2026년 2월 26일 · Unknown · financial · 출처 Yahoo Finance

Fourth quarter earnings season is entering its final stretch.

Earnings from Nvidia (NVDA) marked the final company among the "Magnificent Seven" tech stocks to report quarterly results.

This report offered a crucial update on how demand for its high-tech AI chips — a big part of the hundreds of billions of dollars its Big Tech peers are spending on AI investments — continues to shape up.

Other key results this week include reports from Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) and Paramount Skydance (PSKY), with the latter currently locked in a duel with Netflix to acquire the former.

Salesforce (CRM), Home Depot (HD), and Lowe's (LOW) will also be among the notable companies expected to report in the coming week.LIVE223 updates

Nvidia CEO: 'We are close' to finalizing agreement with OpenAI

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the company is "close" to finalizing its agreement with OpenAI (OPAI.PVT)

"We continue to work with OpenAI toward a partnership agreement, and believe we are close," Huang said. "We are thrilled with our ongoing partnership with OpenAI, a once-in-a-generation company we've had the pleasure of partnering with since their first days."

In September 2025, Nvidia said it planned to invest $100 billion in OpenAI to support artificial intelligence infrastructure. But in early February, Huang said that the $100 billion was “never a commitment,” and a few weeks later, the Financial Times reported that the company was close to finalizing a $30 billion deal to replace the $100 billion one.

On the earnings call, Nvidia executives touted that "just about every startup in the world is working on Nvidia's ecosystem." The company has also struck partnerships with rival models, including Anthropic's Claude and Google's Gemini. Wed, February 25, 2026 at 10:25 PM UTC

Nvidia says it hasn't sold any H200 chips to Chinese firms yet

Nvidia's (NVDA) CFO Colette Kress confirmed a report earlier this week that it has not yet sold any of its second-most-powerful chips to China.

"While small amounts of H200 products for China-based customers were approved by the US government, we have yet to generate any revenue, and we do not know whether any imports will be allowed into China," Kress said on the earnings call.

That was in line with what a Commerce Department official said at a congressional hearing on Tuesday.

President Trump gave Nvidia the green light to sell H200 chips to China last month. In late January, Beijing reportedly gave three of China's largest tech companies, ByteDance, Alibaba (BABA, 9988.HK), and Tencent (0700.HK, TCEHY), approval to purchase more than ‌400,000 H200 chips.

Nvidia CFO calls out hyperscaler spend on earnings call

Nvidia's earnings call is underway. You can listen to it live here.

CFO Colette Kress called out that the hyperscalers — Big Tech firms like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), and Meta (META) that provide large-scale cloud services — continue to have a strong appetite for Nvidia's data center chips.

"Analysts expectations for 2026 capex across the top five cloud providers and hyperscalers, who collectively account for a little over 50% of our data center revenue, are up nearly $120 billion since the start of the year and approaching $700 billion," Nvidia CFO Colette Kress said on the earnings call. "We continue to expect the transition of classic data center workloads to GPU-accelerated computing and the use of AI to enhance today's hyperscale workloads and contribute toward roughly half of our long-term opportunity."
