NVIDIA Q1 FY2027: $82B Revenue, 85% YoY Growth, Vera CPU Launch

NVIDIA's Q1 FY2027 results reinforce the AI infrastructure supercycle thesis, with revenue of $81.6B beating consensus by 4.1% and EPS of $1.87 beating by 6.3%. Data-center revenue accelerated to 92% YoY growth, up from 75% in the prior quarter. The launch of the Vera CPU platform opens an estimated $200B TAM beyond GPUs, and a new reporting segmentation (Hyperscale vs. ACIE) provides investors with clearer workload visibility. Despite the beat, the stock declined 1.97% on the report with 4.95% subsequent drift, suggesting expectations were elevated. Q2 guidance of $91B implies continued sequential growth. Capital returns were boosted with an $80B share-repurchase authorization and a dividend increase to $0.20/share. At $196.51, the stock trades well below the analyst consensus target of $319.48, reflecting both the recent pullback and the wide dispersion in targets ($218 to $500).

What changed

Revenue stepped up from $68B in Q4 FY2026 to $82B in Q1 FY2027, with data-center growth accelerating from 75% to 92% YoY. NVIDIA introduced a new Hyperscale vs. ACIE reporting segmentation. The Vera CPU family was launched, targeting a $200B TAM. A new $80B share-repurchase authorization was announced alongside a dividend increase to $0.20/share, with $20B already returned in Q1. VeraRubin production was moved to Q3 2026 (previously H2 FY2026). Q2 guidance of $91B implies further sequential acceleration. China data-center revenue remains excluded from the outlook.

Guidance delta

Guidance sentiment was maintained. Q2 FY2027 revenue was guided to $91B, up from $82B reported in Q1. The prior quarter had set Q1 guidance at approximately $78B, which was exceeded by $4B. Capex outlook remains increasing. Management reaffirmed its target of $1 trillion in cumulative Blackwell/Rubin revenue from 2025 through 2027. China revenue remains excluded from the forward outlook due to export-license uncertainty.

  • Vera CPU launch opens an estimated $200B TAM beyond GPUs.
  • $80B buyback authorization and dividend increase to $0.20/share signal strong capital returns.

Management priorities

  • Begin VeraRubin production shipments in Q3 2026 with ramp through Q4.
  • Target $1 trillion in cumulative Blackwell/Rubin revenue from 2025 through 2027.
  • Expand partnerships across hyperscalers, AI-native clouds, and enterprise customers.

Methodology

Reported and consensus figures come from FN2's earnings event records. Market reaction and volume are calculated from daily adjusted bars around the event; abnormal move subtracts the SPY move over the same window.

Analyst target low, average, and high values are derived at request time from each named analyst's latest persisted FMP target. The current-price marker comes from FN2's persisted market snapshot. They are sell-side estimates, not an FN2 valuation or recommendation.

Transcript intelligence is a structured synthesis of the current and prior earnings-call analyses. Missing values stay missing and are never estimated.
