Nvidia stock falls on light guidance, CFO says company will slow hiring (CNBC)

The stock dropped in extended trading after the chipmaker gave a light forecast for the current quarter.

Earlier this month, Nvidia announced that it had reached a settlement with the SEC over disclosures in 2017 about how cryptocurrency mining drove the company's growth. Nvidia said that the growth in gaming was driven by graphics cards for laptops and chips for game consoles. Nvidia said it expected gaming revenue to decline sequentially "in the teens" in the current quarter. The company's results in its smaller lines of business were mixed. But Nvidia continues to increase its revenues strongly and is still seeing robust demand for its graphics processors, which are are widely used for advanced gaming and artificial intelligence in the cloud. Nvidia said revenue for the current quarter would be about $8.1 billion, under analyst expectations of $8.54 billion.

Overall Data Center growth was driven by adoption of Nvidia's A100 GPU (graphics processing unit). Networking products are still supply constrained, but management sees this improving throughout the rest of the year Gaming revenue jumped 31% year over year to $3.62 billion, exceeding the $3.46 billion expected.

Revenue of $8.1 billion plus-or-minus 2%: This is below estimates of the aforementioned $8.4 billion but includes an estimated reduction of approximately $500 million related to Russia and the Covid lockdowns in China. The gaming business is expected to see a $400 million haircut and the impact to the data center business is expected to be approximately $100 million. Management said overall gaming end demand "remained solid" in the quarter but it was mixed by region, with the Americas strong but parts of Europe were soft due to Russia's war in Ukraine and China's hit due to Covid lockdowns. Revenue from hyperscale and cloud computing customers (think the Amazon , Microsoft , Alphabet 's Google, Alibaba 's of the world) more than doubled year over year.

Nvidia expects strong sequential sales growth in Data Center and Automotive to be more than offset by the sequential decline (in the teens on a percentage basis) of Gaming, which is also preparing to go through a new architectural transition later this year.

Management is calling for approximately $8.1 billion in revenue in Q2, representing growth of 25% year over year. The data center segment generated the highest amount of revenue for the company in the quarter, at $3.75 billion out of revenue across all segments of $8.3 billion. This was likely due to the soft guidance for the fiscal second quarter, where revenue is expected to decelerate further. After reporting growth of 37% in the previous quarter, the gaming segment remained strong, with revenue up 31% in the first quarter. Gaming revenue has remained strong throughout the pandemic due to limited availability of inventory coupled with high demand. While it decelerated from the previous quarter's 53% growth rate, revenue of $8.29 billion beat expectations for $8.1 billion.
