45、ments were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in theUnited States of America,or U.S.GAAP,for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Securities and ExchangeCommission,or SEC,Regulation S-X.The January 28,2024 consolidat
46、ed balance sheet was derived from our audited consolidated financial statementsincluded in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28,2024,as filed with the SEC,but does not include all disclosures required byU.S.GAAP.In the opinion of management,all adjustments,consisting o
47、nly of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation ofresults of operations and financial position,have been included.The results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the resultsexpected for any future period.The following information shoul
48、d be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes theretoincluded in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28,2024.In May 2024,we announced a ten-for-one stock split,or the Stock Split,of our issued common stock,which was effected throug
49、h the filing of an amendment tothe Companys Restated Certificate of Incorporation,or the Amendment,with the Secretary of the State of Delaware.In June 2024,the Company filed theAmendment to effect the Stock Split and proportionately increased the number of shares of the Companys authorized common st

52、0-K for the fiscal year ended January 28,2024.Fiscal YearWe operate on a 52-or 53-week year,ending on the last Sunday in January.Fiscal years 2025 and 2024 are both 52-week years.The second quarters of fiscalyears 2025 and 2024 were both 13-week quarters.Principles of ConsolidationOur condensed cons
53、olidated financial statements include the accounts of NVIDIA Corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiaries.All intercompany balancesand transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.GAAP requires management to make e
54、stimates and assumptions that affect the reportedamounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenueand expenses during the reporting period.Actual results could differ materially from our
55、estimates.On an on-going basis,we evaluate our estimates,includingthose related to accounts receivable,cash equivalents and marketable securities,goodwill,income taxes,inventories and product purchase commitments,investigation and settlement costs,litigation,other contingencies,property,plant,and eq
56、uipment,revenue recognition,and stock-based compensation.Theseestimates are based on historical facts and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable.Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsRecent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet AdoptedIn November 2023,the Financial Accounting Standards Boar
57、d,or FASB,issued a new accounting standard requiring disclosures of significant expenses inoperating segments.We expect to adopt this standard in our annual reporting starting with fiscal year 2025.We are currently evaluating the impact of thisstandard on our Consolidated Financial Statements.In Dec
58、ember 2023,the FASB issued a new accounting standard which includes new and updated income tax disclosures,including disaggregation of ratereconciliation and income taxes paid.We expect to adopt this standard in our annual reporting starting with fiscal year 2026.We are currently evaluating theimpac

73、 weighted average shares.11NVIDIA Corporation and SubsidiariesNotes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements(Continued)(Unaudited)Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the period,usingthe treasury
74、 stock method.The anti-dilutive effect of equity awards outstanding is not included in the computation of diluted net income per share.Note 5-Income TaxesIncome tax expense was$2.6 billion and$5.0 billion for the second quarter and first half of fiscal year 2025,respectively,and$793 million and$958
75、million forthe second quarter and first half of fiscal year 2024,respectively.The income tax expense as a percentage of income before income tax for the second quarterand first half of fiscal year 2025 was 13.6%and 13.7%,respectively,and 11.4%and 10.4%for the second quarter and first half of fiscal
76、year 2024,respectively.The effective tax rate increased primarily due to a lower percentage of tax benefits from the foreign-derived intangible income deduction relative to the increasein income before income tax.Effective tax rates for the first half of fiscal years 2025 and 2024 were lower than th
77、e U.S.federal statutory rate of 21%due to tax benefits from stock-basedcompensation,the foreign-derived intangible income deduction,income earned in jurisdictions that are subject to taxes lower than the U.S.federal statutory taxrate,and the U.S.federal research tax credit.Given our current and anti
78、cipated future earnings,we believe that we may release the valuation allowance associated with certain state deferred tax assets inthe near term,which would decrease our income tax expense for the period the release is recorded.The timing and amount of the valuation allowance releasecould vary based
79、 on our assessment of all available evidence.While we believe that we have adequately provided for all uncertain tax positions,or tax positions where we believe it is not more-likely-than-not that the positionwill be sustained upon review,amounts asserted by tax authorities could be greater or less
80、than our accrued position.Accordingly,our provisions on federal,state and foreign tax related matters to be recorded in the future may change as revised estimates are made or the underlying matters are settled or otherwiseresolved with the respective tax authorities.As of July 28,2024,we do not beli
81、eve that our estimates,as otherwise provided for,on such tax positions willsignificantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.Note 6-Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities The following is a summary of cash equivalents and marketable securities:Jul 28,2024AmortizedCostUnrealizedGainUnr

