    NVIDIA Q2 FY2027: $96.2B revenue; Data Center $89.0B; major GPU and memory commitments

    Question

    NVIDIA Q2 FY2027: $96.2B revenue; Data Center $89.0B; major GPU and memory commitments

    Direct answer

    NVIDIA reported $96.2B in Q2 revenue with Data Center at $89.0B, per Zacks and GlobeNewswire. The numbers indicate hyperscaler-driven AI demand concentrated into GPU and supporting memory procurement. Company disclosures include a 2 million GPU expansion with AWS and a doubling of supply commitments to $279B, primarily for memory procurement, per Motley Fool and GlobeNewswire. These commitments are explicit and imply multi-year pre-buying of components. Zacks notes gross margins were 75% in the quarter and management expects compression to 71-72% in Q4 fiscal 2028 as memory costs are absorbed; the company also guided Q3 revenue near $108B and raised FY28 growth targets, indicating continued strong demand but higher input cost pressure.
