Seagate Technology Holdings reported fiscal second-quarter 2026 results that exceeded expectations, driven by strong data center demand and the continued ramp-up of its HAMR-based Mozaic products. Revenue reached $2.83 billion, while GAAP diluted earnings per share rose to $2.60 and non-GAAP EPS to $3.11. GAAP gross margin improved to 41.6%, reflecting record profitability for the company.
During the quarter, Seagate generated $723 million in operating cash flow and $607 million in free cash flow, retired $500 million of exchangeable senior notes due 2028, and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.74 per share. Looking ahead, the company guided for fiscal third-quarter 2026 revenue of about $2.9 billion and non-GAAP EPS of approximately $3.40, citing sustained exabyte-scale storage demand fueled by AI-driven data growth.