190、ry statements and risks describedelsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the SEC,before deciding to purchase,hold,or sell shares of our common stock.OverviewOur Company and Our BusinessesNVIDIA pioneered accelerated computing to help solve the most challenging comp
191、utational problems.Since our original focus on PC graphics,we haveexpanded to several other large and important computationally intensive fields.Fueled by the sustained demand for exceptional 3D graphics and the scale of thegaming market,NVIDIA has leveraged its GPU architecture to create platforms
192、for scientific computing,AI,data science,autonomous vehicles,robotics,and 3Dinternet applications.Our two operating segments are Compute&Networking and Graphics,as described in Note 14 of the Notes to CondensedConsolidated Financial Statements in Part I,Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.H
193、eadquartered in Santa Clara,California,NVIDIA was incorporated in California in April 1993 and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1998.Recent Developments,Future Objectives and ChallengesDemand and SupplyRevenue growth in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 was driven by data center compute plat
194、forms and networking for accelerated computing and AIsolutions.Hopper architecture demand is strong,and shipments are expected to increase in the second half of fiscal 2025.We shipped customer samples of ourBlackwell architecture in the second quarter.We executed a change to the Blackwell GPU mask t
195、o improve production yield.Blackwell production ramp isscheduled to begin in the fourth quarter and continue into fiscal year 2026.In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025,we expect to ship several billion dollars inBlackwell revenue.Demand estimates for our new products,applications,and services c
196、an be incorrect and create volatility in our revenue or supply levels.We may not be able togenerate significant revenue from them.Recent technologies,such as generative AI models,have emerged,and while they have driven increased demand forData Center,the long-term trajectory is unknown.We continue t
197、o increase our supply and capacity purchases with existing and new suppliers to support our demand projections.With these additions,we havealso entered and may continue to enter into prepaid manufacturing and capacity agreements to supply both current and future products.The increased purchasevolume
198、s and integration of new suppliers and contract manufacturers into our supply chain may create more complexity in managing multiple suppliers withvariations in production planning,execution and logistics.Our expanding product portfolio and varying component compatibility and quality may lead toincre
199、ased inventory levels.We have incurred and may in the future incur inventory24provisions or impairments if our inventory or supply or capacity commitments exceed demand for our products or demand declines.Product Transitions and New Product IntroductionsProduct transitions are complex and we often s
200、hip both new and prior architecture products simultaneously as our channel partners prepare to ship and supportnew products.We may be in various stages of transitioning the architectures of our Data Center,Gaming,Professional Visualization and Automotive products.The computing industry is experienci
201、ng a broader and faster launch cadence of accelerated computing platforms to meet a growing and diverse set of AIopportunities.We have introduced a new cadence of our Data Center architectures where we seek to complete a new GPU computing architecture each yearand we are providing a greater variety
202、of Data Center offerings.The increased frequency of these transitions and the larger number of products and productconfigurations may magnify the challenges associated with managing our supply and demand which may create volatility in our revenue.The increasedfrequency and complexity of newly introd
203、uced products could result in quality or production issues that could increase inventory provisions,warranty,or othercosts or result in product delays.We incur significant engineering development resources for new products,and changes to our product roadmap may impactour ability to develop other pro
204、ducts or adequately manage our supply chain cost.Customers may delay purchasing existing products as we increase thefrequency of new products or may not be able to adopt our new products as fast as forecasted,both impacting the timing of our revenue and supply chain cost.While we have managed prior
205、product transitions and have sold multiple product architectures at the same time,these transitions are difficult,may impair ourability to predict demand and impact our supply mix,and may cause us to incur additional costs.For example,we executed a change to the Blackwell GPUmask to improve producti
206、on yield.Our gross margins in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 were negatively impacted by inventory provisions for low-yieldingBlackwell material and they may continue to be impacted in the future.Global TradeIn August 2022,the U.S.government,or the USG,announced licensing requirements that,w
