Insights

Financial Analyst

NVIDIA's Q2 FY2025 results are exceptionally strong, showcasing remarkable growth. Revenue of $30.0 billion represents a 122% year-over-year increase, driven by explosive Data Center growth of 154%. The $26.3 billion Data Center revenue highlights NVIDIA's dominance in AI computing. With a gross margin of 75.1%, NVIDIA demonstrates strong pricing power and operational efficiency.

The company's forward guidance of $32.5 billion for Q3 FY2025 suggests continued momentum. The $50 billion share repurchase authorization signals management's confidence in future performance. However, investors should note the slight quarter-over-quarter decline in gross margins, which may indicate increasing competition or pricing pressures in certain segments.

Tech Industry Analyst

NVIDIA's results underscore its pivotal role in the AI revolution. The company's Hopper and upcoming Blackwell architectures are driving unprecedented demand from data centers and cloud providers. The introduction of NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet and AI Enterprise software demonstrates NVIDIA's evolution into a full-stack AI platform provider.

The adoption of NVIDIA's technologies by major players across various industries, from robotics to automotive, indicates the company's expanding influence beyond its traditional gaming market. However, the gaming segment's relatively modest 16% year-over-year growth suggests potential market saturation or increased competition in this space. The company's focus on generative AI and large language models positions it well for future growth, but maintaining such explosive growth rates may become challenging as the market matures.

Market Strategist

NVIDIA's performance is reshaping the tech industry landscape. The company's market cap has soared, making it one of the most valuable companies globally. This growth is driving significant changes in major stock indices, potentially affecting passive investment strategies and market dynamics.

The company's strong cash flow generation ($13.5 billion in free cash flow this quarter) and robust balance sheet ($34.8 billion in cash and marketable securities) provide ample resources for R&D investments and strategic acquisitions. However, investors should be cautious of the high expectations now priced into the stock. Any slowdown in AI adoption or increased competition could lead to significant volatility. The semiconductor industry's cyclical nature and potential regulatory scrutiny in AI technologies are additional risk factors to consider.

• Record quarterly revenue of $30.0 billion, up 15% from Q1 and up 122% from a year ago 
• Record quarterly Data Center revenue of $26.3 billion, up 16% from Q1 and up 154% from a year ago

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported revenue for the second quarter ended July 28, 2024, of $30.0 billion, up 15% from the previous quarter and up 122% from a year ago.

For the quarter, GAAP earnings per diluted share was $0.67, up 12% from the previous quarter and up 168% from a year ago. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share was $0.68, up 11% from the previous quarter and up 152% from a year ago.

“Hopper demand remains strong, and the anticipation for Blackwell is incredible,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “NVIDIA achieved record revenues as global data centers are in full throttle to modernize the entire computing stack with accelerated computing and generative AI.”

“Blackwell samples are shipping to our partners and customers. Spectrum-X Ethernet for AI and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software are two new product categories achieving significant scale, demonstrating that NVIDIA is a full-stack and data center-scale platform. Across the entire stack and ecosystem, we are helping frontier model makers to consumer internet services, and now enterprises. Generative AI will revolutionize every industry.”

During the first half of fiscal 2025, NVIDIA returned $15.4 billion to shareholders in the form of shares repurchased and cash dividends. As of the end of the second quarter, the company had $7.5 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorization. On August 26, 2024, the Board of Directors approved an additional $50.0 billion in share repurchase authorization, without expiration.

NVIDIA will pay its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on October 3, 2024, to all shareholders of record on September 12, 2024.

On June 7, 2024, NVIDIA completed a ten-for-one forward stock split. All share and per-share amounts presented have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

Conference Call and Webcast Information
NVIDIA will conduct a conference call with analysts and investors to discuss its second quarter fiscal 2025 financial results and current financial prospects today at 2 p.m. Pacific time (5 p.m. Eastern time). A live webcast (listen-only mode) of the conference call will be accessible at NVIDIA’s investor relations website, https://investor.nvidia.com. The webcast will be recorded and available for replay until NVIDIA’s conference call to discuss its financial results for its third quarter of fiscal 2025.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement NVIDIA’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income, or earnings, per diluted share, and free cash flow. For NVIDIA’s investors to be better able to compare its current results with those of previous periods, the company has shown a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related and other costs, other, gains from non-affiliated investments and publicly-held equity securities, net, interest expense related to amortization of debt discount, and the associated tax impact of these items where applicable. Free cash flow is calculated as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less both purchases related to property and equipment and intangible assets and principal payments on property and equipment and intangible assets. NVIDIA believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user’s overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance. The presentation of the company’s non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the company’s non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
