Hon Hai Precision Industry, better known as Foxconn, posted record consolidated revenue for October as demand for AI products, consumer electronics and computing equipment remained strong. The figures were reported in the company's unaudited monthly revenue release and covered the month ended October 31.

The Economic Times reported that October revenue reached NT$1.305 trillion, an increase of 45.73 percent from October 2025. Revenue also rose 12.66 percent from September, making October the company's highest-revenue month on record.

AI demand drives the next checkpoint

Cloud and networking products, the segment most closely linked to AI infrastructure, showed strong year-on-year growth as customers pulled forward AI-related orders. The segment declined slightly from September, however, with Foxconn citing changes in the consignment model, tight supply conditions and the initial ramp-up of new models.

All four major product categories grew year on year. Smart consumer electronics benefited from higher shipment prices and stronger customer demand, while computing products gained from higher shipment prices and early shipments of new products. Components and other products also recorded stronger demand.

Revenue for January through October reached NT$8.98 trillion, up 40.40 percent from the same period a year earlier. In US dollar terms, the ten-month increase was 38.4 percent, although the reported figures had not been reviewed or audited by a certified public accountant.

Fourth-quarter expectations remain central

Foxconn said AI-related operations should continue growing in the fourth quarter. The company expects the traditional second-half peak season for information and communications technology products to support overall performance in line with current market expectations. It also cautioned that the global political and economic environment remains volatile.

The next major operating test comes with Foxconn's third-quarter results conference on November 12. The company's November monthly revenue report is expected on December 5, giving investors a further indication of whether AI-related demand and new-model production ramps are sustaining the recent sales momentum.
