Nvidia Sales Jump 56%, a Sign the A.I. Boom Isn’t Slowing Down
Nvidia, the artificial intelligence chipmaker, was crowned the world’s first $4 trillion public company last month and has become perhaps the most important factor determining the direction of the stock market.
On Wednesday, the Silicon Valley company reported results that showed that spending on A.I. infrastructure remains robust, easing the anxieties of Wall Street and investors around the world.
Concerns over whether tech companies would continue shelling out billions to build A.I. data centers — spending that has helped prop up the economy — had mounted in recent months. But Nvidia’s sales rose 56 percent to $46.74 billion in the three months that ended in July, just topping Wall Street’s expectations. Profit increased more than 59 percent to $26.42 billion.
Revenue in the current quarter is projected to rise 54 percent from a year ago to $54 billion, as tech companies pour money into data centers. The forecast was in line with Wall Street’s prediction for $53.9 billion, but the company said its estimates did not include any sales for China, which would lift its revenue higher.
“The last year, A.I. has made tremendous progress,” Jensen Huang, Nvidia’s chief executive, said during a call with analysts. He said the company’s chips would benefit as spending on A.I. infrastructure increased to $3 trillion to $4 trillion by the end of the decade.
Shares of Nvidia fell more than 2 percent in after-hours trading. The decline, even when the company now posts quarterly profits bigger than tech peers like Apple and Meta, spoke to how lofty the expectations are. The company’s board approved a plan to repurchase $60 billion of its stock, signaling its confidence in its prospects.
In recent months, demand for Nvidia’s newest chip, the Blackwell, has been especially scrutinized. Sales of the product, released late last year, have accelerated, with the company distributing about 72,000 Blackwell chips a week for an estimated price of $30,000 each.
The chip has contributed to increased spending on data centers by Meta, Google and other cloud computing companies. In July, Meta said it would spend $7 billion more on data centers than planned this year, and Google said it would spend an additional $10 billion.
In April, the Trump administration blocked Nvidia from selling its H20 chip, which was made specifically for Chinese companies, over concerns the chips could be used to help China’s A.I. industry and military. After Mr. Huang lobbied to reverse that decision, President Trump agreed in August to allow the sales.
