For Q2, Nvidia announced revenue of $46.7 billion—a 6% increase over the previous quarter and 56% higher than the same period last year. Net income stood at $26.4 billion, with reported earnings per share of $1.08 based on GAAP accounting, and $1.05 per share on a non-GAAP basis. The tech company also reported a strong profit margin of about 72.4%.

Following the release of these results, Nvidia shares declined around 3.3% during after-hours trading. At the time of the announcement, the company’s market capitalization was over $4.4 trillion, making it the world’s most valuable publicly listed firm according to the company’s report. Nvidia is recognized for producing advanced computing and AI chips, with key significance to U.S. technology strategy.

In its latest report, Nvidia addressed its business operations in China. The company confirmed that there were no sales of its H20 processor to China-based customers during the second quarter. The H20 chip is a version of Nvidia’s popular H100 processor, modified to comply with U.S. export controls on high-performance semiconductors used for Artificial Intelligence. As outlined by Nvidia, export restrictions and license requirements halted all H20 deliveries to China earlier in the year.

U.S. government actions, initiated under President Donald Trump’s administration, first increased export barriers, imposing license fees that totaled about $5.5 billion for shipments to China. In August, this stance was reversed, allowing H20 chip sales to resume on the condition that Nvidia provides the U.S. government with 15% of revenue from chips sold into China.
