Question
Nvidia doubles supply commitments to $279B as Q2 revenue hits $96.2B
Direct answer
Nvidia capped the mega-cap reporting cycle by delivering $96.2 billion in revenue, led by an $89.0 billion Data Center segment. The company announced an agreement with AWS for 2 million additional GPUs alongside accelerated delivery timelines for its Vera Rubin architecture. To satisfy forward hyperscaler orders, Nvidia doubled long-term supply obligations to $279 billion, focused on high-bandwidth memory. Management flagged that absorbing these component cost increases will compress gross margins from 75% to 71-72% in late fiscal 2028 before normalizing. — bullish pressure on AMZN.
