Nvidia (NVDA) Stock and Q3 Earnings Report
For the past three months, Nvidia reported revenue of $4.73 billion against $4.41 billion expected by analysts. The company reported adjusted earnings per share of $2.91 against analysts’ expectations of $2.57 per share, according to Refinitiv. The company indicated that it set a new revenue record, which is up 57% in comparison to the same period in the prior year.
Notably, Nvidia noted that the increase in revenue was attributed to its computer and networking segment that shot 146% from last year’s $1.94 billion. In addition, the increase in revenue was bolstered by its graphics faction that experienced a 25% spike from last year to $2.79 billion.
Revenue collected from the gaming segment shot by 37% to $2.27 billion in the past three months. In its Q3 earnings report, Nvidia noted that its data center line reported $1.9 billion in sales. This reciprocated to a spike of 162% from last year’s, whereby it was attributed to higher demand in Ampere graphics chips.
The company also attributed the spike in revenue to its purchase of Mellanox, which closed earlier this year that contributed 13% to total company revenue and about a third of data center revenue.
However, the company indicated that it expects its data center revenue to drop in the current quarter due to market uncertainty. Notably, the company pointed out that Chinese customers are no longer buying Mellanox networking products.
