NVIDIA Earnings Recap – Q1 FY2025
“Still the AI king. Still the growth king."
✅ We Called It.
We told our masterclass students. We told our YouTube subscribers. We posted it on the Discord watchlist. NVIDIA (NVDA) and the entire semiconductor sector were setting up for a bullish move—and tonight, that thesis got confirmed.
Don't forget our dip buy on April 7th as well.
After reporting blockbuster fiscal Q1 2025 earnings, NVIDIA surged 4.29% in after-hours, trading above $140 per share. Once again, the market is rewarding strength—and make no mistake, NVDA is still the leader of this AI-driven bull cycle.
💥 Earnings Highlights:
- EPS: $0.96 vs. $0.93 expected
- Revenue: $44.1 billion vs. $43.31 billion forecast
- Data Center Revenue: $39 billion (+73% YoY)
- Gaming Revenue: $3.8 billion (up 48% sequentially)
- Gross Margin: 75%
- YoY Revenue Growth: 114.2%
This was a clean beat across the board, with growth metrics that continue to dwarf every other name in the MAG7 lineup. The most important line item? Data center revenue at $39 billion—fueled by accelerating demand for AI infrastructure.
🚀 After-Hours Reaction:
- NVDA popped +4.29% post-earnings
- Closed after-hours at $140.59
- Broke above resistance on strong volume
- Options traders are pricing in more upside into summer
🎯 Our View: Price Target Raised
We’ve long said NVDA’s fair value is around $120/share without a growth premium—but this quarter proved that premium is not only justified, it may be expanding.
New 12-month target:
📍 $150–153 — new all-time highs well within reach during a potential summer rally.
We’re not making wild claims. We’re basing this on:
- Breakout earnings performance
- Strong forward guidance (Q2 est. $45B in revenue)
- Industry leadership in AI, gaming, data centers, and now robotics
- CEO Jensen Huang’s clear vision: “AI is growing faster than the internet, mobile, or cloud ever did.”
📉 Risks on the Radar:
- Geopolitical drag from China data center restrictions
- Supply chain bottlenecks
- Competitive pressures in AI and enterprise
- Macro volatility could affect high-beta names (NVDA’s beta: 2.11)
But none of these risks are new. And tonight, the market showed it’s still willing to pay a premium for real growth.
🧠 GAR Capital Masterclass Got It Right
This wasn’t luck. This was preparation.
We saw the setup. We traded the calls. We informed our community weeks ago that NVDA was a key leader to watch.
We don’t chase headlines. We build conviction and position accordingly. Tonight’s report confirms that thesis.
Looking Ahead:
- Q2 revenue guidance: $45B ± 2%
- Continued expansion into AI infrastructure, enterprise tools, and robotics
- Watch NVDA as the market barometer for AI momentum
Stay tactical, stay prepared, and as always—trade with a plan. Let’s make it a strong finish to the week, — Carlos GAR Capital
