What are Wall Street analysts saying about NVIDIA stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about NVIDIA stock:
- 1. Mizuho analysts commented, "We are at the NVDA analyst day and GTC March 18-19." (3/13/2019)
- 2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "Yesterday, NVDA announced an all-cash offer of $125/ share to acquire MLNX. The price equates to an enterprise value of $6.9BN or ~6.3x 2018 sales. The deal accounts for over 90% of NVDA’s $7.4BN of cash and short-term investments. The stock reacted positively on the news, up 7% on the day, which we found surprising given the unusual size of the transaction (NVDA has not made an acquisition of this magnitude in recent history) and the timing (following a negative pre-announcement). Nonetheless, we expect the deal will be immediately accretive to the financials assuming no synergies (revenue or cost) and see it helping to expand the company into the Infiniband and Ethernet markets. We do wonder though about the strategic synergies of the deal as the two companies sell vastly different products into the data center." (3/12/2019)
- 3. According to Zacks Investment Research, "NVIDIA is hurt by a string of weaknesses plaguing the semiconductor market recently. The company has lowered its guidance for the fiscal fourth quarter blaming weakness in the gaming and data center spaces. Although the channel inventory reduction of midrange Pascal products has been in line with management’s expectations, sales is expected to be lower due to sluggish consumer demand for gaming GPUs owing to sharp deceleration in China, and weak Turing sales. Further, many of its data center deals did not close in the last month of the quarter as economic uncertainties made customers increasingly cautious. Shares underperformed the industry in the past year. Estimates have been going down ahead of the company’s Q4 earnings release. The company has mixed record of earnings surprises in recent quarters. However, growth opportunities in ray-traced gaming, high-performance computing, AI and self-driving cars are positive." (1/30/2019)
