U.S. chipmaker Nvidia posted revenue of $46.7 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, up 56% from the same period last year and surpassing market expectations, the company announced Wednesday.

The company’s net profit also jumped 59% to $26.4 billion, compared with $16.6 billion in the same quarter last year. Earnings per share rose from $0.67 to $1.08.

Revenue from Nvidia’s data centre segment climbed 56% year-on-year to $41.1 billion, slightly below analysts’ forecasts. The company noted that no H20 chips were sold to China-based customers during the quarter.

Looking ahead, Nvidia expects revenue of $54 billion for the current quarter.

In a separate move, the company’s board approved an additional $60 billion for its share buyback programme, effective indefinitely.

CEO Jensen Huang highlighted the company’s role in the artificial intelligence sector, stating that the Artificial Intelligence (AI)  race has begun and Nvidia’s newest Blackwell AI chip is at the centre of this competition.
