About the company

NVIDIA Corporation designs graphics processing units (GPUs), networking products, systems and software for accelerated computing. It reports two segments. Compute & Networking includes data-center GPUs and AI computing platforms, InfiniBand and Ethernet networking, and automotive and robotics platforms. Graphics includes GeForce GPUs for gaming and PCs and professional visualization products. Its CUDA software platform and libraries are central to developer adoption. NVIDIA is fabless: it outsources wafer fabrication, packaging and system assembly to partners such as TSMC. The data center market is now by far its largest source of revenue, driven by demand for AI training and inference.

Business model and industry role

Data-center compute

GPU accelerators (Hopper, Blackwell generations) sold as chips, boards and full rack-scale systems; a GPU is a processor built to run many calculations in parallel, which suits AI workloads.

Networking

InfiniBand and Ethernet switches, network adapters and NVLink interconnects that let thousands of GPUs work as one machine.

Software

CUDA, the programming platform that runs on all NVIDIA GPUs, plus AI libraries, frameworks and enterprise software.

Gaming and professional graphics

GeForce GPUs for PCs and RTX workstation GPUs for design and visualisation.

Automotive

DRIVE computing platforms and software for driver assistance and autonomous driving.

Who buys it

Direct customers are mainly OEMs, ODMs, system integrators and distributors; the end users are cloud providers, AI companies, enterprises and governments 1. NVIDIA reports revenue by the headquarters location of its direct customers, so the geographic split does not show where chips are finally deployed 1.

How it earns revenue

Mostly from hardware sales: chips, boards and complete systems with networking. Since fiscal 2027 NVIDIA groups Data Center revenue into Hyperscale and "AI Clouds, Industrial & Enterprise", and reports Edge Computing separately 3.

What it controls and outsources

NVIDIA controls architecture, chip design, system design and software. Wafer fabrication (TSMC, Samsung), memory (SK hynix, Micron, Samsung), CoWoS advanced packaging and system assembly (Hon Hai, Wistron and others) are supplied by partners 1.

What drives profitabilityIncludes Silicon Analytica view

Gross margin was 71.1% in fiscal 2026 and 75.0% in Q2 fiscal 2027 23. Because manufacturing is outsourced, capital spending is small relative to revenue (see the history table). In our view, margins depend mainly on the mix of new-generation systems and on supply costs for memory and advanced packaging rather than on factory utilisation.

Competitive position, drivers and risks

Competitive position

NVIDIA names competitors including AMD, Broadcom, Intel, Marvell, Huawei, Cisco and Arista, as well as internal chip teams at large cloud companies 1. Silicon Analytica view: AMD GPUs and custom cloud accelerators are the most direct alternatives in AI compute.

Evidence

Reported: Data Center revenue grew from US$115.2bn to US$193.7bn in fiscal 2026 and networking revenue more than doubled 1. NVIDIA describes CUDA as running on all its GPUs, which gives developers one software target across generations 1.

Growth drivers and conditions

Company view: demand for AI training and inference ("agentic AI") and rack-scale Blackwell and Vera Rubin systems 2. Conditions: customers must keep funding data-center build-outs, and TSMC packaging, high-bandwidth memory and power availability must keep pace.

Cyclicality and downside risks

Reported: US export controls mean NVIDIA says it cannot currently deliver a competitive data-center product for China that receives approval 1. Supply depends on a few manufacturers concentrated in Taiwan and Korea 1. Our view: spending by a small group of hyperscalers creates cyclical risk if their returns on AI investment disappoint; custom accelerators are the main structural threat to pricing.

What to watch next

  1. Data Center revenue split between Hyperscale and AI Clouds, Industrial & Enterprise
  2. Gross margin as Vera Rubin systems ramp
  3. Networking revenue growth versus compute
  4. Any change in China export licensing
  5. Inventory and supply commitments relative to revenue

Suggested peers: AMD, Broadcom, Intel, Qualcomm

AMD is the closest product comparison. Broadcom combines custom AI chips with a large software business, so its consolidated margins are not a like-for-like chip comparison. Intel manufactures its own chips, which changes capital intensity. Financials compares latest reported periods and labels mismatched period ends.
