Part 2/6:
Nvidia's revenue for the quarter reached $39.3 billion, surpassing the anticipated $38.25 billion. Breaking this down further, the data center revenue stood at $35.6 billion, reflecting a positive outcome above analyst expectations. However, gaming revenue did not fare as well, coming in at $2.5 billion, which fell short of the forecasted figures.
Looking ahead, Nvidia's guidance for the first quarter suggests an expected revenue range of $43 billion (with a variance of +/- 2%), which is encouraging compared to the $42.3 billion that was originally estimated. This positive outlook speaks to Nvidia's strong market demand, particularly for their newly ramped-up Blackwell AI production.
