AI Earnings: 2 Key Reports to Watch
The 2025 Q2 earnings season keeps chugging along this week, with a notable number of companies on the reporting docket. Among the bunch are several Mag 7 members, with several other heavyweights also reporting. But concerning notable companies reporting in the coming weeks, Palantir PLTR and NVIDIA NVDA reflect highly consequential reports concerning the AI frenzy. Both stocks have enjoyed stellar growth over recent periods thanks to the red-hot demand, with many expecting the upcoming releases to further confirm the bullish trend. For those interested in the AI frenzy, let's take a closer look at what analysts are expecting for each. Palantir Reports August 4th Palantir's latest set of quarterly results continued to impress, with sales climbing 40% year-over-year alongside an upgrade to its current-year sales outlook. Massive growth has been driven by red-hot demand that's seemingly only continuing to grow. As shown below, the company's sales growth has been outstanding over recent periods, a reflection of the red-hot demand PLTR has been enjoying. Importantly, customer count grew nearly 40% year-over-year and 8% sequentially. Palantir also booked a record U.S. commercial total contract value throughout the period ($810 million), which grew a staggering 180% year-over-year. Customer growth will be the key metric to watch for the release, one that PLTR has consistently positively shocked on over recent periods. Analysts have been silent concerning their EPS and sales revisions, with expectations unchanged over recent months. The AI-favorite is expected to see 55% EPS growth on 38% higher sales. NVIDIA Reports August 27th Unrelenting demand for its Data Center products has provided NVIDIA with unprecedented growth over recent years. The AI favorite again came out with rock-solid results in its latest quarterly print, with Data Center sales of $39.1 billion climbing 73% from the $22.5 billion print in the same period last year. Below is a chart illustrating NVIDIA's Data Center sales on a quarterly basis. While the results themselves will (unsurprisingly) be the focal point of the release, commentary surrounding upcoming periods and new product launches will be a key post-earnings factor concerning share movement. EPS revisions for NVDA's print have remained stagnant over recent months, with the current $1.00 Zacks Consensus EPS estimate suggesting 47% year-over-year growth. The $48.5 billion expected in sales is up a marginal 0.9% over the same timeframe, reflecting sizable YoY growth of 52%. Bottom Line The 2025 Q2 earnings cycle continues to roll along, with this week's reporting docket notably stacked. And concerning the broader AI frenzy, reports from NVIDIA NVDA and Palantir PLTR will be key in getting a better gauge on the current AI landscape. Zacks' Research Chief Names "Stock Most Likely to Double" Our team of experts has just released the 5 stocks with the greatest probability of gaining +100% or more in the coming months. Of those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian highlights the one stock set to climb highest. This top pick is a little-known satellite-based communications firm. Space is projected to become a trillion dollar industry, and this company's customer base is growing fast. Analysts have forecasted a major revenue breakout in 2025. Of course, all our elite picks aren't winners but this one could far surpass earlier Zacks' Stocks Set to Double like Hims & Hers Health, which shot up +209%.

Amazon tumbles after cloud computing growth disappoints investors
shares fell seven per cent on Friday as the tech giant's results fanned investor fears its cloud unit was falling behind Microsoft and Alphabet in the artificial intelligence race. shares fell seven per cent on Friday as the tech giant's results fanned investor fears its cloud unit was falling behind Microsoft and Alphabet in the artificial intelligence race. Amazon Web Services, long the cloud-computing market leader, edged past Wall Street estimates for June-quarter revenue on Thursday with a 17.5 per cent increase, but it widely lagged the 39 per cent growth seen at Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud's 32 per cent gain. That disappointing growth came even as Amazon shelled out US$31.4 billion in capital expenditure, more than rivals, and suggested it would spend a more-than-estimated $118 billion for the year. Google and Microsoft also pledged higher spending, but were rewarded from investors on signs AI was already becoming a major growth driver across their businesses, justifying the bill. The companies have been spending billions of dollars on datacenters and cutting-edge chips that they say are necessary to overcome supply constraints hampering their efforts to capitalize on soaring demand for AI services. 'The spotlight was firmly on AWS and it didn't quite shine as brightly as expected,' said Matt Britzman, senior equity analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown. 'While Microsoft and Alphabet have already shown strong momentum in cloud growth, AWS wasn't the knockout many wanted to see.' Growing expenses have also started to take a bite out of AWS's margins, the business that has long been Amazon's profit engine, accounting for about 60 per cent of its operating income. AWS margins contracted to 32.9 per cent during the quarter, their lowest level since the final quarter of 2023, and Amazon also issued a current-quarter total operating income forecast that was lower than market estimates. CEO Andy Jassy told analysts on a post-earnings call that it was still 'very early days' in the AI race and that Amazon's massive cloud business, much larger than rivals, was primed to perform well once the AI capacity constraints start to ease. The stock, now down 1.5 per cent for the year, was at $216.2 in late morning trading. The drop was set to erase around $170 billion from Amazon's market value, if the losses hold. The company still trades at a relatively high premium, with a 12-month forward price-to-earnings ratio of 33.87, compared with Microsoft's 34.19 and Alphabet's 18.64, according to data compiled by LSEG. Retail resilience At least 30 analysts raised their price targets on the stock, while three lowered, giving it a median view of $260. Some of that analyst confidence comes from the strong performance of Amazon's retail business, which has remained resilient in the face of Trump administration tariffs that have hobbled many retailers and their supply chains. Amazon has yet to see a drop in demand or a notable rise in prices in the first half of the year, Jassy said, as its online store sales jumped a better-than-expected 11 per cent in the second quarter. Manufacturers and suppliers have shouldered most of the tariff impact so far, analysts said, but noted that much of the inventory Amazon sold in the quarter arrived in the preceding three-month period. 'If Amazon's retail business was a standalone entity, it would be trading dramatically higher following the near-perfect results,' said Michael Morton, analyst at MoffettNathanson. 'Unfortunately, as we all know, the success of the retail business is not what's going to matter in the near term for Amazon's stock price.'

