Cisco Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO) reported revenue of $14.7 billion for the fourth quarter ended July 26, 2025, an increase of 8 percent from a year earlier, driven by growth in product orders across all geographies.

In a statement, the company said fourth-quarter product orders rose 7 percent year-on-year, with AI infrastructure orders from webscale customers exceeding $800 million in the quarter and bringing the full-year total to more than $2 billion, over double the original $1 billion target.

Full-year revenue rose 5 percent to $56.7 billion. GAAP earnings per share were $2.61, up 3 percent from the previous year, while non-GAAP earnings per share were $3.81, up 2 percent.
