“NVIDIA delivered an outstanding quarter, with record revenue, record gross margin, and record net income. These results reflect the growing importance of the GPU as well as great execution across the company,” said Jen-Hsun Huang, president and CEO of NVIDIA. “Our ongoing strategy to extend the reach of the GPU is paying off. There is a fast-growing universe of applications that rely on the processing capability of the GPU, from 3D design and styling tools, video and photo editing software, 3D maps, and video games, to the user interfaces of the Mac and Vista. The GPU can surely enhance the computing experience for everyone, from artists, engineers, and scientists, to gamers and everyday PC users.”
“As the leading and only dedicated GPU company in the world, our opportunity has never been more exciting as the number of applications and digital devices that benefit from the GPU continues to grow,” Mr. Huang added.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2008 Highlights:
· | The GeForce® desktop and notebook product lines each achieved record revenue. The desktop GPU product line grew 37 percent year-over-year, and the notebook GPU product line grew 129 percent from last year. |
· | NVIDIA continued to capture leading share in five GPU categories, according to Mercury Research: |
o | Total Standalone – 66 percent |

The new GeForce 8M Series GPUs are now available on the new Santa Rosa platform from top PC OEMs such as Acer, Apple, ASUS, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba. The two most notable design wins are the new Lenovo ThinkPad T-Series, NVIDIA’s first ever with Lenovo ThinkPad, and the new Apple MacBook Pro notebooks. |
· | In June, NVIDIA launched the Tesla™ product line, its entry into the high-performance computing industry. HPC Wire, the most recognized and accessed news and information site covering the entire ecosystem of high productivity computing, named the Tesla product line as one of the most significant launches in the HPC industry in the first half of 2007. The Tesla family consists of the C870 GPU Computing Processor, the D870 Deskside Supercomputer, and the S870 1U Computing Server. |

This is the third consecutive year in which an nForce product has been selected as the Dream Machine motherboard of choice. Maximum PC, the number one magazine for home computing enthusiasts, chose the nForce 650i SLI motherboard because of its over-clocking ability with quad-core CPUs and SLI technology support. |
· | NVIDIA introduced an entirely new line of G8X-based next-generation professional notebook GPUs – the NVIDIA Quadro® FX 1600M, 570M, and 360M products. Each features the Unified Shader Architecture, Shader Model 4.0, and GPU Computing capabilities. |

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income presented in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted net income per share. In order for our investors to be better able to compare our current results with those of previous periods, we have shown a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation, a non-recurring credit associated with the net cumulative impact of estimating forfeitures as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R, and the associated tax impact, where applicable. We believe the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user's overall understanding of our historical financial performance. The presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
