January 28, 2024 calculation

Operating profit margin = Operating income (ttm) ÷ Revenue (ttm)
= $32,971,000K ÷ $60,922,000K
= 54.12%

NVIDIA Corp's operating profit margin has shown fluctuating trends over the past eight quarters. The margin has ranged from a low of 17.37% in Q1 2024 to a high of 54.12% in Q4 2024, indicating significant variability in the company's ability to generate profits from its core operations during this period.

The highest margin in Q4 2024 suggests that NVIDIA was able to effectively control its operating expenses and generate substantial profits relative to its revenue during that quarter. This could be attributed to strong sales performance, cost management strategies, or efficiency improvements in operations.

On the other hand, the low operating profit margin in Q1 2024 indicates that NVIDIA faced challenges in controlling costs or generating sufficient profits from its operations during that period. This could be due to increased expenses, pricing pressures, lower sales volumes, or other operational difficulties.

Overall, NVIDIA's operating profit margin performance demonstrates the company's ability to adapt to changing market conditions and operational challenges, highlighting the importance of effective cost management and revenue generation strategies in maintaining profitability in the dynamic technology industry.
