Nvidia's Q1 revenue hit $81.6B with 72% net margin; Navitas pivoted from China to AI, seeing Q3 forecast $13.5M. Both stocks reflect distinct AI plays.
Nvidia reported $81.6 billion in revenue for the quarter ended April 26, 2026. The net income margin reached 72%. Management guided next-quarter sales to $91 billion, pointing to large-scale technology infrastructure agreements in South Korea and other markets.
Navitas Semiconductor posted a negative 10% gross margin for the quarter ended June 30. The company had completed a strategic pivot away from its China mobile and consumer business. That segment represented 60% of Navitas revenue in 2024. Management said the pivot would depress sales through 2025 but forecast Q4 of that year as the bottom. Q1 2026 results confirmed the trough. Q2 showed an upward trend. Navitas guided Q3 revenue to $13.5 million, which would be the third consecutive quarter of rising sales.
The revenue trends for the two chipmakers reflect different phases of AI adoption. Nvidia is already monetizing demand for accelerated computing at scale. Its 72% net margin places it among the most profitable companies in technology. Navitas is rebuilding after giving up a large legacy revenue base. The company now focuses on power integrated circuits and silicon carbide devices for AI infrastructure. New thermal management packaging solutions for high-power applications are part of that product push.
Revenue scale differs dramatically. Nvidia’s quarterly revenue of $81.6 billion dwarfs Navitas’s single-digit millions. The gap reflects Nvidia’s first-mover advantage in AI training and inference hardware. Navitas occupies a smaller but growing niche in power efficiency for data centers.
Nvidia’s Alpha Score stands at 78 out of 100, labeled Strong. The stock closed at $223.96, up 2.27%.
Both companies tie their futures to AI spending. Nvidia’s guidance signals accelerating growth. Navitas management expects a third straight quarter of revenue increases. The difference in scale and profitability is large, but the direction for both is up.
