NVDA--
The company's Blackwell Data Center revenue grew by 17% sequentially, but there were no H20 sales to China-based customers in the second quarter. NVIDIA benefited from a $180 million release of previously reserved H20 inventory, from approximately $650 million in unrestricted H20 sales to a customer outside of China. GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins were 72.4% and 72.7%, respectively, while GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $1.08 and $1.05, respectively [1].
Despite some concerns about profit margins, investors seem unfazed, considering "good, not amazing" still counts as good enough. The stock has soared 1,000% since ChatGPT's launch, with forward earnings estimates rising 1,136%. NVIDIA's 9 consecutive quarters of revenue growth above 50% have driven the stock [1].
NVIDIA's outlook for the third quarter of fiscal 2026 is as follows: Revenue is expected to be $54.0 billion, plus or minus 2%. GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be 73.3% and 73.5%, respectively, plus or minus 50 basis points. The company continues to expect to exit the year with non-GAAP gross margins in the mid-70% range [1].
