After the closing bell yesterday, NVIDIA (NVDA) cheered investors with first-quarter fiscal 2019 results. Though this biggest maker of graphics processors missed on revenues, its earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The company offered an upbeat guidance for the current fiscal year, buoyed by strong demand for its gaming chips and higher sales to data centers.

Shares of NVDA rose more than 7% initially following the earnings announcement in after-hours trading but lost most of the initial gains.

Q1 Earnings in Focus

Earnings per share came in at 88 cents, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6 cents but declining 57% from the year-ago quarter. Revenues dropped 31% year over year to $2.22 billion and also slightly missed the estimated figure of $2.25 billion.

NVIDIA expects revenues of approximately $2.55 billion (+/-2%) for the second quarter of fiscal 2020, much higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.51 billion. It anticipates its graphics chip sales to benefit from a recovery in the gaming market. While Nvidia has been penetrating newer growth areas, such as data centers, artificial intelligence and self-driving cars, the company's key business remains selling chips that enhance video game graphics.

NVIDIA currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) and a VGM Score of D. It falls within a top-ranked Zacks industry (top 41%).
