Nvidia Shares Slip in After-Hours Trading Following Q2 Earnings (August 27, 2025)

Mountain View, CA - Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) saw its stock decline sharply in after-hours trading on Wednesday after releasing its second-quarter results.

Nvidia reported adjusted earnings of $1.05 per share on record revenue of $46.74 billion, marking a 56% year-over-year increase and slightly surpassing Wall Street forecasts. The company’s data center segment-its largest revenue driver-generated $41.1 billion, up 56% from the prior year but just below analysts’ projections.

Following the earnings announcement, Nvidia shares fell by more than 3% in extended trading, closing at approximately $174.00, down $7.60 from the regular-session close, on volume exceeding 22 million shares. Investors digested the mixed signals of strong top-line growth alongside pressures from export restrictions in China and muted data center bookings.

Key Highlights:

  • Adjusted EPS: $1.05 vs. $1.02 consensus
  • Revenue: $46.74 billion vs. $46.52 billion consensus
  • Data Center Revenue: $41.1 billion (record high)
  • After-hours share price: $174.00, down 4.2%

Analysts will watch Nvidia’s third-quarter guidance and management commentary on supply-chain challenges and demand trends in AI infrastructure when the company hosts its earnings call later this evening.
