Nvidia Q1 FY2027 Revenue Jumps 85% to Record $81.6 Billion, Unveils $80 Billion Buyback and 25x Dividend Hike as Q2 Forecast Hits $91 Billion

Nvidia reported Q1 FY2027 revenue of $81.6 billion, up 85% year-over-year and beating the $78.86 billion consensus. Data Center revenue hit a record $75.2 billion — 92% of total company revenue — with compute up 77% to $60.4 billion and networking surging 199% to $14.8 billion. Adjusted earnings per share more than doubled to $1.87 from $0.78 a year earlier.

The board approved an additional $80 billion to the share repurchase authorization with no expiration, and raised the quarterly dividend 25-fold from $0.01 to $0.25 per share. Nvidia guided Q2 FY2027 revenue to roughly $91 billion (plus or minus 2%), well above the $86.84 billion Wall Street consensus.

CEO Jensen Huang called the AI factory rollout "the largest infrastructure expansion in human history" and said he expects Nvidia to remain "supply-constrained through the entire life of Vera Rubin." The reported figures exclude China shipments, leaving potential upside if US export restrictions ease.
