Nvidia stock fundamentals
While Nvidia maintains a dividend, the company remains primarily a growth-focused investment driven by artificial intelligence demand.

Looking ahead, Nvidia expects third-quarter revenue of approximately $108 billion, which would mark its first quarter generating more than $100 billion in sales.
The technology company also projected roughly 70% revenue growth for fiscal 2028, citing strong AI infrastructure spending across hyperscalers, enterprises, and cloud providers.
The strong outlook has reinforced bullish sentiment among analysts, many of whom maintain ‘Buy’ ratings on the stock, with price targets ranging from above $300 to as high as $515.
