Earnings Scheduled For February 27, 2025

NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) reported fourth-quarter revenue of $39.3 billion, representing an extraordinary growth trajectory that has seen quarterly revenue multiply nearly eight times in just five years, according to data shared Wednesday by The Kobeissi Letter.
What Happened: The chipmaker&#8217;s daily revenue reached $427 million throughout the fourth quarter, with data center sales—primarily from AI-focused GPUs—surging 93% year-over-year to $35.6 billion, now accounting for over 90% of total revenue.

Despite beating analyst expectations with earnings per share of $0.89 versus $0.84 expected and revenue exceeding forecasts by $1 billion, NVDA shares traded slightly lower after the announcement, continuing a pattern of muted post-earnings reactions.
Analyst John Kicklighter noted that the stock exhibited &#8220;lots of volatility, but no clear direction,&#8221; with a range of approximately 8% from the spot relative to Nvidia.

Why It Matters: CEO Jensen Huang highlighted increasing computational demands in AI, saying that next-generation models require &#8220;100 times more compute&#8221; than earlier versions. He specifically cited DeepSeek&#8217;s R1, OpenAI&#8217;s GPT-4, and xAI&#8217;s Grok 3 as examples of models using <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43995515/jensen-huang-says-deepseek-was-fantastic-next-gen-models-demand-100x-more-compute-as-nvidia-smashes-earnings-records">intensive reasoning processes</a>.
&#8220;DeepSeek was fantastic,&#8221; Huang said, praising its open-source reasoning model despite the company&#8217;s stock dropping 17% in January over concerns that DeepSeek had found ways to achieve better AI performance with lower infrastructure costs.
Nvidia forecasts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43991607/nvidia-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-demand-for-blackwell-is-amazing">first-quarter revenue</a> of $43 billion, topping estimates of $41.75 billion. Huang says Blackwell AI supercomputers saw &#8220;billions in sales&#8221; in their first quarter as the company ramped up &#8220;massive-scale production.&#8221;
NVDA currently has a consensus price target of $172.28 based on 40 analysts, with recent targets from Rosenblatt, Morgan Stanley, and Tigress Financial implying a potential 52.59% upside.

Nvidia's Q4 Revenue Surges Over 78%, Nearly 8x Higher Than 5 Years Ago: Analysts Debate Stock's Next Move As Jensen Huang Says Blackwell Production Has Been Ramped Up

The Donald Trump administration is contemplating the withdrawal of a $590 million contract previously granted to&nbsp;Moderna Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRNA#NASDAQ">MRNA</a>) by the Biden administration. This contract was intended for the production of a bird flu vaccine.
What Happened: The U.S. health officials are currently scrutinizing Moderna&#8217;s avian flu vaccine contract as part of a broader review of government expenditure on messenger RNA-based vaccines, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43913228/trump-team-weighs-pulling-funding-for-moderna-bird-flu-vaccine">Bloomberg</a> reported. The contract, awarded during the final days of the Biden administration, shot up Moderna&#8217;s stock within two days of the announcement on January 17.
A spokesperson from Robert F. Kennedy Jr.-led Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) communicated that the review was necessitated by &#8220;four years of the Biden administration's failed oversight.&#8221; The spokesperson acknowledged the criticality of readiness for the pandemic but also underscored the need for careful examination of vaccine production contracts.
Moderna, having successfully completed an initial trial of the bird flu vaccine last year,&nbsp;was preparing for a&nbsp;large-scale final-stage trial. However, the absence of funding might impede the trial&#8217;s progress. The company has been grappling with the need to identify new revenue streams as the sales of its COVID-19 vaccine decline and it maintains significant investments in its pipeline.
The contract was hastily approved amid apprehensions that the Trump administration might be less inclined to finance vaccine manufacturers. Moderna has also been involved in a patent dispute with the National Institutes of Health regarding its vaccine.

