The most closely watched earnings report in tech is coming. Nvidia will report its fiscal third-quarter 2027 results in mid-November 2026, and the numbers will be read as a health check on the entire AI boom.
When does Nvidia report?
Nvidia has not confirmed the date yet. Based on its usual pattern, the report is expected on a Wednesday after the US market closes, with 18 November the most commonly listed date. Some trackers list 17 or 25 November, so treat every date as an estimate until Nvidia publishes its notice. Last year the company announced its date about three weeks ahead, so a confirmation should arrive soon. Results usually appear shortly after 4:00 p.m. ET, with the call around 5:00 p.m. ET.
Which quarter is this?
Nvidia’s fiscal year ends in late January, so the quarter covers late July to late October 2026, which the company calls fiscal Q3 2027.
What Nvidia has guided
- Revenue: about $108.0 billion, plus or minus 2%
- Gross margin: about 74.0%, plus or minus 50 basis points
- Previous quarter: revenue of $96.22 billion and earnings of $2.22 per share in the quarter reported on 26 August, ahead of analysts’ $2.09 estimate
What investors will watch
- Revenue versus guidance: whether Nvidia lands at or above the $108 billion target.
- Gross margin: whether it holds near 74% as costs and product mix change.
- The outlook: management has said demand is running ahead of supply, so the next-quarter forecast and any update on growth targets matter as much as the quarter itself.
- Supply and receivables: investors are also tracking supply commitments and how quickly customers pay.
Why it matters beyond Nvidia
Nvidia’s chips power much of the AI infrastructure built by cloud companies, AI labs and governments, so its results influence sentiment across technology and AI-linked stocks worldwide. A strong report can lift chipmakers and cloud providers, while a miss or a cautious outlook can pull them down.
How to follow it
- Watch Nvidia’s investor relations page for the official date announcement.
