Nvidia's Rubin Chip Production on Track in Q2, but Rack-Level Cooling Issues Delaying Mass Production, UBS Says

By

Nvidia's (NVDA) Rubin chip and compute board production is on track in the current quarter, but rack-level cooling issues is pushing rack mass production into the September timeframe, which should be offset by robust demand for Blackwell, UBS said in a Wednesday research report.

There is potential for a new share repurchase program commitment of up to $150 billion over the next 12 months, while investors expect a larger dividend commitment in the current quarter, analysts wrote. The company is due to report fiscal Q1 results on May 20.

UBS said it expects 2027 and 2028 EPS of $14.35 and $17.07, respectively, on revenue of $607 billion and $710 billion. For 2026, the brokerage now expects revenue of $400 billion from $393 billion earlier.

The company's GTC messaging regarding system-level design implies that it continues to offer more value to clients as the competitive landscape evolves, according to UBS.

The brokerage said it reiterated its buy rating on the stock and boosted its price target to $275 per share from $245.
