Today, NVIDIA released its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, ending at the end of October. In this quarter, NVIDIA’s revenue and net profit once again exceeded Wall Street expectations: revenue reached ​57.006 billion.

Jensen Huang, NVIDIA’s founder and CEO, stated: “Sales of Blackwell have skyrocketed, and GPUs in the cloud have also sold out. Computing demand continues to accelerate and compound in both training and inference—each growing exponentially.”​

In fact, before NVIDIA released its quarterly earnings, the market was shrouded in a cautious mood. Huang seemed intent on injecting a confidence boost into the market; his first remark during the earnings call was: “Discussions about an AI bubble have been widespread recently, but from our perspective, we are seeing an entirely different picture.”​

In his view, the world is undergoing three large-scale platform transformations simultaneously: the shift from CPU general-purpose computing to GPU-accelerated computing, the transition driven by AI to spawn new applications, and the rise of Agentic AI. NVIDIA has been chosen to participate in these three transformations because it can support all three with a single architecture.​

Colette Kress, NVIDIA’s CFO, said that the company’s revenue forecast for products based on the Blackwell and Rubin architectures—from the start of this year to the end of 2026—is clear, totaling $500 billion.​

Two key pillars have supported NVIDIA’s sustained performance growth: hyperscale cloud providers and foundation model vendors. Today, the two contribute roughly equally to NVIDIA’s results.​

Demand for AI infrastructure continues to outpace NVIDIA’s expectations. Capacity at major cloud service providers has been fully sold out, and all NVIDIA GPUs—including products based on new-generation and previous-generation architectures such as Blackwell, Hopper, and Ampere—are operating at full load.​

Kress also revealed that sales of the H20 amounted to approximately $50 million, which is largely “negligible.” Due to geopolitical issues and increasingly fierce competition in the Chinese market, large-scale procurement orders were not fulfilled this quarter. NVIDIA expressed disappointment with the current situation, as it has prevented the company from shipping more competitive data center computing products to China.
