For three years, NVIDIA's earnings have served as a benchmark for the entire AI industry. Recently, the AI chip leader released its Q2 financial results. As a $5.26 trillion company, representing 7.6% of the S&P 500, everyone is watching NVIDIA to determine if the AI boom remains robust. Analysts anticipate NVIDIA Q2 EPS of $2.09 and $92.18 billion in revenue, up approximately 98% year-over-year.
The guidance presents a revenue forecast of $91 billion and EPS of $2.04, with gross margins rising to 75% from 72.7%. According to David Lefkowitz of UBS, "we joke internally that we're all NVIDIA analysts now." This is because NVIDIA is at the heart of AI infrastructure, powering data centers built by Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta.
These four companies alone will spend over $700 billion this year on AI data centers. NVIDIA's share of S&P 500 earnings has surged, from 0.3% in 2019 to an estimated 7.2% this year, not counting one-time gains from other big tech firms. The report will reveal where AI spending is headed and whether demand for infrastructure remains strong.
