UBS Sees Nvidia Q1 Revenue Slightly Above Guidance, EPS Hurt by H20 Ban

UBS analysts expect Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) to post $44 billion in April-quarter revenue—just above its $43 billion guide—potentially easing investor worries over near-term growth amid regulatory and supply-chain headwinds. However, adjusted EPS of $0.76 is forecast to miss the Street’s $0.89 consensus, primarily due to margin charges from the U.S. export ban on H20 GPUs.


Key UBS Forecasts

  • Revenue: $44 billion vs. $43 billion guide

  • Adjusted EPS: $0.76 vs. $0.89 consensus

  • Q2 Guidance (July Quarter): $44.6 billion vs. $46.5 billion Street estimate

UBS maintains a Buy rating but trims its 12-month price target from $180 to $175, reflecting a lowered fiscal 2026 EPS forecast of $4.22 (down from $4.86) as gross-margin impacts persist.


Supply-Chain & Regulatory Headwinds

  • H20 Ban Charges: Restrictions on U.S. GPU exports are expected to dent margins more than initially anticipated.

  • Blackwell Ramp: New Blackwell GB300 shipments should boost data-center growth in H2, though delays and limited inventory repurposing cap upside near term.
