Nvidia (NVDA) beat the Wall Street consensus for fiscal fourth-quarter 2026 results after the market close on Wednesday. NVDA stock rose more than 3% following the news.
Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.62 beat by $0.08, while revenue of $68.13 billion beat by $1.9 billion. Revenue in the quarter jumped 20% QoQ and 73% from a year earlier. Of that topline figure, Data Center segment revenue was $62.3 billion, up 22% from Q3 and 75% higher than a year ago.
