Second-quarter 2026 operating income increased 32.3% year over year to $3.514 billion from $2.656 billion, lifting operating margin to approximately 35.0% from 28.9%. Six-month operating income increased 61.2% to $6.180 billion from $3.834 billion, and operating margin increased to approximately 33.1% from 22.1%. Six-month cost of sales declined 7.1% to $5.555 billion from $5.979 billion, primarily reflecting lower finite-lived intangible-asset amortization of $1.8 billion versus $2.3 billion in the prior-year period. Second-quarter research and development expense increased 7.1% to $1.868 billion, partially offsetting the benefit from lower cost of sales.
