- Nvidia (NVDA) reported its fourth quarter earnings after the bell on Wednesday, beating analysts' expectations on the top and bottom lines.
For the quarter, Nvidia reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $5.16 on revenue of $22.1 billion. Analysts were expecting EPS of $4.60 on revenue of $20.4 billion. That's a massive jump from the same period last quarter when Nvidia reported EPS of $0.88 on $6.1 billion a year ago. To put a finer point on Nvidia's performance, the company reported $27 billion in revenue for all of 2022.
The company also guided higher than analysts' expectations for the first quarter, saying it anticipates revenue of $24 billion, plus or minus 2%. Wall Street was expecting $21.9 billion for the quarter.
Accelerated computing and generative AI have hit the tipping point. Demand is surging worldwide across companies, industries and nations,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in a statement following the report.
“Our Data Center platform is powered by increasingly diverse drivers - demand for data processing, training, and inference from large cloud-service providers and GPU-specialized ones, as well as from enterprise software and consumer internet companies. Vertical industries - led by auto, financial services and healthcare - are now at a multibillion-dollar level," he added.
Despite the across-the-board beat, Nvidia did have at least one negative comment in its report with CFO Colette Kress warning that data center revenue out of China fell "significantly" in Q4 due to US licensing requirements. The US has blacklisted the sale of certain Nvidia chips to China on fears that they could be used for military applications.
Nvidia's all-important Data Center business, which includes sales of its high-powered GPUs for AI applications, saw revenue of $18.4 billion, beating analysts' expectations of $17.2 billion. The company reported revenue of $3.62 billion in the same quarter last year. Overall, Nvidia's Data Center revenue jumped 217% on the year.
While Nvidia's Data Center segment is driving the ship, its gaming business is still an important piece of the company. Revenue for the division topped out at $2.9 billion. Investors were expecting revenue of $2.7 billion, up from $1.8 billion last year.
Nvidia's stock price has skyrocketed more than 200% over the last 12 months, easily outpacing rivals AMD (AMD) and Intel (INTC), thanks to its position as the world's leading AI chipmaker.
Nvidia’s growth, however, faces challenges from all sides. The company’s chief rival, AMD, is investing heavily in its own AI chips, including its new MI300X. According to AMD, the chip surpasses Nvidia’s H100 in certain workloads, but Nvidia has refuted those claims, saying AMD’s testing was incomplete. Intel also has its own server chips and continues to build on their capabilities.
Nvidia’s customers are also increasingly looking to develop their own specialized AI chips to ease their reliance on Nvidia’s offerings. Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Tesla (TSLA) are just a few of the big-name firms that either currently offer or are actively developing their own in-house AI chips.
And that could prove especially problematic as the company said more than half of its Data Center revenue in Q4 came from large cloud providers for internal workloads and external customers.
But Nvidia isn’t taking this threat lying down. According to Reuters, the company has met with Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and OpenAI to discuss building custom chips for them.
Shares of Nvidia were up more than 5% following the report.

Market highs can sometimes be followed by corrections, but predicting the timing and extent of it is challenging. I've heard some analysts talk about a 'massive' correction. It makes me wonder if it's time to adjust my $2M portfolios or maybe even consider some defensive investments.
Consider diversifying your portfolio with a mix of stocks and stable assets. Seeking professional advice now could provide valuable insights and strategies to navigate market uncertainties and protect your investments.
You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a CFA, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst.
impressive gains! how can I get your advisor please, if you dont mind me asking? I could really use a help as of now
Evelyn Alicia Schoenholtz' is the licensed coach I use. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.
Astounding performance. Historic

@@keegankirk8848 I was like, I'll miss this bandwagon forever, but at ~660 I couldn't resist.
It was $662 not 660
Thanks 👏
Data centers have become Nvidias bread and butter, it's 83% of revenue. Wowzers!
Can anyone point out where CoreWeave is in all this?
new drinking game: drink every time when you hear "AI"
Cant argue with that math. The bears will go on and on but fundamentals matter....and guess what, they move stock prices!
NVDA's earnings call was so good, even my psp wants a piece of the action! 🚀🎮
Thank you NVDA workers and researchers and the US taxpayers for providing the education and R&D support that makes this possible.
Nobody talks about the taxpayer ROI when they fund these AI breakthroughs via grants and support for universities, NVDA gets to reap the benefit of graduates who did their first ai project at a uni, and the taxpayer invests in them via retirement funds.
The actual people paying for this is gamers, not some government fund.
AI research was made possible by GPUs, not the other way around.
Gamers funded Nvidia for the decade to make CUDA possible, not some government grant.

Does someone the moment where he sais: Accelerated computing and generative AI have hit the tipping point. Demand is surging worldwide across companies, industries and nations????

Tell me you ain't insider trading colluding without telling me

So ridiculous 😅😅
Matthew 5:48 Jesus says: "Be holy (PERFECT) as your Father who is in heaven is Perfect (INFINITY)8
Hoping for split soon 🙏 😅
When correction comes, It will be 40-50% correction
So back to 500 and then to 3000
Enron Huang.
This company is scam.
Just listen and scroll away. I bet this is rocket science to you
Bag holder spotted! Did you buy puts lol
At this point only world governments can slow it down. Some politicians might view NVDA as too large in AI semi.
Derp, you are a genius
Let me guess, you're short or bought puts? Yikes.
