🚀 Nvidia’s Q4 2025 Earnings: The AI Juggernaut Surges Again
Nvidia earnings for Q4 2025 have sent shockwaves through both Wall Street and the world of automated trading. With revenue smashing expectations at $39.3 billion (up 78% YoY) and Data Center sales soaring thanks to insatiable AI demand, NVDA’s performance is rewriting the playbook for traders, investors, and copy trading platforms alike.
📊 Key Financial Highlights
Metric | Q4 FY25 Actual | Consensus Estimate | YoY Growth |
|---|---|---|---|
Revenue | $39.3B | $38.1–$38.3B | +78% |
Data Center Revenue | $35.6B | $34.2B | +93% |
Net Income (non-GAAP) | $74.3B | ~$19.7B (prior yr) | +130% QoQ |
Gross Margin | 73.5% | ~73.5% | -3.2 pts |
EPS (non-GAAP) | $2.99 | — | — |
Guidance (Q1 FY26) | $43B | ~$42B | — |
Data Center revenue was the star, driven by Blackwell GPU sales and hyperscaler AI demand.
Gaming revenue dipped to $2.5B, but Automotive surged +103% YoY.
Gross margin softened slightly as Nvidia ramped up Blackwell production.
🌐 Why Did This Happen? The AI Gold Rush
Nvidia’s dominance in AI hardware—especially with the Blackwell GPU—has made it the backbone of global data centers. CEO Jensen Huang cited “incredible” demand and the fastest product ramp in company history. Strategic partnerships (like Toyota’s adoption of NVIDIA DRIVE and the $500B Stargate AI initiative) further fueled growth. Even as US-China export restrictions loom, global AI investment continues to dwarf regional risks.
💹 Market Impact: NVDA Stock & Volatility
NVDA shares surged in after-hours trading, with implied volatility spiking from 38% to 45%.
Options volume doubled, especially in $160–$170 call strikes.
Broader semiconductor stocks (AMD, TSM) rallied in sympathy, pushing the Nasdaq up 2.1%.
