Acer Logs Best Second Quarter in 13 Years on AI-Driven Demand

The Taipei-based hardware giant reported consolidated revenues for June at NT$27.82 billion, a 6.3 percent increase over the previous month. These figures cement a strong first half of 2026, with total revenues hitting NT$157.73 billion, representing a 23.3 percent climb compared to the same period last year.

Driving these results is a aggressive diversification strategy. While core PC revenue grew by 22 percent, specialized segments saw more dramatic gains: desktop revenue jumped 57.3 percent, tablet PCs rose by 53.9 percent, and commercial product lines expanded by 47.3 percent. These spikes are largely attributed to the accelerated deployment of AI applications across enterprise and consumer hardware. Beyond traditional computing, Acer’s non-PC and display businesses now account for over one-third of the group’s total revenue, with that segment growing 48.2 percent in the second quarter alone.
