Nvidia Prepares Third-Quarter Earnings Amid Stock Underperformance

Nvidia prepares to report fiscal third-quarter earnings as investors weigh massive order books against intensifying competition and slower stock growth relative to the semiconductor index.

Nvidia is preparing to report its fiscal third-quarter earnings following a period of stock underperformance relative to the broader semiconductor market. While the PHLX Semiconductor Index has gained over 60% this year, Nvidia stock has risen approximately 12%.

Market skepticism regarding the sustainability of the company's growth trajectory has contributed to this gap, as trailing 12-month revenue has already exceeded $250 billion. The company also faces intensifying competition from AMD and custom accelerators developed by hyperscalers.

Despite these pressures, Nvidia maintains a 74% gross margin and an 85% year-over-year revenue growth rate in its most recent quarter. The company's order book for 2026 and 2027 is estimated at $1 trillion. Investors are now focusing on upcoming management commentary regarding the stability of gross margins and order flow from hyperscalers.
