Valuation

Earnings History (3 years)

It is important to look at a companies earnings history to see not only if they are profitable, but if their earnings are growing.
As you can see from the chart above, NVDA's earnings have increased for the past three years, this is a positive sign for the stock.
8
Financial Health
What is the current state of the company's financial situation?

We measure the health of a company based on how profitable they are and their ability to cover both their short-term and long-term debts. The key indicators that we use are the Operating Margin, Quick Ratio, and Debt-to-Equity ratio relative to the companies peers

Operational Margin 0.6317

The operating margin measures how much profit a company makes after it spends money on wages, materials or other administrative expenses but before interest and taxes. It is a good representation of how efficiently a company is able to generate profit from its core operations.

Quick Ratio 3.6049

The quick ratio measures how much of a company's debt, that is due in less than 1 year, can be covered using its cash equivalents, marketable securities, and money that is currently owed to them (accounts receivables).

A company with a quick ratio of less than 1.00 does not, in many cases, have the capital on hand to meet its short-term obligations if they were all due at once, while a quick ratio greater than one indicates the company has the financial resources to remain solvent in the short term.

Debt-to-Equity 0.3554

Debt-to-equity is calculated by dividing a company's total liabilities by its shareholders equity. It is a measure of the degree to which a company is financing its operations through debt versus wholly owned funds. Generally speaking, a D/E ratio below 1.0 would be seen as relatively safe, whereas ratios of 2.0 or higher would be considered risky.

The chart above shows NVIDIA (NVDA) operating margin, quick ratio, and debt-to-equity ratio compared to its peers. The black markers represent the peer averages for each ratio and the blue bars represent NVIDIA (NVDA) ratio values.

Dividend
There are few things we like to see when evaluating the quality of a company's dividend history and future

Ideally, we would like to see a company have a long history of consistently high dividend payouts that have grown at a consistent rate. From here we want to be confident that this sort of dividend growth and consistency will persist into the future.

The chart below shows the historical trend in NVIDIA (NVDA) dividend yield on an annual basis.

-95.13%
NVIDIA (NVDA) saw a decrease in it's dividend yield since 2021
10
Past Performance
How has NVIDIA (NVDA) performed over the past 5 years?

The two main factors that we consider when analyzing past performance is overall return and volatility

Using these two metrics, we can determine if this stock gave its investors enough return for the risk that they took on by owning it. This is measured by the sharpe ratio, which has been used as a primary measure of risk/reward trade-off for almost 60 years.

This ratio can be interpreted as the amount of return an investor has received for the amount of risk that they took on by owning the stock over that timeframe.

NVIDIA (NVDA) sharpe ratio over the past 5 years is 3.2481 which is considered to be above average compared to the peer average of 0.8372
