Preview: NVIDIA to Release First Quarter Financial Results this Week, Revenue Beats Expectations Solidly
NVIDIA is scheduled to release its Q1 FY2027 earnings report after U.S. markets close this Wednesday (early Thursday morning Beijing time), followed by an accompanying earnings call.
Wall Street consensus projections peg the chipmaker’s quarterly revenue at roughly $78–79 billion, representing a ~78% year-over-year surge, with non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS) landing around $1.77—marking a material jump from the same period last year. Key highlights to watch for in the results include robust shipments of NVIDIA’s Blackwell platform and sustained strong demand for its data center solutions.
Analysts note that if NVIDIA’s actual earnings and second-quarter guidance again top consensus estimates, its stock price looks set to keep climbing. Conversely, any underperformance relative to expectations—given the stock’s lofty valuation—could spark volatility, triggering ripple effects across global AI-linked assets. Per Bitget market data, NVIDIA’s current market cap stands at a record $5.46

The U.S. Bitcoin ATM operator Bitcoin Depot has announced bankruptcy and delisting.
May 18 — U.S. Bitcoin ATM operator Bitcoin Depot (Nasdaq: BTM) has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, which the company says will let it wind down operations and sell off assets in an orderly fashion.
Bitcoin blamed the move on a rapidly shifting regulatory landscape: states have stepped up compliance rules, imposed transaction limits on crypto ATMs, some regions have banned or restricted its operations entirely, and the firm faces mounting litigation and enforcement pressure. Those issues have made its core business model unsustainable.
Founded in 2016, Bitcoin Depot was once the largest crypto ATM operator in North America — and is now officially exiting the market.

South Korea's Financial Services Commission is reviewing whether K Bank's indirect ownership of approximately 6.55% of Dunamu shares constitutes a violation.
On May 18, South Korea’s Financial Services Commission (FSC) Virtual Asset Department is reviewing whether KEB Hana Bank’s acquisition of Kakao Investment violates the "Financial and Virtual Asset Separation" rule. KEB Hana indirectly holds roughly 6.55% of Dunamu—the parent company of crypto exchange Upbit.
The FSC has clarified that it applies the same review standards to indirect investments, stressing the rule has not been relaxed. The deal could be scrapped if it is deemed non-compliant.
The separation rule has been enforced via administrative guidance since 2017 to insulate financial institutions from virtual asset risks. Currently, no specific law codifies the rule, but it may be incorporated into South Korea’s upcoming digital asset legislation.
