Nvidia's Strong Growth Potential and Strategic Positioning: Analyst Buy RatingWe place a great deal of importance on these meetings; we have noted that in last year's NDR NVIDIA highlighted the impact of token growth and inference scaling as we moved to "reasoning" models, which ended up defining the demand strength that we have seen for the last 12 months. These meetings were less of an epiphany for us vs. last year, mostly because the growth drivers are a bit more obvious, but they still give strong rationale for why demand will stay strong, why financing concerns are overblown, and why the company's competitive position will stay strong. Investor focus is primarily on the demand picture, where management enthusiasm on both near-term and long-term outlook continues to strengthen.

Nvidia's Strategic Investments and Partnerships Justify Buy Rating Amid Growth PotentialWe view potential “circular revenue” from strategic investments as potentially dilutive to NVDA ’s multiple. As with any strategic investment in a customer which is not self- fi nancing, we believe investors will focus on the fundamentals of that customer. When equity investment comes from a supplier, we believe additional scrutiny is warranted given the “circular” nature of the revenue because of the investor’s dual role as investor and supplier. However, we also view Nvidia’s investment as strategic as it seeds the broader ecosystem. We believe Nvidia’s investments make clear strategic sense as: (1) they reinforce the market for Nvidia’s CUDA software ecosystem among developers; (2) they serve as a signaling mechanism to investors regarding Nvidia’s view on the scale of the market opportunity.

Nvidia's Strong Market Position and Growth Potential Justify Buy Rating Amid Positive Outlook and Strategic InvestmentsWe spoke with NVIDIA and provide brief notes on key investor topics below. While we await further details on the recent $100B OpenAI investment, we walked away incrementally positive on the company’s roadmap and competitive positioning post Rubin CPX GPU launch. We model Oct/Jan- Qs sales $54B/$62B and adjust CY26/27 estimates +1%/+10% to align with Citi’s updated AI infrastructure spending forecast and view on financing flows (see note). We lift our TP to $210 from $200 on consistent 30x P/E times revised CY26E ~$7 earnings power and view GTC Washington Oct 27-29 as a potential catalyst for the stock. Maintain Buy. GPU vs XPU — Management commented that the company's view on Google and merchant GPU vs ASIC debate hasn't changed, and the outlook is strong and they feel good about execution and roadmap.
