What are Wall Street analysts saying about NVIDIA stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about NVIDIA stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "NVIDIA posted a stellar first quarter and provided encouraging second-quarter fiscal 2019 revenue guidance. Also, the company registered year-over-year growth on both the counts, primarily stemming from growth across all four platforms. Also, higher-than-anticipated demand for its gaming chips helped drive the encouraging results. Furthermore, we believe NVIDIA’s innovative product pipeline and strength in gaming and high-end notebook GPUs keep it well positioned. We also expect higher adoption of NVIDIA’s Volta processors to act as a catalyst in the near term. Nonetheless, recent developments like suspension of test drives for all its driverless vehicles and a likely sluggish demand from cryptocurrency miners makes us slightly cautious about its near-term performance. The stock has outperformed the industry to which it belongs to in a year’s time frame." (5/15/2018)
- 2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "NVDA is down ~6% over the past week in part due to the announcement from Tesla that it will source future infotainment chips from Intel as well as the rumor that the company could be designing an AI chip for self-driving applications in house via a partnership with AMD." (9/28/2017)
- 3. B. Riley analysts commented, "We believe the development has potential to be a modest fundamental and psychological negative for NVDA in the intermediate-term, though believe the company remains the dominant autopilot solutions provider with a substantial competitive moat and very strong developer momentum. More specifically, we would be surprised if TSLA moved to an internal solution in the next year or perhaps two, so NVDA C17&18 Auto Platform estimates seem to have little risk. Further, we remind investors NVDA’s year-to-date autopilot partnership announcements with Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, Volkswagen’s Audi group and Volvo. We expect additional auto manufacturer partnerships will be struck later in 2017 and 2018, and as that happens expect non-recurring engineering (NRE) revenue will accelerate into C18." (9/21/2017)
- 4. Loop Capital analysts commented, "We think investors’ concerns that data center growth has slowed and topped out are unwarranted as FQ2 was a transition quarter to Volta. With Volta ramped, we are modeling a return to double-digit growth in FQ3. We are also cautious on how much more legs the demand from crypto currency mining has and we are modeling that business to flatten out in FQ3 and decline -20% YoY in F2019. We expect strong demand in data center and gaming in F2019 to more than offset the declines of crypto and we are modeling 14% YoY and 25% YoY growth, respectively. As for the step-up in OpEx, we believe NVDA must continue to spend to maintain its leadership position. We believe there is leverage in the model in F2019 driven by revenue growth and expanding margins." (8/11/2017)
