FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
NVIDIA Announces Financial Results for Second Quarter Fiscal 2021
•Record revenue of $3.87 billion, up 50 percent from a year earlier
•Record Data Center revenue of $1.75 billion, up 167 percent from a year earlier
•Mellanox growth accelerated in its first quarter as part of NVIDIA, contributed 14 percent of revenue
SANTA CLARA, Calif.-Aug. 19, 2020- NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported record revenue for the second quarter ended July 26, 2020, of $3.87 billion, up 50 percent from $2.58 billion a year earlier, and up 26 percent from $3.08 billion in the previous quarter.
GAAP earnings per diluted share for the quarter were $0.99, up 10 percent from $0.90 a year ago, and down 33 percent from $1.47 in the previous quarter. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $2.18, up 76 percent from $1.24 a year earlier, and up 21 percent from $1.80 in the previous quarter.
NVIDIA closed its acquisition of Mellanox Technologies Ltd. on April 27, 2020.
“Adoption of NVIDIA computing is accelerating, driving record revenue and exceptional growth,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Growth in GeForce gaming accelerated as gamers increasingly immerse themselves in realistic virtual worlds created by NVIDIA RTX ray tracing and AI.
“Our new Ampere GPU architecture is sprinting out of the blocks, with the world’s top cloud service providers and server makers moving quickly to offer NVIDIA accelerated computing. Mellanox grew sharply, driven by the need for high-speed networking in cloud data centers to scale-out AI services. And Mercedes-Benz’s partnership with NVIDIA to power its next-generation fleet of luxury cars -- from the computer to the AI software, and from the cloud to the car -- is transformative.
“Despite the pandemic’s impact on our professional visualization and automotive platforms, we are well positioned to grow, as gaming, AI, cloud computing and autonomous machines drive the next industrial revolution around the world,” he said.
NVIDIA paid $99 million in quarterly cash dividends in the second quarter. It will pay its next quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per share on September 24, 2020, to all shareholders of record on September 2, 2020.

CFO Commentary
Commentary on the quarter by Colette Kress, NVIDIA’s executive vice president and chief financial officer, is available at http://investor.nvidia.com/.
Conference Call and Webcast Information
NVIDIA will conduct a conference call with analysts and investors to discuss its second quarter fiscal 2021 financial results and current financial prospects today at 2 p.m. Pacific time (5 p.m. Eastern time). A live webcast (listen-only mode) of the conference call will be accessible at NVIDIA’s investor relations website, http://investor.nvidia.com. The webcast will be recorded and available for replay until NVIDIA’s conference call to discuss its financial results for its third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement NVIDIA’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-
GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP income tax expense, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income, or earnings, per diluted share, and free cash flow. In order for NVIDIA’s investors to be better able to compare its current results with those of previous periods, the company has shown a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related and other costs, legal settlement costs, losses from non-affiliated investments, interest expense related to amortization of debt discount, and the associated tax impact of these items, where applicable. Free cash flow is calculated as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less purchase of property and equipment and intangible assets. NVIDIA believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user’s overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance. The presentation of the company’s non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the company’s non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Revenue
Revenue for the second quarter was a record $3.87 billion, up 50 percent from a year earlier and up 26 percent sequentially. Results for the second quarter include the acquisition of Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. on April 27, 2020, the first day of the quarter. Mellanox contributed approximately 14 percent of total company revenue.
Graphics segment revenue for the second quarter was $2.09 billion, up 16 percent from a year earlier and up 9 percent sequentially.
Compute & Networking segment revenue, which includes Mellanox, was $1.78 billion, up 130 percent from a year ago and up 52 percent sequentially.
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our business, with most of our employees working remotely. Our employees and partners are performing above and beyond to keep our supply chain functioning normally. Many industries we serve are adversely impacted, including higher education research, energy, manufacturing, automotive, architecture, engineering, and media. Each industry is recovering, albeit at different rates. Professional Visualization revenue was negatively affected as corporate customers delayed spending on workstations. Automotive production is well below pre-COVID-19 levels.
From a market-platform perspective, Gaming revenue was $1.65 billion, up 26 percent from a year ago and up 24 percent sequentially. The year-on-year increase reflects higher sales of gaming GPUs. The sequential increase reflects higher sales from gaming GPUs and game console SOCs.
Professional Visualization revenue was $203 million, down 30 percent from a year earlier and down 34 percent sequentially.
Data Center revenue, which includes Mellanox, was a record $1.75 billion, up 167 percent from a year ago and up 54 percent sequentially. Mellanox contributed approximately 14 percent of total company revenue and just over 30 percent of Data Center revenue for the second quarter. In addition to Mellanox, the year-on-year and sequential increases were driven by the ramp of Ampere GPU architecture products.
Automotive revenue was $111 million, down 47 percent from a year earlier and down 28 percent sequentially.
OEM and Other revenue was $146 million, up 32 percent from a year ago and up 6 percent sequentially, primarily due to higher demand for entry-level laptop GPUs.

All values are in US Dollars.
GAAP gross margin for the second quarter was 58.8 percent, down 100 basis points from a year earlier and down 630 basis points sequentially, reflecting charges related to the Mellanox acquisition. These charges include a non-recurring inventory step-up expense of $161 million and intangible asset amortization of $84 million that is expected to be recurring.
Non-GAAP gross margin for the second quarter was 66.0 percent, up 590 basis points from a year earlier and up 20 basis points sequentially, reflecting a shift in product mix.
