Quarterly rate raised from $0.01 to $0.25 in 2026. Source: Nasdaq dividend history.

BACKGROUND:

NVIDIA, incorporated in 1993, designs graphics processors (GPUs), networking and software; it owns no fabs, and its 10-K names TSMC as a principal foundry. The Compute & Networking segment sells the accelerators, networking and systems on which most AI data centers are built; Graphics covers gaming and professional GPUs. Revenue rose from $27.0 billion in fiscal 2023 (the year to January 2023) to $215.9 billion in fiscal 2026, and net income from $4.4 billion to $120.1 billion.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS:

For the three months ended 7/26/26 (second quarter of fiscal 2027) revenue rose 106% to $96.2 billion, of which Data Center was $89.0 billion. Management guides third-quarter revenue to $108.0 billion and has given a preliminary expectation of roughly 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028. Gross margins are about 75%, cash conversion is above 80%, the balance sheet holds net cash and the share count is shrinking. In 2026 the quarterly dividend was raised from $0.01 to $0.25.

PROSPECTS:

At $228.38 the shares sell at 24.5× consensus EPS for fiscal 2027 (the year to January 2027) and 14.6× fiscal 2028; consensus has EPS rising 68% in fiscal 2028 to about $15.68. NVIDIA's own history includes a 56% fall in EPS in fiscal 2023. In our view this is the best business in the AI supply chain at a fair price, not a margin of safety: our base case returns about 11% a year, close to our 10% hurdle, and the risk is that the spending cycle turns before fiscal 2028 earnings arrive.
