NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported revenue for the second quarter ended July 31, 2022, of $6.70 billion, up 3% from a year ago and down 19% from the previous quarter. GAAP earnings per diluted share for the quarter were $0.26, down 72% from a year ago and down 59% from the previous quarter. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.51, down 51% from a year ago and down 63% from the previous quarter.

"We are navigating our supply chain transitions in a challenging macro environment and we will get through this," said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. "Accelerated computing and AI, the pioneering work of our company, are transforming industries. Automotive is becoming a tech industry and is on track to be our next billion-dollar business. Advances in AI are driving our Data Center business while accelerating breakthroughs in fields from drug discovery to climate science to robotics.



"I look forward to next month's GTC conference, where we will share new advances in RTX, as well as breakthroughs in AI and the metaverse, the next evolution of the internet. Join us," he said.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, NVIDIA returned to shareholders $3.44 billion in share repurchases and cash dividends, following a return of $2.10 billion in the first quarter. The company has $11.93 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorization through December 2023. NVIDIA plans to continue share repurchases this fiscal year.

NVIDIA will pay its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share on September 29, 2022, to all shareholders of record on September 8, 2022.

Outlook
NVIDIA's outlook for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 is as follows:
  • Revenue is expected to be $5.90 billion, plus or minus 2%. Gaming and Professional Visualization revenue are expected to decline sequentially, as OEMs and channel partners reduce inventory levels to align with current levels of demand and prepare for NVIDIA's new product generation. The company expects that decline to be partially offset by sequential growth in Data Center and Automotive.
  • GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be 62.4% and 65.0%, respectively, plus or minus 50 basis points.
  • GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $2.59 billion and $1.82 billion, respectively.
  • GAAP and non-GAAP other income and expense are expected to be an expense of approximately $10 million, excluding gains and losses from non-affiliated investments.
  • GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates are expected to be 9.5%, plus or minus 1%, excluding any discrete items.

So, achievement could be positive, but could be negative. It is still an achievement.

You see these number and some people still say NV did not support mining industry with whatever they've got selling those under the gaming banner. Well, I hope it is clear now.

So Nvidia still bluffing about not being able to evaluate crypto revenue, and still maintaining they have nothing to do with it...

With Ethereum switch to Proof of Stake in late September (allegedly), you think that "secret cryptomining section of Nvidia" is already hyping all the alternative GPU-mineable coins to all interested? I mean, most crypto addicts I know expect this bear market will turn to bull sooner or later - and they maintain it's only a reflection of how all money has lost value, even fiat.

They did evaluate unofficially.
Gaming = crypto.

Meanwhile AMD (although, I'm not sure it is the same quarter, cough... but then, this was published on Aug the 2nd, so must be the most recent as with NV):

I'd bet cryptobazinga busting for good is more likely, than that elusive "Ethereum switch".

So AMD is up 70% Y/Y and Nvidia is up 3% (earnings periods don’t exactly match up but close enough). Who’s gonna help Nvidia out and buy more Cryptocurrency I mean gaming cards?

The 3rd quarter will be the first after, don't know, 5-10-15 years, where AMD expects to have higher income than Nvidia.

The 2nd quarter was also a rarity with AMD having higher profit margin than both Intel and Nvidia, if I am not mistaken. I wonder if their was another quarter like this one.

Nvidia is expecting margin of 62-65% next quarter? How's Jensen gonna do it without crypto? Is he bluffing?

Why, did Nvidia dropped prices and I missed it?

They probably dropped to 45% profit margins because they gave a bunch of GPUs for peanuts to their partners, or directly funded them to help them stay financially healthy, not because they dropped prices. That's probably a one time bitter pill for them, if we assume that gaming cards will keep selling, even at a slower pace. They haven't dropped prices. With the exception of 3090 and 3090 Ti, that where selling with 100% profit margin anyway (just a guess), other cards keep selling higher than MSRP. So, yes, they will jump back to over 60% at no time. They might lose 4-5% as they predict, from 67% to 62% and that's it. Keep buying sheepfolks.

Let me write it again, because the tech press is misleading those few last weeks and unfortunately people had swallowed it..
Nvidia did NOT dropped prices. They sell OVER MSRP. So, their profit margin is still INTACT.
