases. The company expressed confidence in meeting its FY 2026 production targets, noting the crucial role of its low-cost computers in various industrial applications.
