    Question

    Nvidia Posts Q2 Revenue of $96.2B as Multiple Compresses Below 27x

    Direct answer

    Nvidia reported Q2 fiscal 2027 revenue of $96.2 billion, up 106% from the prior year, driven by broad data center accelerator deployments. Adjusted earnings per share reached $2.22 on $29.2 billion of adjusted net income, marking a 120% increase over the comparable period. Despite the expansion in operating profit, the equity multiple contracted to levels below 27x earnings. Trading desk attention is focused on whether full-stack data center offerings, including networking and power distribution architecture, can maintain gross margin levels across subsequent quarters.
