Nvidia Returned a Record $26 Billion to Shareholders. Here's Why That Matters.

Nvidia returned a record $26 billion to shareholders in fiscal Q2 2027, including a 25-fold increase in its quarterly dividend to $0.25 per share. The company plans to return at least 50% of free cash flow through buybacks and dividends going forward. With analysts projecting free cash flow to reach $441 billion by fiscal 2029, Nvidia's dividend could potentially triple over the next three years, positioning it as a compelling dividend growth stock despite strong ongoing revenue growth.
