## Catalyst Analysis: Valuation Multiples Versus Growth Metrics - Revenue / EPS: Nvidia posted second-quarter revenue of $96.22 billion, beating Wall Street consensus expectations of $92.07 billion. Non-GAAP earnings per share came in at $2.22, topping estimates of $2.09, driven by a 117% surge in Data Center revenue to $89.02 billion. - Forward Guidance / CapEx: Management guided next-quarter revenue to $108.0 billion, noting that supply remains the primary operational limit. Early fiscal 2028 outlook calls for approximately 70% revenue growth, backed by nearly $50 billion in artificial intelligence lab investments and $279 billion in supply commitments.

Jim Cramer told viewers of CNBC’s Squawk on the Street on Wednesday, November 5, 2026, that NVIDIA is on sale at a forward multiple of roughly 16.5, representing the lowest forward multiple in about a decade. Historical comparisons show the company trading near 17 times next-12-month earnings in late September, down significantly from a 15-year average of 30x.

Despite robust financial prints—including revenue more than doubling year-over-year—investors continue trimming positions amid margin pressures slipping toward 71% to 72% and massive forward supply obligations.
