Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has announced its fourth-quarter results for the fiscal year 2025, showcasing significant growth driven by the escalating demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips.
The company reported a quarterly revenue of $39.3 billion, marking a 78% increase from the same period last year. Net income for the quarter stood at $22.06 billion, reflecting an 80% year-over-year rise. This surge is largely attributed to the widespread adoption of AI technologies across various industries.
Despite emerging competition from companies like China’s DeepSeek, which has developed AI models requiring fewer GPUs, Nvidia maintains a strong market position. The company’s CEO, Jensen Huang, emphasized the “amazing” demand for Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs, which have significantly contributed to the company’s robust performance.
