Nvidia Announces $235 Billion Share Repurchase Plan by January 2028
Nvidia has authorized a massive share repurchase plan, adding $150 billion to its existing buyback program for a total of $235 billion. The company plans to complete the buybacks before the end of January 2028 and is already returning significant cash to shareholders through dividends and stock purchases. With data center sales surging due to AI demand, Nvidia's free cash flow has grown substantially, allowing it to increase capital returns even as revenue continues to rise rapidly. The company’s CFO stated that the higher rate of capital return will be a long-term strategy, with plans to reinvest only what is necessary for strategic purposes. Free cash flow is expected to grow significantly in 2028 due to strong operating leverage and high-margin performance. To meet its buyback target within five quarters, Nvidia’s quarterly repurchase amount must more than double next year. Investors are evaluating whether this aggressive capital return strategy makes the stock a compelling investment opportunity.