Why It Matters: The reconsideration of funding comes at a time when the Trump administration has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43998434/trump-team-commits-1-billion-to-combat-bird-flu-lower-egg-prices-hopefully-by-summer-says-usda">committed $1 billion </a>to fight bird flu and bring down the rising egg prices. Notably, the commitment also includes an allocation of $100 million for vaccine research, though the poultry industry is divided on its implications. 
This development also coincides with a phase when influential personalities like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43913228/bill-gates-says-next-pandemic-can-emerge-anywhere-and-the-world-isnt-prepared-we-cant-afford-to-get-caught-flat-footed-again">Bill Gates</a> have warned about the potential for new pandemics and the world&#8217;s lack of preparedness. Gates has emphasized that we cannot afford to be caught off guard again, particularly after the devastating impact of COVID-19.
Kennedy, known for his vaccine skepticism and conspiracy theories, has extended his influence globally, undermining health initiatives like vaccination and AIDS prevention, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/30/world/africa/rfk-jr-kennedy-international-work-public-health-policies.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>. Through his nonprofit, Children&#8217;s Health Defense, Kennedy has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42254495/trumps-hhs-pick-rfk-jr-has-a-long-history-of-challenging-global-health-policies" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">disrupted public health efforts</a> in countries like Uganda and South Africa. He has also questioned the World Health Organization and its programs for fueling global health conspiracies.
Moderna stock has plunged over 65% during the last 12 months as per data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) YouTube revealed that it has reached over 1 billion monthly active viewers of podcast content, thus outperforming Spotify Technology SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>).
What Happened: In a blog post published on Thursday, YouTube said it is now the most popular service for podcast listening in the U.S. It added that last year, viewers spent over 400 million hours each month watching podcasts on living room devices.
YouTube&#8217;s distinctive search and recommendation features have simplified the process for users to discover new podcasts. Additionally, the platform has broadened its&nbsp;revenue-sharing program, the YouTube&nbsp;Partner Program, to accommodate more podcasters.
Research from Edison Podcast Metrics in October indicated that&nbsp;about 31% of weekly podcast&nbsp;listeners in the U.S. favor YouTube, compared to 27% for Spotify and 15% for Apple Podcasts by Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>). This surge in growth occurred after Google Podcasts was discontinued in mid-2024.
Celebrating YouTube&#8217;s 20th anniversary on Feb 11, CEO Neal Mohan pledged to introduce more tools to assist podcasters and enhance monetization for creators. The platform also intends to further simplify podcast discovery for users.

Why It Matters: The platform&#8217;s success in the podcast sector further underscores its growing influence and potential for increased revenue generation. It is noteworthy that with 1 billion monthly podcast listeners, YouTube has surpassed Spotify&#8217;s count of 675 million monthly active users in 2024. 
YouTube recognized podcasts as a trending content format during the pandemic. After investing billions in its podcasting segment, Spotify shut its in-house podcast studio, Studio 4 in 2022 and laid off staff. It was during that time that YouTube started offering up to $300,000 to podcasters as an incentive to produce video versions of their shows, stated Bloomberg.
Meanwhile, YouTube remains an integral part of Google&#8217;s Service segment. During Alphabet&#8217;s fourth quarter results, CEO Sundar Pichai stated, &#8220;Our AI-powered Google Cloud portfolio is seeing stronger customer demand, and YouTube continues to be the leader in streaming watchtime and podcasts.&#8221; Google&#8217;s Service segment contributes over 87% of the company&#8217;s total revenue. 
Needham analysts estimate that based on a sum-of-the-parts valuation,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43506569/alphabet-stock-should-trade-at-a-premium-5-analysts-highlight-ai-capex-how-much-youtube-could-be-worth"> YouTube is worth $666 billion</a>, or around $54 per share in case Alphabet spins off or separates the highly coveted asset.&nbsp;
The expansion of the YouTube Partner Program also indicates a strategic move to attract more creators and diversify content, which could further boost the platform&#8217;s value.

Tesla Inc.

What Happened: &#8220;Exciting things continuing at Giga Texas!,&#8221; Afshar said in a post on X on Tuesday. 
The factory has now been upgraded to produce the company&#8217;s refreshed Model Y, Afshar said. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39245293/elon-musks-boring-company-is-making-a-tunnel-at-giga-texas-for-transporting-cybertrucks">A tunnel</a> runs under the highway to reduce travel by a kilometer from the end of the production line to the logistics yard, he said, while adding that driverless cars have started driving from the factory directly to the specific outbound lane where they will be loaded onto a truck for delivery.
Preparation is also underway for the start of Cybercab volume production at the factory starting in 2026, he said. 
Afshar is a vice president in charge of sales and manufacturing with senior executives in North America and Europe reporting to him, The Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41378568/tesla-promotes-key-executives-and-gives-them-more-responsibilities-in-leadership-shuffle">reported</a> in October.

