NVIDIA (NVDA) Price Prediction and Forecast

$

0

The artificial intelligence-fueled rally has been the foremost contributor to the major market indices’ sizable gains over the past several years. And one company in particular is at the vanguard: NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA). NVIDIA is the premier manufacturer of components critical to the surge in AI; namely, semiconductors, microchips and graphic processing units (GPUs).

As a result, the Santa Clara, Calif.-based company has seen its stock skyrocket in the recent past. Since the first day the market opened in 2023, shares have gained 764%, and in the decade from August 2014 to August 2024, they are up a preposterous 26,679% . In June 2024, NVIDIA underwent its sixth stock split, further fueling demand for its shares as the company surged upward and is now the second largest by market cap.

Since going public on Jan. 12, 1999, when shares debuted at $12 — or 4 cents on a post-split adjusted basis — the stock has gained 320,644%. That means that a $1,000 investment on the day of the company’s IPO would be worth $3,211,000 today, based on its current share price of $128.44.

Despite those mind-boggling gains, analysts still expect enormous upside potential in the medium and long terms. 24/7 Wall Street has performed analysis to provide prospective investors and current shareholders with an idea of where NVIDIA’s stock might be headed over the course of the next five years.

NVIDIA’s Recent Stock Success

Unless you have been living under a rock, chances are you have caught wind of the very well-documented and rather exponential surge in NVIDIA’s share price since 2022. But before 2022’s price-per-share explosion, it was steadily appreciating as it underwent a series of stock splits.

Year Share Price* Revenue** Net Income**
2014 $0.51 $4.130 $0.588
2015 $0.82 $4.681 $0.800
2016 $2.67 $5.010 $0.929
2017 $4.88 $6.910 $1.851
2018 $3.24 $9.714 $3.085
2019 $5.98 $11.716 $4.143
2020 $13.06 $10.918 $3.580
2021 $29.64 $16.675 $6.277
2022 $14.61 $26.914 $11.259
2023 $49.52 $26.974 $8.366

*Post-split adjusted basis
**Revenue and net income in $billions

Over the course of the last decade, NVIDIA’s revenue grew by more than 553% while its net income increased by just over 1,323%. The company experienced a slight contraction in revenue and net income in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but it rebounded soundly the following year and has continued to steadily grow both metrics since. Meanwhile, shares were able to increase by 9,610% from 2014 to 2023.

As the AI lynchpin looks forward to the second half of the decade, 24/7 Wall Street has identified three key drivers that are likely to impact its growth metrics and stock performance through 2030.

Key Drivers of NVIDIA’s Stock Performance

  1. Stronghold on the GPU Industry: No one makes GPUs like Nvidia makes GPUs, and they industry demanding them is well aware of that. While semiconductor competitors like Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ: AMD) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. (NYSE: TSM) do command some attention in their respective corners of the market, simply comparing the three companies’ market caps demonstrates the discrepancies between NVIDIA and, well, every other company. While Advanced Micro Devices and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing have respectable market caps of $243 billion and $781 billion, respectively, those are dwarfed by NVIDIA’s $3.18 trillion.
  2. Demand From Unrivaled Tech Customers: The company’s primary clientele are the other members of the Magnificent Seven, which are leading the way forward in the AI revolution. In fact, only four Big Tech rival companies — Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL)Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ: META) and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) — account for 40% of NVIDIA’s revenue as they vie with one another to become the front runner of the transition to generative AI.
  3. The AI Trend Is Just Getting Started: According to Grand View Research, the market size of AI in 2023 was $196.63 billion. As large as that seems, it pales in comparison to where the market is headed. From 2024 to 2030, it is expected that the industry will grow at an astounding compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36.6%, with “continuous research and innovation directed by tech giants [that] are driving adoption of advanced technologies in industry verticals, such as automotive, healthcare, retail, finance, and manufacturing,” according to Grand View Research’s report.
