On June 1, HP Inc. rose 5.02% in regular trading, trading at $28.705/share, with trading volume of $296 million. The stock continued to rally on multiple catalysts including a partnership with NVIDIA on its newly launched AI PC processor and strong fiscal Q2 results.
NVIDIA officially unveiled its RTX Spark processor designed for AI agents at the Taipei Computex, marking its entry into the personal PC processor market. HP is among the first hardware partners and plans to launch notebooks powered by the chip this fall, targeting the high-end AI computing segment. Meanwhile, HP's previously reported fiscal Q2 results showed adjusted EPS of $0.86, significantly beating the consensus estimate of $0.71, while revenue grew 9.2% year-over-year to $14.4 billion. Approximately one-third of PC shipments last quarter were AI-capable models. Management also noted that roughly 30% of users remain on Windows 10, suggesting substantial untapped refresh demand ahead. Multiple investment banks raised their price targets, with JPMorgan moving to $26 from $22 and Citi to $25 from $20. However, the company cautioned that rising memory costs will pressure margins through year-end.
