# NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Technology / Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment. Price $230.36, market value $5.56 trillion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 29.2×** (5-yr avg 63.3×, 3-yr avg 46.0×). NVIDIA Corporation trades at 29.2× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 63.3×: cheap by its own standards. The Technology median in the September 2026 study was 32.1×. Forward P/E is 14.8×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.22**. A PEG of 0.22 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 18.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 18.4×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Price / book: 24.3×**. The shares trade at 24.3× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **EV / EBITDA: 27.6×**. Enterprise value is 27.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; above 20× is demanding.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 2.3%** (5-yr avg 1.6%). Free cash flow equals 2.3% of the market value, above its five-year average of 1.6%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.
- **Earnings yield: 3.4%**. The inverse of the P/E: 3.4% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 74.7%**. NVIDIA Corporation keeps 74.7% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, the kind of margin that comes with software, brands or pricing power.

- **Net margin: 55.6%**. 55.6% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 76.3%**. A 76.3% return on equity is extremely high; check whether buybacks or debt have shrunk the equity base, which flatters the ratio.
- **Return on invested capital: 100.6%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 100.6%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: 93.3%**. Each dollar of assets produces 93.3% of profit.

- **Payout ratio: 1%** (5% of free cash flow). 1% of earnings goes out as dividends, leaving room to keep raising it.
- **Consecutive years of increases: 14**. 14 straight years of increases, a record that survived at least one recession.
