NVIDIA Q1 revenue jumps 85% to $81.6B, Q2 guide hits $91B

The Data Center line — up 92% to $75.2B — is the real beat, and the $91B Q2 guide excludes any China compute revenue at all.

NVIDIA reported fiscal Q1 2027 revenue of $81.6 billion, up 85% year-over-year and 20% sequentially, with Data Center revenue climbing 92% to $75.2 billion. Non-GAAP diluted EPS rose 140% to $1.87 and non-GAAP gross margin held at 75.0%. Operating cash flow for the quarter reached $50.3 billion; free cash flow came in at $48.6 billion.

Why it matters

The $91 billion revenue guide for fiscal Q2 2027 is the headline inside the headline — and it explicitly excludes any Data Center compute revenue from China. That means the number management is willing to put on tape is, by their own framing, a floor rather than a ceiling. With Q1 already $6.6 billion above the prior quarter's record, the sequential ramp is intact even before any China contribution is added back into the model.

Market impact

For the broader AI-capex thesis, the print keeps the bid under the picks-and-shovels layer of the AI build-out. A 92% Data Center growth rate on a base that's already tens of billions per quarter is the read Wall Street has been waiting on to confirm the cycle hasn't rolled over. Watch the next quarter for any China-compute surprise on the upside — that is the swing variable the guide has now stripped out of consensus.
