NVIDIA posts strong 69% YoY revenue growth despite $4.5B China export restriction charge, signaling continued AI infrastructure demand.

NVIDIA delivered $44.1 billion in Q1 FY26 revenue, growing 12% sequentially and 69% year-over-year. The Data Center segment remains the primary growth engine, contributing $39.1 billion (89% of total revenue) and growing 73% YoY. Despite these impressive figures, NVIDIA faced a significant headwind with the $4.5 billion charge related to H20 product export restrictions to China announced on April 9, 2025.

This geopolitical challenge severely impacted gross margins, which fell to 61.0% (non-GAAP), a 17.9% drop year-over-year. Excluding the China-related charge, non-GAAP gross margin would have been 71.3%, still below the 78.9% reported a year ago. Despite these challenges, NVIDIA still achieved $19.9 billion in non-GAAP net income, up 31% YoY.

The outlook reveals the ongoing China impact with an expected $8.0 billion revenue loss in Q2 due to export control limitations. Nevertheless, NVIDIA projects Q2 revenue of $45.0 billion (±2%), representing modest sequential growth. Gross margins are expected to recover to 72.0% (non-GAAP), with management targeting mid-70s by year-end.

Beyond the financials, NVIDIA is strategically responding to geopolitical challenges by building factories in the U.S. and forming global partnerships to diversify its manufacturing footprint. The company's introduction of the next-generation Blackwell platform and expansion into new markets (including record Gaming revenue of $3.8 billion, up 42% YoY) demonstrate strong execution despite regulatory headwinds.

The 33% YoY growth in non-GAAP EPS to $0.81 ($0.96 excluding the H20 charge) indicates NVIDIA's underlying operational strength continues despite the China challenge. The company's strategic investments in U.S. manufacturing capacity, global AI infrastructure partnerships, and next-generation products position it well to navigate geopolitical complications while capitalizing on robust AI demand.

NVIDIA maintains robust AI computing growth trajectory despite China export controls, pivoting strategically with Blackwell architecture and global manufacturing expansion.

NVIDIA's Q1 results reveal a company executing well on AI infrastructure demand while simultaneously navigating significant geopolitical complications. The Blackwell architecture launch represents a critical technological transition, with CEO Jensen Huang describing the NVL72 AI supercomputer as a "thinking machine designed for reasoning" - signaling NVIDIA's push beyond traditional AI training into inference and reasoning capabilities.

The 10x surge in AI inference token generation over just one year validates this strategic direction. NVIDIA is positioning itself at the center of what Huang frames as "essential infrastructure — just like electricity and the internet," with countries worldwide recognizing AI's strategic importance.

The China export restriction challenge is revealing NVIDIA's adaptability. Rather than simply absorbing the blow, the company is restructuring its global manufacturing strategy, announcing plans to build factories in the U.S. and establishing AI infrastructure partnerships across Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Taiwan. This geographic diversification protects against future geopolitical disruptions while ensuring access to key markets.

Beyond core AI computing, NVIDIA is executing a comprehensive ecosystem strategy. The gaming division's record $3.8 billion quarter (42% YoY growth) shows the company isn't neglecting its original market. The Nintendo Switch 2 partnership brings NVIDIA technology to a massive consumer platform, while the RTX Remix modding platform's 2 million user milestone demonstrates community engagement.

The Automotive segment's 72% YoY growth to $567 million signals NVIDIA's expanding role in another AI-intensive sector. Partnerships with GM on next-generation vehicles and factories showcase how NVIDIA's technology is becoming embedded across multiple industries. Similarly, the Isaac GR00T foundation models for humanoid robots demonstrate the company's vision extends far beyond traditional computing markets.

The technical depth of NVIDIA's announcements - from Spectrum-X networking to NVLink Fusion and silicon photonics - indicates the company is building an integrated technology stack that creates significant competitive moats. NVIDIA isn't just selling chips; it's creating comprehensive AI infrastructure platforms that are increasingly difficult for competitors to replicate.

Revenue of $44.1 billion, up 12% from Q4 and up 69% from a year ago
Data Center revenue of $39.1 billion, up 10% from Q4 and up 73% from a year ago

SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported revenue for the first quarter ended April 27, 2025, of $44.1 billion, up 12% from the previous quarter and up 69% from a year ago.

On April 9, 2025, NVIDIA was informed by the U.S. government that a license is required for exports of its H20 products into the China market. As a result of these new requirements, NVIDIA incurred a $4.5 billion charge in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 associated with H20 excess inventory and purchase obligations as the demand for H20 diminished. Sales of H20 products were $4.6 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 prior to the new export licensing requirements. NVIDIA was unable to ship an additional $2.5 billion of H20 revenue in the first quarter.

For the quarter, GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins were 60.5% and 61.0%, respectively. Excluding the $4.5 billion charge, first quarter non-GAAP gross margin would have been 71.3%.

For the quarter, GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.76 and $0.81, respectively. Excluding the $4.5 billion charge and related tax impact, first quarter non-GAAP diluted earnings per share would have been $0.96.

“Our breakthrough Blackwell NVL72 AI supercomputer — a ‘thinking machine’ designed for reasoning— is now in full-scale production across system makers and cloud service providers,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Global demand for NVIDIA’s AI infrastructure is incredibly strong. AI inference token generation has surged tenfold in just one year, and as AI agents become mainstream, the demand for AI computing will accelerate. Countries around the world are recognizing AI as essential infrastructure — just like electricity and the internet — and NVIDIA stands at the center of this profound transformation.”

NVIDIA will pay its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on July 3, 2025, to all shareholders of record on June 11, 2025.

Conference Call and Webcast Information
NVIDIA will conduct a conference call with analysts and investors to discuss its first quarter fiscal 2026 financial results and current financial prospects today at 2 p.m. Pacific time (5 p.m. Eastern time). A live webcast (listen-only mode) of the conference call will be accessible at NVIDIA’s investor relations website, https://investor.nvidia.com. The webcast will be recorded and available for replay until NVIDIA’s conference call to discuss its financial results for its second quarter of fiscal 2026.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement NVIDIA’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income, or earnings, per diluted share, and free cash flow. For NVIDIA’s investors to be better able to compare its current results with those of previous periods, the company has shown a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related and other costs, other, gains/losses from non-marketable and publicly-held equity securities, net, interest expense related to amortization of debt discount, H20 excess inventory and purchase obligation charges, and the associated tax impact of these items where applicable. The inclusion of H20 excess inventory and purchase obligation charges in the reconciliations to adjust the related GAAP financial measures was a result of the U.S. government informing NVIDIA on April 9, 2025 that it requires a license for export to China of H20 products. H20 products were designed primarily for the China market. Free cash flow is calculated as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less both purchases related to property and equipment and intangible assets and principal payments on property and equipment and intangible assets. NVIDIA believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user’s overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance. The presentation of the company’s non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the company’s non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
