Nvidia Earnings Preview: Q2 Revenue Expected to Nearly Double to $92.17 Billion, Market Focus on AI Chip Demand and Supply Chain Pressures

Odaily News Nvidia will release its fiscal 2026 second-quarter earnings after the U.S. market close. According to analyst estimates compiled by LSEG, the company's quarterly earnings per share are expected to be $2.10, with revenue projected to reach $92.17 billion.

The market expects Nvidia's revenue to nearly double from $46.7 billion in the same period last year, continuing the rapid growth driven by the wave of artificial intelligence infrastructure investment. As a core supplier of AI computing power, Nvidia's GPUs are widely used to train and run advanced AI models, and the company is also involved in advancing the construction of next-generation AI data centers through financing support and other means.

However, after nearly three years of significant gains, investor expectations for Nvidia have become more cautious. As of Tuesday's close, Nvidia has risen approximately 14% year-to-date, slightly outperforming the Nasdaq index. Market concerns include competitive pressure from rivals such as AMD and Google, as well as rising costs stemming from the global memory chip shortage.

Currently, Nvidia is in a new product cycle, with its latest Vera Rubin AI system already being delivered to customers including Microsoft and OpenAI. Investors will focus on sales progress and supply conditions for the Rubin and Blackwell chip families, as well as the company's outlook for future AI computing power demand.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has previously stated that he expects the current product cycle based on the Blackwell and Vera Rubin architectures to generate cumulative sales of $1 trillion by 2027. The company will hold its earnings conference call at 5:00 PM ET. (CNBC)
