In the first three quarters of 2026, ZTE reported total revenues of 116.84 billion yuan, marking a robust year-on-year increase of 16.2%. The net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company stood at 4.06 billion yuan, while the net profit excluding non-recurring gains and losses reached 2.81 billion yuan. Notably, the company maintained a positive net cash flow from operating activities. Both core financial metrics—revenue and profit—achieved all-time highs for the first three quarters of any year.
In the third quarter alone, ZTE generated 38.81 billion yuan in revenue, with a net profit attributable to shareholders of 1.31 billion yuan. Both figures demonstrated double-digit year-on-year growth, underscoring the company's strong operational momentum.
Three key sectors—computing power, terminals, and international markets—have emerged as the primary drivers of ZTE's revenue expansion. The computing power business, in particular, saw its revenue share surge from 25% in the same period of 2025 to 38%, cementing its role as a core growth engine. Revenues from computing-related operations soared by over 70% year-on-year, with server and storage product revenues also jumping more than 70% annually. Meanwhile, data center product revenues skyrocketed by nearly 130% year-on-year.
In the terminal segment, ZTE continued its market dominance, with home terminal product shipments surpassing 100 million units for the second consecutive year. The company has now held the top global market share for five years running. Additionally, several niche products within this category have secured leading positions both globally and domestically.
