NVIDIA beats Q1 estimates with 85% revenue growth, strong Q2 guidance amid AI-driven demand

NVIDIA reported Q1 revenue of $81.6B (+85% YoY) and adjusted EPS of $1.87 beating $1.70 estimate, driven by Data Center revenue at $75.2B (+92%). Q2 revenue guidance of $91B ±2% signals continued growth despite geopolitical risks from China market concession to Huawei. Shares declined ~1.77% post-earnings amid profit-taking despite strong fundamentals and bullish analyst sentiment.

Confidence note: Strong earnings beat, clear guidance, and robust analyst consensus support confidence; geopolitical and concentration risks remain key uncertainties.
