    Nvidia Delivers 106% Revenue Growth to $96.2B as Trailing Multiple Compresses

    Question

    Nvidia Delivers 106% Revenue Growth to $96.2B as Trailing Multiple Compresses

    Direct answer

    Nvidia's Q2 financial results showed revenue reaching $96.2 billion, up 106% year-over-year, alongside adjusted EPS of $2.22 and net income of $29.2 billion. The top line expanded by nearly $50 billion compared to earlier periods. Despite doubling profitability, Nvidia's price-to-earnings multiple retreated below 27x, marking its lowest valuation multiple since early 2019 as market participants digest massive enterprise hardware deployment trajectories. — bullish pressure on SMH.
