Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) earnings were posted late in the day on Thursday and the company impressed investors with an adjusted profit and revenue beat, helping to lift NVDA stock by more than 8% after hours.
The Santa Clara, Ca.-based company said that for its fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, it brought in adjusted earnings of 80 cents per share, coming in ahead of the 75 cents per share that Wall Street projected, according to Refinitiv. The computer game company also amassed revenue of $2.21 billion, which declined 24% year-over-year but topped analysts’ guidance by $10 million, per Refinitiv.
