Nvidia (NVDA) Stock After New SharonAI Data Center Deal Is The AI Leader Still Undervalued
NVIDIA Corporation NVDA | 0.00 |
NVIDIA (NVDA) just signed a six year compute collaboration with SharonAI Holdings to support 72 megawatts of new AI data center capacity in Australia, using its DSX AI factory design and Grace Blackwell GB300 GPUs.
NVIDIA’s recent string of AI factory and data center agreements has kept the story in focus even as momentum has cooled. The 30 day share price return is down 8.93%, but the 5 year total shareholder return is above 10x, and the latest 90 day share price return of 11.99% points to interest that has eased rather than disappeared.

Valuation is where opinions split. NVIDIA trades around $205.19, the 30 day return has declined 8.93% while the 5 year total shareholder return is above 10x and analysts see about 46% upside to a US$298.93 target. This raises the question: is this a genuine opportunity, or is the market already paying up for years of AI factory growth to come?
Most Popular Narrative: 39.6% Undervalued
On the most followed narrative, NVIDIA’s fair value of $339.90 sits well above the last close of $205.19, which naturally pulls attention to the assumptions behind that gap.
$400b annual revenue assumes Nvidia continues to be dominant in GPU design and AI software stack. Successful competition from AMD, Intel, or a Chinese firm could undermine this.
Uptake of an open-source, cheaper, or better platform than Nvidia's CUDA would heavily undermine Nvidia's moat and enable any sizeable firm to directly engage semiconductor manufacturers, such as TSMC, to produce their own chips, stealing away Nvidia's high margin products (similar to what Apple did with its M-Series chips).
The narrative, according to KiwiInvest, leans on very high AI data center revenue, premium margins and a future earnings multiple that assumes this dominance holds. Want to see which specific growth, margin and valuation levers are doing the heavy lifting in that $339.90 figure, and how they stack against today’s $205.19 share price?
Result: Fair Value of $339.90 (UNDERVALUED)
However, this depends on Nvidia maintaining its grip on AI GPUs and CUDA, while also avoiding tighter regulation or power constraints that could slow data center spending.
Another View: Cash Flows Paint A Tighter Picture
While the community narrative points to a $339.90 fair value and a 39.6% undervaluation, the SWS DCF model comes out more cautious. The model suggests that future cash flows indicate a value of $195.79, which is slightly below the current $205.19 price. Which signal do you consider more informative, the story or the cash flows?
