CEO Jensen Huang stated that the company dropped from a 95% market share in China to none. NVIDIA, despite losing its Chinese market, reported strong Q1 earnings for 2027 due to the AI boom. Revenue hit $81.6 billion, a 20% rise from the previous quarter and an 85% increase from last year. The company announced an $80 billion stock buyback program and increased dividends. NVIDIA’s market share in China has declined significantly due to U.S. export restrictions. Once dominant, NVIDIA now has no market share in China’s advanced chip market. U.S. policies have limited NVIDIA’s ability to sell certain advanced chips in China, and even approved sales of throttled chips have faced low demand. The Chinese government recently banned another chip model. NVIDIA’s CEO believes the Chinese market will eventually open, with Huawei filling the gap for now. Despite these challenges, the worldwide AI demand keeps NVIDIA afloat.
