Nvidia Earnings in Focus

Earnings per share came in at $1.17, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.11 and improving 60% from the year-ago earnings. Revenues jumped 50% year over year to a record $7.10 billion and outpaced the consensus mark of $6.83 billion. The strong results were driven by record revenues in gaming, data center, and professional visualization market platforms.

Gaming revenues climbed 42% year over year to $3.22 billion while data center sales surged 55% to $2.94 billion. Surging demand for Nvidia AI is driven by hyperscale and cloud scale-out, and broader adoption by more than 25,000 companies.

Nvidia provided revenue guidance for the fiscal fourth quarter of $7.40 billion (+/-2%). This is well above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $6.89 billion. The chipmaker is expected to see continued momentum in the gaming business for the rest for the year led by new gaming titles and holiday season.