Expenses
| Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Operating Expenses | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| ($ in millions) | Q2 FY21 | Q1 FY21 | Q2 FY20 |
| GAAP operating expenses | $1,624 | $1,028 | $970 |
| Stock-based compensation expense | (360) | (203) | (216) |
| Acquisition-related and other costs | (229) | (4) | (5) |
| Non-GAAP operating expenses | $1,035 | $821 | $749 |
GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter were $1.62 billion, inclusive of $589 million in stock-based compensation and acquisition-related costs. Stock-based compensation expense was $360 million, including non-recurring and other charges of $32 million. Acquisition-related costs were $229 million, including $185 million in short-term intangible amortization, transaction fees and other costs, and $44 million in longer-term recurring intangible amortization. Second-quarter GAAP operating expenses were up 67 percent from a year earlier and up 58 percent sequentially, primarily driven by the Mellanox acquisition, as well as hiring additional employees.
Non-GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter were $1.04 billion, up 38 percent from a year earlier and up 26 percent sequentially, reflecting the acquisition of Mellanox and hiring additional employees.
Operating Income
GAAP operating income for the second quarter was $651 million, up 14 percent from a year earlier and down 33 percent sequentially. Non-GAAP operating income for the second quarter was $1.52 billion, up 89 percent from a year earlier and up 26 percent sequentially.
Other Income & Expense and Income Tax
GAAP other income and expense, or OI&E, includes interest earned on cash and investments, interest expense associated with corporate bonds, and other gains and losses. Non-GAAP OI&E excludes the portion of interest expense from the amortization of the debt discount and the gains or losses from certain investments. GAAP
OI&E for the second quarter was an expense of $42 million, down from an income of $35 million a year earlier and down from an income of $5 million in the prior quarter. Non-GAAP OI&E for the second quarter was an expense of $39 million, down from an income of $35 million a year earlier and down from an income of $9 million in the prior quarter. The year-on-year and sequential decreases on both GAAP and non-GAAP bases primarily reflect higher interest expense due to our $5 billion note issuance in March 2020 and a decrease in interest income due to lower rates.
Our GAAP effective tax rate, inclusive of excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, was a benefit of 2.0 percent for the second quarter. Tax benefits relate to stock-based compensation and the U.S. research tax credit. In addition, the jurisdictional mix of revenue is favorable to our tax rate. The non-GAAP effective tax rate for the second quarter was 7.5 percent.
Net Income and EPS
GAAP net income for the second quarter was $622 million. GAAP earnings per diluted share for the second quarter were $0.99, up 10 percent from a year earlier and down 33 percent sequentially.
Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter was $1.37 billion. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for the second quarter were $2.18, up 76 percent from a year earlier and up 21 percent sequentially.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the second quarter were $10.98 billion, up from $8.47 billion a year earlier and down from $16.35 billion in the prior quarter. The year-on-year increase primarily reflects the issuance of the $5 billion of notes in March 2020 and free cash flow generation, partially offset by acquisitions. The sequential decrease reflects the Mellanox acquisition during the second quarter.
Accounts receivable at the end of the quarter was $2.08 billion compared with $1.56 billion a year earlier and $1.91 billion in the prior quarter. DSO at quarter-end was 49 days, down from 55 days a year earlier and down from 56 days in the prior quarter.
Inventory at the end of the quarter was $1.40 billion, up from $1.20 billion a year earlier and up from $1.13 billion in the prior quarter. Outstanding inventory purchase obligations at the end of the quarter were $2.04 billion, up from $757 million a year earlier and up from $1.76 billion in the prior quarter. DSI at quarter-end was 80 days, down from 106 days a year earlier and down from 95 days in the prior quarter.
Cash flow from operating activities was $1.57 billion in the second quarter, up from $936 million a year earlier and up from $909 million in the prior quarter. The year-on-year increase reflects higher revenue and the inclusion of Mellanox. The sequential increase reflects changes in working capital, the inclusion of Mellanox, and higher revenue.
Free cash flow was $1.35 billion in the second quarter, compared with $823 million a year earlier and $754 million in the previous quarter.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $404 million, including amortization of intangible assets related to the Mellanox acquisition. Capital expenditures were $217 million.
We paid $99 million in quarterly cash dividends in the second quarter.
Third Quarter of Fiscal 2021 Outlook
Our outlook for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 is as follows:
•Revenue is expected to be $4.40 billion, plus or minus 2 percent.
•GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be 62.5 percent and 65.5 percent, respectively, plus or minus 50 basis points.
•GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $1.54 billion and $1.09 billion, respectively.
•GAAP and non-GAAP other income and expense are both expected to be an expense of approximately $55 million.
•GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates are both expected to be 8 percent, plus or minus 1 percent, excluding any discrete items. GAAP discrete items include excess tax benefits or deficiencies related to stock-based compensation, which are expected to generate variability on a quarter by quarter basis.
•Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $225 million to $250 million.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement NVIDIA’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP income tax expense, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income, or earnings, per diluted share, and free cash flow. In order for NVIDIA’s investors to be better able to compare its current results with those of previous periods, the company has shown a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related and other costs, legal settlement costs, losses from non-affiliated investments, interest expense related to amortization of debt discount, and the associated tax impact of these items, where applicable. Free cash flow is calculated as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and intangible assets. NVIDIA believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user's overall understanding of the company’s historical financial performance. The presentation of the company’s non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the company’s non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
