<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Tech juggernaut Nvidia continued its winning streak on Wednesday, posting record quarterly revenue of $39.3 billion, up 12% from last quarter and 78% a year ago, compared to Wall Street\u2019s projection of $38.3 billion. Sales for the year came in at $130.5 billion, up 114% from the previous year.<\/p>\n<p>The company forecast revenue for next quarter to hit $43 billion, slightly above the Street\u2019s projections. Gross margins dipped for a second consecutive quarter, however, coming in at 73.5%, matching the guidance CFO Colette Kress offered last quarter. She said margins are expected to temporarily drop into the low 70s amid the Blackwell rollout.<\/p>\n<p>Another amazing quarter from the company, said Will Rhind, founder and CEO of GraniteShares, who manages leveraged ETFs that give investors double the exposure to long or short positions on the stock. The only slight thing that I guess you could probably nitpick on is margins.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the company\u2019s data center business accounts for most of its sales as customers, including nearly all of Big Tech, race to amass as much compute power as possible. The data center division\u2019s $35.6 billion in revenue increased 93% from the same quarter last year and beat the Street\u2019s expected number of $34.2 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Nvidia stock rose 171% in 2024, accounting for more than a fifth of the S&P 500\u2019s overall gain. The company\u2019s earnings are viewed as a reckoning for the whole Gen AI trade, making the chip behemoth\u2019s financial results a momentous occasion for the entire equities landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Rhind noted this latest batch of earnings comes as the market deals with increased uncertainty about issues such as tariffs and inflation. It really feels like the emphasis on this particular earnings call is more important than perhaps any of the others so far, he said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/lifeboat.com\/blog\/2025\/02\/nvidia-smashes-expectations-posts-record-130-5-billion-annual-revenue\">Continue reading \u201cNVIDIA Smashes Expectations, Posts Record 0.5 Billion Annual Revenue\u201d | ><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tech juggernaut Nvidia continued its winning streak on Wednesday, posting record quarterly revenue of $39.3 billion, up 12% from last quarter and 78% a year ago, compared to Wall Street\u2019s projection of $38.3 billion.
