NVIDIA makes computer chips called GPUs (graphics processing units). These chips were originally designed to render video game graphics, but they turned out to be extremely good at running artificial intelligence software. Today, NVIDIA's main customers are large cloud companies like Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, as well as AI research labs and data centers around the world that need massive computing power to train and run AI models.

NVIDIA earns most of its revenue by selling chips and related hardware, with its data center segment now far larger than its gaming business. The company operates globally, and with a market cap near $4.8 trillion, it is one of the largest companies in the world. Its main competitive advantage is its CUDA software platform, which developers have relied on for over a decade, making it costly to switch to a competitor's chips. The biggest risk is that customers could develop their own custom AI chips or that demand for AI infrastructure could slow, reducing orders.

NVIDIA Corporation is growing revenue at 73% year-over-year. The Winston Score penalises unprofitable companies, but revenue at this pace tells a different story — this is a company still in "build mode."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
