Revenue
Fiscal Year 2012 vs. Fiscal Year 2011
Revenue was $4.00 billion for fiscal year 2012 and $3.54 billion for fiscal year 2011, an increase of 12.8%. A discussion of our revenue results for each
of our reporting segments is as follows:
GPU Business. GPU Business revenue was $2.54 billion for fiscal year 2012 compared to $2.52 billion for fiscal year 2011. The increase is primarily
attributable to revenue from the cross licensing agreement with Intel and increased desktop and notebook product revenue. The increase in desktop and
notebook revenues came from continued market penetration of our Fermi architecture based GPUs. Strength of our Fermi architecture and resultant wins on
the Sandy Bridge platform contributed to increase in notebook revenues. Offsetting these increases were decreases in sales of MCP products as we continued
to phase out our chipset product line. Additionally, memory sales also decreased due to lower sales volume as decreases in market price for memory made it
attractive for add-in card manufacturers to buy memory directly from market rather than from us.
PSB. PSB revenue increased by 5.6% to $864.3 million for fiscal year 2012 as compared to $818.6 million for fiscal year 2011. The average selling
price, or ASP, for workstation products improved due to the recovery of corporate spending following the economic recession that began during fiscal year
2009. Offsetting this was a decrease in our Tesla product revenues from the prior year primarily due to lower sales volume.
CPB. CPB revenue increased by 199.2% to $591.2 million for fiscal year 2012 as compared to $197.6 million for fiscal year 2011 . This increase in
CPB revenue was primarily driven by sales growth from the acceleration of our Tegra 2 smartphone and tablet products in the mobile market and in
embedded product revenues primarily related to the entertainment markets. Revenue from development arrangements and royalties from game console-
related products remained stable in fiscal year 2012 when compared to fiscal year 2011 .
Fiscal Year 2011 vs. Fiscal Year 2010
Revenue was $3.54 billion for fiscal year 2011 and $3.33 billion for fiscal year 2010, an increase of 7%. A discussion of our revenue results for each of
our operating segments is as follows:
