Nvidia, an industry leader in artificial intelligence chips used by companies like OpenAI and a bellwether for tech stocks, reported earnings after market close on Wednesday.
The company reported revenue of $44.06 billion for the quarter ending April 27, 2025, exceeding expectations of $43.31 billion, according to LSEG consensus estimates. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.96, beating estimates of $0.93.
Investors have been closely watching the company’s performance amid escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China. In April, the U.S. tightened rules on chip exports to China, followed by an additional 10% tariff on most goods from China in May — a move China matched with its own 10% tariff on some U.S. goods.
The move follows a broader trend of escalating trade measures aimed at limiting China’s access to advanced American technology. Nvidia’s stock initially dropped in April, but has since rebounded and is trading above where it was a year ago, as of market close on Wednesday.
Despite the ongoing trade war, Nvidia’s stock has surged around 1,490% over the past five years, pushing its market capitalization above $3 trillion and making it one of the most valuable U.S. companies. As a leader in the AI space, Nvidia remains one of the market’s most actively traded stocks.