207、ith certain exceptions,impact exports to China(including HongKong and Macau)and Russia of our A100 and H100 integrated circuits,DGX or any other systems or boards which incorporate A100 or H100 integrated circuits.In July 2023,the USG informed us of an additional licensing requirement for a subset o
208、f A100 and H100 products destined to certain customers and otherregions,including some countries in the Middle East.In October 2023,the USG announced new and updated licensing requirements that became effective in our fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 for exports toChina and Country Groups D1,D4,an
209、d D5(including but not limited to Saudi Arabia,the United Arab Emirates,and Vietnam,but excluding Israel)of ourproducts exceeding certain performance thresholds,including A100,A800,H100,H800,L4,L40,L40S and RTX 4090.The licensing requirements also apply tothe export of products exceeding certain per
210、formance thresholds to a party headquartered in,or with an ultimate parent headquartered in,Country Group D5,including China.On October 23,2023,the USG informed us the licensing requirements were effective immediately for shipments of our A100,A800,H100,H800,and L40S products.We have not received li
211、censes to ship these restricted products to China.Additionally,partners and customers have experienceddelays in receiving licenses or have not received a license to ship these restricted products.We expanded our Data Center product portfolio to offer new solutions,including those for which the USG d
212、oes not require a license or advance notice beforeeach shipment.We ramped new products designed specifically for China that do not require an export control license.Our Data Center revenue in China grewsequentially in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 and is a significant contributor to our Dat
213、a Center revenue.As a percentage of total Data Center revenue,itremains below levels seen prior to the imposition of export controls in October 2023.To the extent that a customer requires products covered by the licensingrequirements,we may seek a license for the customer but have no assurance that
214、the USG will grant such a license,or that the USG will act on the licenseapplication in a timely manner or at all.Our competitive position has been harmed,and our competitive position and future results may be further harmed in the long term,if there are further changes inthe USGs export controls.Gi
215、ven the increasing strategic importance of AI and rising geopolitical tensions,the USG has changed and may again change theexport control rules at any time and further subject a wider range of our products to export restrictions and licensing requirements,negatively impacting ourbusiness and financi
216、al results.In the event of such change,we may be unable to sell our inventory of such products and may be unable to develop replacementproducts not subject to the licensing requirements,effectively excluding us from all or part of the China market,as well as other impacted markets,including theMiddl
217、e East.While we work to enhance the resiliency and redundancy of our supply chain,which is currently concentrated in the Asia-Pacific region,new and existing exportcontrols or changes to existing export controls could limit alternative manufacturing locations and negatively impact our business.Refer
218、 to“Item 1A.RiskFactors”for a discussion of this potential impact.25Macroeconomic FactorsMacroeconomic factors,includinginflation,interest rate changes,capital market volatility,global supply chain constraints and global economic and geopoliticaldevelopments,may have direct and indirect impacts on o
219、ur results of operations,particularly demand for our products.While difficult to isolate and quantify,these macroeconomic factors can also impact our supply chain and manufacturing costs,employee wages,costs for capital equipment and value of ourinvestments.Our product and solution pricing generally
220、 does not fluctuate with short-term changes in our costs.Within our supply chain,we continuouslymanage product availability and costs with our vendors.Israel and Regional ConflictsWe are monitoring the impact of the geopolitical conflict in and around Israel on our operations,including the health an
221、d safety of our approximately 4,000employees in the region who primarily support the research and development,operations,and sales and marketing of our networking products.Our globalsupply chain for our networking products has not experienced any significant impact.A substantial number of our employ
222、ees in the region have been called-upfor active military duty in Israel.Some employees in Israel have been on active military duty for an extended period and may continue to be absent,which maycause disruption to our product development or operations.We have not experienced significant impact or exp
223、ense to our business;however,if the conflict isfurther extended,it could impact future product development,operations,and revenue or create other uncertainty for our business.Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025 SummaryThree Months EndedQuarter-over-QuarterChangeYear-over-YearChange Jul 28,2024Apr 28,

