Nvidia Boosts Dividend 2,400% and Expands Buyback on Record Quarter

Nvidia posted fiscal Q1 revenue of $81.6B, up 85% year over year, with data center revenue totaling a record $75.2B. The board approved a 25x jump in the quarterly dividend to $0.25 per share (about $1 annualized) and added $80B to the share repurchase program, bringing total buybacks to roughly $120B. Free cash flow was about $48.6B, and management guided Q2 revenue to about $91B, signaling further acceleration, as the AI-driven growth story strengthens despite risks in China and among customers designing their own chips.
