NVIDIA: An AI Monster Still with Room to Grow
Introduction
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) is the world leader in artificial intelligence computing, manufacturing GPUs and driving advances in AI, HPC, gaming, creative design, autonomous vehicles, and robotics. Given the company’s unique advantage and impressive growth, I remain bullish on the stock’s potential.
Company Overview
Founded in 1993 as a semiconductor firm, NVIDIA is the world leader in AI computing, manufacturing GPUs, and driving future AI gaming, design, and robotics developments. Along with selling its chips worldwide, NVIDIA hopes to continue developing the “metaverse”, the virtual reality space which many people believe to be the future of entertainment and productivity.
Future Growth Catalysts
- Digital Education system: As education continues its transition to digital learning, we will likely see an increased demand for both generic and high-power computing chips which NVIDIA sells. Specifically, NVIDIA’s high quality, reliant, effective products combined with its brand image makes NVIDIA positioned for continued growth amidst this shift.
- Performance Gaming/Esports: NVIDIA’s technology and quality have deeply changed the gaming and virtual experience. NVIDIA chips allow gamers an optimal experience for content creators, tech reviewers, and gamers. As demand for gaming and the metaverse — areas that NVIDIA wishes to continue expanding to — increase, demand for NVIDIA chips will likely also increase.
Financial Analysis
While NVIDIA’s stock has risen over 144.22% in one year, the company is still growing at impressive rates. In its Q2 Earnings, revenue was up 15% QoQ from Q1 2024 and up 122% from Q2 2024. Additionally, the company’s gross profit margins of ~76% in Q2 2024 are extremely impressive, proving NVIDIA’s continued dominance and crazy profit margins in the AI space.
As the company also still has $7.5 billion left in its share repurchasing initiative, we will likely see a continued rise in stock price as supply of the stock decreases. However, many investors are now beginning to see NVIDIA as overvalued. With at P/E ratio of 55.78x compared to the semiconductor industry median of 39.27x, some investors believe NVIDIA is trading at much too high of a price. Yet, , NVIDIA’s market capitalization of 2.93T and extraordinary gross margin of 75.1% still demonstrate the impressive ability of this company to generate substantial revenue while maintaining operational efficiency, making me remain bullish about NVIDIA’s future.
Risks
As technology and AI advance, NVIDIA is going to need to keep up in order to stay in play with the market. AI can sometimes be unpredictable, however if NVIDIA can make sure they keep AI stable, and control its growth, then the NVIDIA can ensure its exponential growth. I personally believe it is possible, NVIDIA has made tons of advancements in the technology industry, and is constantly innovating new techniques that allow it to be a massive player in the industry.
Conclusion
The NVIDIA Corporation is an extremely successful company in its technological field, focusing on AI and GPU production. With its strong growth prospects and strong future to come around AI, it makes an exceptional investment opportunity. With the risk of NVIDIA keeping itself in check with AI, it has the capital and knowledge to innovate new ways to address their issues and continue its momentum in the market.