Prediction: Nvidia Stock Will Soar in the Second Half of 2025, Thanks to This Incredible News From Microsoft and Meta Platforms
Key Points Artificial intelligence (AI) is the driving force behind Nvidia's blistering growth, but investors have been wary about the future of AI. Meta Platforms and Microsoft just reported blockbuster results, which illustrate the staying power of AI. There's another catalyst that could fuel Nvidia's run in the second half of the year. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has been the poster child for the AI revolution, with the stock on a marathon that has increased its stock price by more than 1,000% since the dawn of artificial intelligence (AI) in early 2023. In recent months, however, investors have been more circumspect, plagued by a moratorium on AI chip sales to China and the potential impact of broad-based tariffs on the economic landscape. Furthermore, the ebbs and flows of AI adoption have some investors concerned that the low-hanging fruit has been picked and the AI revolution will stall. Experts generally agree that the adoption of AI, in some form or fashion, will continue well into the next decade, but investors have been seeking reassurance. Two of Nvidia's largest customers released their respective quarterly financial reports after the market close on Wednesday. Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) and Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) each reported blockbuster results, providing compelling evidence that the AI revolution is on track. The results speak for themselves Nvidia is scheduled to report the results of its fiscal 2026 second quarter (ended July 27) after the market close on Aug. 27. In the meantime, shareholders are looking for signs that the adoption of AI continues unfettered. Microsoft and Meta just provided exactly what investors were looking for. As the world's largest software company and second largest cloud infrastructure provider, Microsoft holds a unique place in the tech landscape. Furthermore, the company was quick to recognize the AI opportunity and pivoted to position itself accordingly. As a result, Microsoft has been reaping the rewards by providing a growing number of AI solutions to its vast customer base. During its fiscal 2025 fourth quarter (ended June 30), Microsoft generated revenue of $76.4 billion, rising 18% year over year. At the same time, its diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $3.65 climbed 24%. For context, analysts' consensus estimates were calling for revenue of $73.9 billion and EPS of $3.37, so Microsoft cleared both hurdles with ease. The results were fueled by Azure Cloud, as its growth rate accelerated to 39%, well ahead of the 34% expected by Wall Street. CEO Satya Nadella left no doubt about what was driving the results. "Cloud and AI is the driving force of business transformation across every industry and sector," he said. He went on to note that Azure Cloud surpassed $75 billion in revenue, fueled by strong demand for AI. Meta Platforms was also quick to recognize the opportunity afforded by AI, tapping into its wellspring of data to create its homegrown Llama AI models. The company has been spending heavily to capitalize on the AI windfall. In the second quarter, Meta delivered revenue of $47.5 billion, up 22% year over year, resulting in EPS of $7.14, a 38% increase. The consensus on Wall Street was revenue of $44.83 billion and EPS of $5.89, so Meta sailed past expectations with plenty of room to spare. In prepared remarks, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said, "The strong performance this quarter is largely thanks to AI unlocking greater efficiency and gains across our ads system," noting these systems drove "roughly 5% more ad conversions on Instagram and 3% on Facebook." It also wasn't surprising that AI is helping its social media platforms stay relevant. "AI is significantly improving our ability to show people content that they're going to find interesting and useful," Zuckerberg said. Nvidia's future looks bright It has been abundantly clear that Nvidia's meteoric rise is the direct result of the accelerating adoption of AI. Once known primarily for its gaming expertise, Nvidia's graphics processing units are now the gold standard for processing AI -- which is evident in its recent results. In Nvidia's fiscal 2026 first quarter, revenue of $44 billion surged 69% year over year, but that only tells part of the story. The company's data center segment, which includes AI chips, soared 69% to a record $39 billion, now accounting for 89% of Nvidia's considerable revenue. That helps explain why investors are so keen to understand whether AI has room to run. The future looks bright, as Nvidia is guiding for second-quarter revenue of $45 billion, or year-over-year growth of 50%. One of the biggest factors weighing on Nvidia in recent months is the Trump Administration's moratorium on H20 AI chip sales to China. CEO Jensen Huang recently announced that the company had filed an application that would permit Nvidia to resume selling those chips in China, and was assured that those licenses would be granted. The company took a $4.5 billion charge related to its H20 chips in the first quarter, but analysts estimate Nvidia could now generate additional sales of $15 billion in the back half of 2025. Furthermore, while Nvidia keeps its customer list under lock and key, analysts with Bloomberg and Barclays Research have read the tea leaves and concluded that Nvidia's four biggest customers -- responsible for nearly 53% of its revenue -- are: Microsoft: 15% Meta Platforms: 14% Alphabet: 12% Amazon: 11% The robust results generated by Microsoft and Meta Platforms offer clear and compelling evidence that the adoption of AI continues unfettered, and as two of Nvidia's biggest customers, that bodes well for the company's ongoing success. Finally, at just 31 times next year's expected earnings, Nvidia stock is reasonably priced. That's why I predict Nvidia stock will probably soar for the rest of 2025.
