“Computing demand is growing exponentially — the agentic AI inflection point has arrived. Grace Blackwell with NVLink is the king of inference today — delivering an order-of-magnitude lower cost per token — and Vera Rubin will extend that leadership even further,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Enterprise adoption of agents is skyrocketing. Our customers are racing to invest in AI compute — the factories powering the AI industrial revolution and their future growth.”

During fiscal 2026, NVIDIA returned $41.1 billion to shareholders in the form of shares repurchased and cash dividends. As of the end of the fourth quarter, the company had $58.5 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorization. NVIDIA will pay its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share on April 1, 2026, to all shareholders of record on March 11, 2026.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, NVIDIA expects revenue to be $78.0 billion, plus or minus 2%, and not assuming any Data Center compute revenue from China in its outlook. GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be 74.9% and 75.0%, respectively, plus or minus 50 basis points, inclusive of a 0.1% impact from stock-based compensation expense. Operating expenses are expected to be approximately $7.7 billion, inclusive of $1.9 billion of stock-based compensation expense.
