Howard Liuin BeijingPublished: 9:32am, 21 May 2026Updated: 11:51am, 21 May 2026Nvidia has not generated any revenue from H200 chip sales to China and remains uncertain whether the product will be allowed into the country, the US chip giant said on Wednesday, underscoring how geopolitics continues to cloud its access to one of the world’s largest AI markets even as global demand for its data centre processors surged to a record high.

While Washington has approved licences for H200 shipments to China-based customers, Colette Kress, Nvidia’s executive vice-president and chief financial officer, said on a post-earnings call it had “yet to generate any revenue, and we are uncertain whether any imports will be allowed into the country”.

Consistent with the previous quarter, Nvidia did not include any China data centre compute revenue in its outlook for the current quarter.

That highlights the increasingly complex position facing Nvidia, which remains the world’s dominant supplier of advanced artificial intelligence chips but has been caught between United States’ export controls and China’s push to strengthen domestic semiconductor alternatives.

Nvidia’s financial performance nevertheless beat expectations. The Santa Clara-based company reported revenue of US$81.6 billion for the quarter ended April 26, up 85 per cent from a year earlier and a 20 per cent increase from the previous quarter.
