TMTB: NVDA PANW First Take

NVDA flat: Looks fine…Q3 Solid but DC a little light of bogeys while Q4 Revs slightly light of $38B bogey coming in at $37.5B +/- 2%

Q4 rev guide $37.5B lighter than buyside bogey at $38B but better than street at $37B

Overall looks fine and slightly ho-hum…Everyone will look forward as BW ramps. Don’t think anyone is changing their thesis on a $500M miss to buyside bogeys here, especially as guide will be seen as conservative during product transition.
