Dell exceeded its own robust worldwide growth expectations while achieving record revenue during fiscal first-quarter 2005.
Product shipments for the period ended April 30 were up 25 percent from the same quarter a year ago; volumes for the rest of the industry increased 14 percent. Dell growth was 38 percent in Asia-Pacific and Japan, where the company's share ranked No. 2 for the first time. Shipments in Europe, the Middle East and Africa increased 37 percent.
First-quarter company revenue was up 21 percent to $11.5 billion, higher than Dell's previous guidance. The company has now met or exceeded guidance to investors for 13 straight quarters. Net earnings were $731 million, or 28 cents per share, 22 percent higher than a year ago. Dell's growth in both product shipments and net income has surpassed 20 percent for seven consecutive quarters.
