Outlook
Our outlook for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 is as follows:
-- Revenue is expected to be between $1.025 billion and $1.175 billion.
-- GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be flat relative to
the prior quarter, 52.9 percent and 53.1 percent, respectively.
-- GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $400 million;
non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately $359
million.
-- GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates are expected to be approximately 20
percent and 19 percent, respectively, plus or minus one percentage
point. This estimate excludes any discrete tax events that may occur
during the quarter, which, if realized, may increase or decrease our
actual fourth quarter GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates. If the U.S.
research tax credit is reinstated into tax law, we estimate our annual
effective tax rate for the fiscal year 2013 to be approximately 16
percent.
Depreciation and amortization for the fourth quarter is estimated to be approximately $58 million to $60 million. Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $60 million to $70 million.
Diluted shares for the fourth quarter are expected to be approximately 629 million.
Dividend and Share-Repurchase Program
The quarterly dividend of 7.5 cents per share, 30 cents on an annual basis, is equivalent to a yield of about 2.4 percent, based on the Nov. 7 closing price of $12.61. It will be payable on Dec. 14, 2012 to all shareholders of record on Nov. 23, 2012.
Since NVIDIA initiated its repurchase program in August 2004, NVIDIA has spent $1.46 billion to repurchase 90.9 million shares of its common stock. NVIDIA is authorized, subject to certain specifications, to spend up to an additional $1.24 billion repurchasing shares of its common stock.
Any future repurchases would be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or in structured share-repurchase programs, and may be made from time to time or in one or more larger repurchases. The program will be conducted in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 10b-18 and applicable legal requirements and shall be subject to market conditions and other factors. The repurchases would be funded from available working capital.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2013 were $3.43 billion.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2013 and Recent Highlights:
-- Microsoft launched its NVIDIA Tegra(R) 3-based Surface RT to
critical acclaim.
-- NVIDIA's new energy-efficient Kepler(TM) GPU architecture continued
to make excellent headway:
-- Kepler-based gaming was extended to new, lower price po
ints with
the launch of the GeForce(R) 660 Ti, GeForce GTX 660, GeForce
GTX 650 Ti and GeForce GTX 650.
-- Kepler made further inroads in supercomputing, as Oak Ridge
National Laboratory announced that it had completed Titan, the
world's fastest open-science supercomputer. Titan gets 90 percent
of its processing power from 18,688 NVIDIA Tesla(R) GPUs.
-- Kepler moved further into Apple's lineup, with the NVIDIA
Quadro(R) K5000 for Mac Pro users.
-- NVIDIA launched the VGX(TM) K2 GPU, also based on the Kepler
GPU, for cloud-based workstation graphics.

Non-GAAP Measures To supplement NVIDIA's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income tax expense, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income, or earnings, per share, and free cash flows. In order for NVIDIA's investors to be better able to compare its current results with those of previous periods, the company has shown a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, other acquisition-related costs, a non-recurring contribution expense, and the associated tax impact of these items, where applicable. Free cash flow is calculated as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and intangible assets. NVIDIA believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user's overall understanding of the company's historical financial performance. The presentation of the company's non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
