In its most recent 13-F disclosure, Nvidia (NVDA, Financials) said it has sold its interests in autonomous robotics business Serve Robotics (SERV, Financials), medical imaging company Nano-X Imaging (NNOX, Financials), and voice AI startup SoundHound AI (SOUN, Financials).
The semiconductor powerhouse also relinquished around 44% of its shareholding in British chip design business Arm Holdings (ARM, Financials).
Under a $75 million fundraising round designed to enable SoundHound AI to expand globally, Nvidia first made investments in the company in 2017. Along with Arm, the chipmaker disclosed in February 2024 its stake in SoundHound and Nano-X among other investments.
Major contributor of semiconductor intellectual property, Arm is a close partner of Nvidia—especially in the mobile and embedded chip sectors. Originally aiming to acquire Arm from SoftBank in a $40 billion transaction, Nvidia's acquisition was halted under government investigation in 2022. Nvidia still controls somewhat over 1.1 million shares as of December 31, 2024, albeit having less total ownership overall.
The package also included both current and past Nvidia investments. The company maintained interests in Applied Digital (APLD, Financials), a company focused on AI-driven data centers; Nebius, a cloud computing platform funded by Nvidia in late 2024; and Recursion Pharmaceuticals (RXRX, Financials), a biotech company applying artificial intelligence for drug discovery.
Furthermore disclosed by Nvidia was a recent acquisition of 1.7 million shares in WeRide (WRD, Financials), a Chinese autonomous vehicle firm WeRide develops self-driving technology for both passenger and commercial cars and has agreements with several of the big Chinese manufacturers.
