Nvidia’s Latest Report Boosts the Company’s Share Price

Nvidia reported strong financial results for the first quarter of 2026 for the period ended April 27, 2025, which led to a 4.8% increase in its shares in after-hours trading.

The chipmaker reported revenue of $44.1 billion, up 69% year-on-year, and net income of $18.7 billion, up 26% from last year.

The data center division led the way with $39.1 billion, or 88% of total revenue. Gross margin was 61%, but would have reached 71.3% had it not been for $4.5 billion in expenses related to restrictions on exports of H20 products to China. This also reduced earnings per share from the forecast $0.96 to $0.81.

CEO Jensen Huang said global demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure is accelerating, with AI token generation increasing tenfold in a year. He compared AI computing to vital infrastructure comparable to electricity or the internet.

The news had little effect on AI tokens. The sector’s market capitalization rose only 0.6%, according to CoinGecko. NEAR and FET rose more than 5%, while GRASS fell 5.7%.

The cautious reaction follows a broader cooling off after Nvidia’s key announcement at GTC earlier this year.
