NVIDIA
Infrastructure layer of the AI economy. FY2026 full-year revenue $215.9B (+65% YoY); Data Center $194B (+68%). Q4 FY2026 $68.1B (+73% YoY), Data Center $62B (+75%, +22% QoQ). Q1 FY2027 guidance $78B ±2% (7% above consensus). Blackwell architecture at scale; Rubin GPU announced GTC 2026. Sovereign AI demand up 300%+ per Jensen Huang. Data center business 13x since ChatGPT launch (FY2023). CUDA moat at 4M+ developers.
Scenarios
Blackwell GB300 and upcoming Rubin extend performance lead. Transition to inference-dominated workloads expands addressable market. Sovereign AI demand (300%+ YoY) adds a new revenue category.
Custom ASICs from Google, Amazon, Broadcom, and AMD capturing meaningful share with 5-year hyperscaler contracts. US-China export restriction escalation could remove material demand.
Key Factors to Watch
