NVIDIA, the US-based chipmaker, has announced a record $39.3 billion in revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025.
This represents a 78% increase year-over-year, up from $22.1 billion in Q4 of FY24. The company also saw a 12% rise compared to the previous quarter. For the entire fiscal year 2025, NVIDIA’s revenue reached $130.5 billion, marking a 114% increase from the prior year.
The growth is primarily fueled by soaring demand for NVIDIA’s specialized Blackwell chips, which power generative AI and other advanced AI applications.
“Demand for Blackwell is extraordinary. As reasoning AI introduces new scaling laws, the need for increased compute power for training makes models smarter, and additional compute for long-term thinking enhances responses,” said Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA.
“We have significantly ramped up the large-scale production of Blackwell AI supercomputers, achieving billions in sales during the first quarter. AI is progressing at an unprecedented pace, with agentic AI and physical AI paving the way for the next wave of innovation that will transform major industries,” he added.
For the fourth quarter, NVIDIA reported GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.89, marking a 14% increase from the previous quarter and an impressive 82% rise compared to the same period last year.
The company’s net income for the quarter hit $22.09 billion, a notable jump from $12.28 billion a year ago. However, total operating expenses also saw a sharp increase, reaching $4.6 billion in Q4 of FY25, up from $3.1 billion during the same quarter last year.
Looking ahead to the first quarter of fiscal 2026, NVIDIA projects revenue of approximately $43.0 billion, with a margin of plus or minus 2%.
Based in Santa Clara, California, NVIDIA’s GPUs continue to play a crucial role in powering large language models (LLMs) and generative AI applications.
In the quarter under review, the company’s data center revenue soared to $35.6 billion, reflecting a 16% increase from Q3 and a remarkable 93% rise year-over-year. For the full year, revenue jumped by 142% to reach $115.2 billion.
NVIDIA has been announced as a key technology partner for the $500 billion Stargate Project, further solidifying its leadership in the AI sector and high-performance computing.
However, the company’s gaming revenue fell to $2.5 billion, marking a 22% decrease from the previous quarter and an 11% decline compared to last year.
In a statement, NVIDIA highlighted that more than 75% of the systems on the Top 500 list of the world’s most powerful supercomputers are now powered by its technologies.
To enhance its presence in healthcare and life sciences, NVIDIA has launched several partnerships with industry leaders, including IQVIA, Illumina, Mayo Clinic, and Arc Institute.
These collaborations aim to drive advancements in genomics, drug discovery, and healthcare innovation. Additionally, the company is expanding its global reach by opening its first research and development center in Vietnam.
