MD&A

Our next-generation Data Center architecture, Vera Rubin, began production shipments in the third quarter of fiscal year 2027. We will be shipping both Blackwell and Rubin systems in the future and are currently experiencing certain supply constraints. Demand estimates for our products can be inaccu…
costs, and increased warranty costs. We have significantly increased our supply and capacity commitments from $119 billion last quarter to $279 billion as of July 26, 2026 to meet future demand. Refer to Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 o…
The availability of land, power, shell, and capital is crucial to support the buildout of a full data center inclusive of NVIDIA AI infrastructure by our customers and partners, and any shortage of these or other necessary resources could impact our future revenue and financial performance. Expandin…
In August 2026, we entered into guarantees with SB Energy Corp. to provide credit support on the land, power, and shell buildout at SB Energy’s PORTS Technology Campus in Pike County, Ohio, covering leases for approximately 4.25 gigawatts of IT load. The campus will exclusively host our compute unde…

Expanding energy capacity to meet dema…
We expect our Rubin platform to start shipping in the second half of fiscal year 2027. The complexity of bringing up our product architecture and sophisticated system configurations has caused and may in the future cause delays in production and create challenges in managing supply and demand. This …
Beginning in February 2026, the U.S. government, or USG, granted licenses that allow us to ship small amounts of H200 products to specific China-based customers. To date, we have not generated any revenue under the H200 licensing program, and do not yet know whether any imports will be allowed into …
The recent rise in high-quality, open-source foundation models is making advanced AI capabilities broadly accessible. Open-source AI is dependent on developer adoption, and if deployed on our competitors’ platforms, it could reduce demand for our products and services.
We have made, and expect to continue making, investments in our ecosystem to enhance our growth opportunities, cultivate our ecosystem, and strengthen our competitive position. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, we made the following investments:
Market risk (Item 3)
Text added vs the prior filing · source: 10-Q · 2026-08-26
Financial market risks related to investment and interest rate risk are described in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 25, 2026.
Our marketable equity securities consist of publicly-held equity securities, while our non-marketable equity securities are investments in privately-held companies. Publicly-held equity securities are subject to market price volatility.
Non-marketable equity securities are measured based on cost minus impairment, if any, and are adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment in the same issuer. Valuations of our non-marketable equity securities are inherently complex due to the …
In the first half of fiscal year 2027, we made additional investments in publicly-held equity securities and non-marketable equity securities that are subject to these risks, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of our holdings.
For a description of our investments, refer to Notes 5 and 6 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Non-marketable equity securities are measured based on cost minus impairment, if any, and are adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment in the same issuer. Valuations of our non-
marketable equity securities are inherently complex due to the lack of readily available market data and observable transactions, and impact of macroeconomic factors.

Risk factors
Text added vs the prior filing · source: 10-Q · 2026-08-26
Commitments, guarantees, and other commercial arrangements expose us to financial, counterparty and execution risks and may not provide anticipated benefits.
To support our operations and growth, we commit capital to secure supply and capacity, obtain cloud services, and lease data center capacity. These arrangements require substantial payments over many years. If future demand, our needs or plans differ from our expectations, we may be unable to reduce…
To support our customers’ and partners’ buildout of AI infrastructure, we enter into commercial arrangements, including financial guarantees and other forms of credit support, financing arrangements, and data center leases.
Customers or partners may fail to fulfill their financial commitments, secure necessary capital or infrastructure, complete projects on schedule or within budget, or experience financial distress or insolvency. Power constraints, government actions or regulations, permitting delays, or community opp…
Financing arrangements with certain investment-grade customers, including extended payment terms under large, multi-quarter agreements, will continue to affect the timing of our operating cash flows. We intend to assign certain data center leases to third parties. Delays in completing these assignme…

Competition could adversely impact our market share and financial results.
Our target markets remain competitive, and competition may intensify with expanding and changing product and service offerings, industry standards, customer and market needs, new entrants and consolidations. Other companies compete
with us on a wide range of parameters including price, total cost of ownership, and performance, which has resulted and may in the future result in lower-than-expected selling prices or demand for our products. Some of our competitors operate their own fabrication facilities, and have longer operati…
Long manufacturing lead times and uncertain supply and capacity availability, combined with a failure to estimate customer demand accurately, has led and could in the future lead to mismatches between supply and demand.
We have long manufacturing lead times and build finished products and maintain inventory in advance of anticipated demand. In periods of shortages impacting the semiconductor industry and/or limited supply or capacity in our supply chain, the lead times for certain supply may be extended. We have pr…

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