278、4%and 10.4%for the second quarter and first half of fiscal year 2024,respectively.The effective tax rate increased primarily due to a lower percentage of tax benefits from the foreign-derived intangible income deduction relative to the increasein income before income tax.Given our current and antici

311、nges in Internal Control Over Financial ReportingThere were no changes that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 that have materially affected,or are reasonably likely to materially affect,ourinternal control over financial reporting.In fiscal year 2022,we began an upgrade of our e
312、nterprise resource planning,or ERP,system,which will update much ofour existing core financial systems.The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain our financial records used to report operating results.The upgrade willoccur in phases.We will continue to evaluate each quarter whether there are
313、changes that materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of ControlsOur management,including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internalcontrols,will prev
314、ent all error and all fraud.A control system,no matter how well conceived and operated,can provide only reasonable,not absolute,assurancethat the objectives of the control system are met.Further,the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints,and the benefits
315、of controls must be considered relative to their costs.Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems,no evaluation of controls can provide absoluteassurance that all control issues and instances of fraud,if any,within NVIDIA have been detected.33Part II.Other InformationItem 1.Legal Pro

318、Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended April 28,2024.Purchasing or owning NVIDIA common stock involves investment risks including,but not limited to,the risks described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended January28,2024,and Item 1A of our Quarter
319、ly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended April 28,2024,and below.Anyone of those risks could harm our business,financial condition and results of operations or reputation,which could cause our stock price to decline.Additionalrisks,trends and uncertainties not presently known to us or tha
320、t we currently believe are immaterial may also harm our business,financial condition,results ofoperations or reputation.Long manufacturing lead times and uncertain supply and component availability,combined with a failure to estimate customer demand accurately,has led and could lead to mismatches be
321、tween supply and demand.We use third parties to manufacture and assemble our products,and we have long manufacturing lead times.We are not provided guaranteed wafer,componentor capacity supply,and our supply deliveries and production may be non-linear within a quarter or year.If our estimates of cus
322、tomer demand are inaccurate,aswe have experienced in the past,there could be a significant mismatch between supply and demand.This mismatch has resulted in both product shortages andexcess inventory,has varied across our market platforms,and has significantly harmed our financial results.We build fi
323、nished products and maintain inventory in advance of anticipated demand.While we have in the past entered and may in the future enter into long-term supply agreements and capacity commitments,we may not be able to secure sufficient commitments for capacity to address our business needs,or ourlong-te
324、rm demand expectations may change.Additionally,our ability to sell certain products has been and could be impeded if components necessary for thefinished products are not available from third parties.This risk may increase as a result of our platform strategy.In periods of shortages impacting thesem
325、iconductor industry and/or limited supply or capacity in our supply chain,the lead times on orders for certain supply may be extended.We have previouslyexperienced and may continue to experience extended lead times of more than 12 months.We have paid premiums and provided deposits to secure futuresu
326、pply and capacity,which have increased our product costs and may continue to do so.If our existing suppliers are unable to scale their capabilities to meetour supply needs,we may require additional sources of capacity,which may require additional deposits.We may not have the ability to reduce our su
327、pplycommitments at the same rate or at all if our revenue declines.Many additional factors have caused and/or could in the future cause us to either underestimate or overestimate our customers future demand for our products,or otherwise cause a mismatch between supply and demand for our products and
328、 impact the timing and volume of our revenue,including:changes in product development cycles and time to market;competing technologies and competitor product releases,announcements or other actions;changes in business and economic conditions;sudden or sustained government lockdowns or public health
329、issues;rapidly changing technology or customer requirements;the availability of sufficient data center capacity or energy for customers to procure;new product introductions and transitions resulting in less demand for existing products;new or unexpected end-use cases;increase in demand for competiti

331、in governmental policies,such as export controls or increased restrictions on gaming usage.We continue to increase our supply and capacity purchases with existing and new suppliers to support our demand projections.With these additions,we havealso entered and may continue to enter into prepaid manuf
332、acturing and capacity agreements to supply both current and future products.The increased purchasevolumes and integration of new suppliers and contract manufacturers into our supply chain may create more complexity in managing multiple suppliers withvariations in production planning,execution and lo
333、gistics.Our expanding product portfolio and varying component compatibility and quality may lead toincreased inventory levels.We have incurred and may in the future incur inventory provisions or impairments if our inventory or supply or capacity commitmentsexceed demand for our products or demand declines.Our customer orders and longer-term demand estimates may change or may not be correct,as we h
