Heading into today, shares of the maker of graphics chips for gaming and artificial intelligence had lost 2.57% over the past month, outpacing the Computer and Technology sector's loss of 6.6% and lagging the S&P 500's loss of 0.63%.
The investment community will be paying close attention to the earnings performance of Nvidia in its upcoming release. The company's earnings per share (EPS) are projected to be $2.09, reflecting a 99.05% increase from the same quarter last year. Our most recent consensus estimate is calling for quarterly revenue of $91.71 billion, up 96.2% from the year-ago period.
For the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $9.09 per share and revenue of $387.84 billion, which would represent changes of +90.57% and +79.61%, respectively, from the prior year.
Investors should also take note of any recent adjustments to analyst estimates for Nvidia. These revisions typically reflect the latest short-term business trends, which can change frequently. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the business outlook.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-term stock moves. To take advantage of this, we've established the Zacks Rank, an exclusive model that considers these estimated changes and delivers an operational rating system.
