Simultaneously, our latest consensus estimate expects the revenue to be $109.02 billion, showing a 91.24% escalation compared to the year-ago quarter.
For the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $9.25 per share and revenue of $406.05 billion, which would represent changes of +93.92% and +88.04%, respectively, from the prior year.
Investors should also take note of any recent adjustments to analyst estimates for Nvidia. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. Consequently, upward revisions in estimates express analysts' positivity towards the business operations and its ability to generate profits.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-term stock moves. We developed the Zacks Rank to capitalize on this phenomenon. Our system takes these estimate changes into account and delivers a clear, actionable rating model.
The Zacks Rank system, which varies between #1 (Strong Buy) and #5 (Strong Sell), carries an impressive track record of exceeding expectations, confirmed by external audits, with stocks at #1 delivering an average annual return of +25% since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has shifted 4.73% upward. Right now, Nvidia possesses a Zacks Rank of #1 (Strong Buy).
Valuation is also important, so investors should note that Nvidia has a Forward P/E ratio of 24.34 right now. This represents a discount compared to its industry average Forward P/E of 38.49.
