Revenue$10.9bn to $11.5bn$11.54bnAbove
Gross margin56%54%Below

The row that explains the reaction. AMD cleared the top of its own revenue range and still fell, because the margin line came in under the roughly 56% guided. Whether the reported 54% is on the same basis as the guide was not clear at the time, so that metric carries low confidence and stays out of the strict scorecard.

Straddle quoted at roughly 12.3% of spot against the August 3 close. The first extended-hours reaction ran 9 to 10%, inside the implied; the August 5 close settles the row.
