NVIDIA Reports Record Revenue for Third Quarter of Fiscal 2026

NVIDIA Corporation, a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI) and accelerated computing technologies, has announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, which ended on October 26, 2025. The company reported unprecedented revenue of $57.0 billion, representing a 22% increase from the previous quarter and a 62% rise compared to the same period last year.

Gross margins for the third quarter were reported at 73.4% under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and 73.6% when using non-GAAP measures. Earnings per diluted share for both GAAP and non-GAAP were $1.30.

Jensen Huang, the founder and Chief Executive Officer of NVIDIA, commented on the company's performance, stating, "Blackwell sales are off the charts, and cloud GPUs are sold out. Compute demand keeps accelerating and compounding across training and inference — each growing exponentially. We've entered the virtuous cycle of AI. The AI ecosystem is scaling fast — with more new foundation model makers, more AI startups, across more industries, and in more countries. AI is going everywhere, doing everything, all at once."

In the first nine months of fiscal 2026, NVIDIA returned $37.0 billion to its shareholders through share repurchases and cash dividends. At the end of the third quarter, the company had $62.2 billion remaining under its share repurchase programme.

The next quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share is scheduled for distribution on December 26, 2025, to all shareholders recorded by December 4, 2025.

Looking forward, NVIDIA's outlook for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 remains optimistic. Detailed commentary by Colette Kress, the company's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, is accessible on NVIDIA’s investor relations website.

A conference call is set to take place today at 2 p.m. Pacific Time (5 p.m. Eastern Time) where analysts and investors will discuss the financial results and future projections. A live webcast of this call will be available on NVIDIA's investor relations platform, and it will be recorded for later access.

NVIDIA often supplements its financial statements prepared in compliance with GAAP with additional non-GAAP measures. These include non-GAAP gross profit and margins, operating expenses, and free cash flow, which provide a clearer picture of the company's financial performance.

The company has highlighted that its non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies. Such measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial results, and NVIDIA encourages investors to consider them in conjunction with the company's GAAP financial statements.

NVIDIA, listed on NASDAQ under the ticker NVDA, continues to be at the forefront of AI advancements and accelerated computing solutions. However, the company has acknowledged that certain forward-looking statements regarding future performance and market conditions are subject to risks and uncertainties that may affect actual results, as detailed in their reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