Why It Matters: Giga Texas is Tesla&#8217;s global headquarters which covers 2500 acres along the Colorado River with over 10 million square feet of factory floor,&nbsp;offering considerable potential for further expansion.
The plant is the manufacturing hub for both Tesla&#8217;s best-selling Model Y SUV as well as its stainless steel Cybertruck. According to Tesla&#8217;s last quarterly report, the company can produce over 250,000 Model Ys in a year and over 125,000 Cybertrucks.
Tesla is also incorporated in Texas. The company&#8217;s stockholders approved the move last year after company CEO Musk soured on Delaware.
&#8220;Texas and Nevada are the best choices for incorporation,&#8221; Musk said earlier this month.

The administration under President Donald Trump is preparing to channel up to $1 billion into measures to counter the persistent bird flu epidemic or avian influenza (HPAI) and augment egg imports, in an attempt to address skyrocketing prices.
What Happened: U.S. Agriculture Secretary&nbsp;Brooke Rollins&nbsp;revealed the funding strategy, which is a response to a three-year bird flu crisis that has led to the demise of&nbsp;approximately 166 million chickens, according to USDA data. The virus has also impacted close to 1,000 dairy herds and infected nearly 70 people, resulting in one reported death since early 2024.
The USDA plans to assign up to $500 million for complimentary biosecurity audits for&nbsp;farms and a sum of $400 million to&nbsp;enhance compensation rates for farmers who need to eliminate their chickens due to the flu, stated Rollins at a state agriculture officials conference. The funding will come from the USDA&#8217;s Commodity Credit Corporation, a discretionary fund accessible to the secretary, explained by Rollins&#8217; chief of staff, Kailee Tkacz Buller, as per Reuters.
Rollins further stated that other strategies include $100 million allocated for vaccine research, efforts to ease regulatory burdens on the egg and chicken industry, and consideration of temporary import solutions.
Although the USDA is contemplating vaccines for chickens, they have not received approval yet. Opinions in the poultry industry are split on this issue due to possible trade impacts. The administration also plans to increase egg imports and reduce exports to strengthen the domestic supply and combat record-high egg prices. Turkey has committed to exporting 15,000 tons of eggs to the U.S. by July, a move expected to substantially boost the nation&#8217;s egg supply.
SEE ALSO: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43980072/theres-no-reason-to-spend-1-trillion-on-the-military-trumps-statement-sends-us-defense-stocks-spiraling-while-europes-surge">&#8216;There&#8217;s No Reason To Spend $1 Trillion On The Military&#8217;—Trump&#8217;s Statement Sends US Defense Stocks Spiraling While Europe&#8217;s Surge</a>
Why It Matters: This move comes in the wake of a recent debate over food affordability solutions, sparked by prominent economic commentator Noah Smith. As egg prices hit record levels, Smith mocked President Donald Trump and suggested <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43905413/trump-economy-as-egg-prices-soar-economist-mocks-shift-to-chickpeas">alternatives to eggs</a>, such as chickpeas. 
High egg prices have been a key cause of the inflation in the country. The most recent monthly consumer price index revealed that the average cost of a dozen Grade A eggs in U.S. cities rose to $4.95 in January. Specialty options, like organic and cage-free eggs, come at an even higher price. On Wednesday, the USDA predicted that egg prices, already at record highs, could surge by over 40% in 2025.
The USDA&#8217;s plan to increase egg imports, particularly from Turkey, is expected to alleviate the current egg shortage and stabilize prices.
That being said, Rollins acknowledged, "It's going to take a while to get through, I think in the next month or two, but hopefully by summer.&#8221; Rollins is also confident that the USDA will have sufficient staff to respond to bird flu, despite the DOGE-led federal workforce reductions.
