Taiwan's Foxconn , the world's largest contract electronics maker, beat expectations to post its highest-ever revenue for the third quarter on strong demand for artificial intelligence servers.
Revenue for Apple's biggest iPhone assembler jumped 20.2% year on year to 1.85 trillion Taiwanese dollars ($57.3 billion).
"The result exceeded the company's original expectations of significant growth," Foxconn said in a statement on Saturday.
Strong AI server demand led to robust revenue growth for its cloud and networking products division, said Foxconn whose customers include AI chip firm Nvidia NVDA.O.
It has scheduled its annual Tech Day on Oct. 8-9, an event where Foxconn normally announces new products or partnerships.
