Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of Nvidia, had this to say about the Q4 NVDA stock earnings report:
“Adoption of Nvidia accelerated computing drove excellent results, with record data center revenue. Our initiatives are achieving great success.”
The Nvidia earnings report also included an update of its fiscal Q1 2021 outlook. It is lowering its revenue estimates by $100 million to a new range of $3.00 billion, plus or minus 2%. The reason for this change is possible headwinds due to the coronavirus from China. Wall Street’s estimate is for revenue of $2.85 billion during the period.
NVDA stock closed the day slightly down, but is currently up more than 6% after market close.
