Nvidia has implemented significant price increases across its entire lineup of graphics processing units, with gaming GPUs seeing a 5 to 10 percent hike and Artificial Intelligence-focused products, including the H200 and B200, rising up to 15 percent. The decision, as reported by Digitimes Taiwan, is attributed to higher tariffs, a ban on advanced Artificial Intelligence chip sales to China, and increased production expenses from relocating advanced packaging operations to the United States.
Despite geopolitical headwinds and supply chain adjustments, Nvidia´s core Artificial Intelligence business continues to thrive, powered by robust demand from hyperscale data centers and government-backed Artificial Intelligence initiatives. CEO Jensen Huang has taken steps to manage relationships in China amid ongoing export restrictions. The market has responded positively to Nvidia´s pricing moves, with the company´s shares surging over 16 percent in just the past week, indicating sustained investor trust in Nvidia´s leadership in Artificial Intelligence hardware.
The company´s strong financial standing underpins its premium valuation. Currently, Nvidia boasts a forward price-earnings ratio of 33.25 and a price-to-sales multiple of 25.36, both notably high compared to competitors like Advanced Micro Devices and Intel. The company´s dominant Artificial Intelligence position and a profit margin approaching 56 percent have helped justify these figures. However, Nvidia faces uncertainty from further export bans and increased U.S. production costs, which it forecasts could impact future earnings by billions of dollars. Looking ahead to its next earnings announcement in late May, analysts remain bullish, with the vast majority recommending the stock as a strong buy and an average price target signaling further upside potential. Demand for Nvidia´s Artificial Intelligence chip infrastructure remains a key growth driver, even as the company adapts to evolving global trade dynamics.
