Nvidia Shatters Records with Stellar Q4 Earnings Amid AI Boom
Nvidia, the leading AI chipmaker, reported record-breaking earnings for its fiscal fourth quarter, surpassing Wall Street expectations as demand for its artificial intelligence (AI) technology continues to surge. The company posted $39.3 billion in revenue, marking a 78% year-over-year increase, and $22.1 billion in net income, a 71% jump from the previous year. These results exceeded analysts’ forecasts of $38.1 billion in revenue and $0.85 adjusted earnings per share.
The data center segment, which includes Nvidia’s graphics processing units (GPUs) powering generative AI models, drove the majority of the revenue, bringing in $35.6 billion—well above the expected $33.5 billion. CEO Jensen Huang highlighted the “amazing” demand for the company’s Blackwell GPU system, which has already achieved billions in sales since its launch late last year. Looking ahead, Nvidia projected first-quarter revenue of $43 billion, slightly above Wall Street estimates of $42.7 billion.
Despite the strong performance, Nvidia’s stock experienced a slight dip in after-hours trading, attributed to a marginal decline in gross profit margins due to the transition to more complex and costly systems. The company’s growth, while robust, has slowed compared to previous quarters, reflecting the challenges of maintaining momentum as it scales. Nevertheless, Nvidia remains a dominant force in the AI market, capturing an estimated 95% of the global GPU market.
The earnings report comes amid broader market uncertainty, with tech stocks facing pressure due to concerns over economic policies and competition from less expensive AI models. Nvidia’s stock has declined nearly 10% over the past month, reflecting investor anxiety. However, analysts remain optimistic, with an average price target of $175, suggesting significant upside potential. As the AI revolution continues, Nvidia’s leadership in the sector positions it as a key player in shaping the future of technology.
