NVIDIA and AMD have committed to transferring fifteen percent of their Chinese artificial intelligence chip revenues to the United States government under a recent arrangement. The Financial Times reports this revenue-sharing deal emerged from negotiations with the Trump administration regarding export licenses for specialized processors. Both semiconductor manufacturers sought governmental approval to resume sales of restricted graphics processing units to Chinese markets.

NVIDIA received clearance for its H20 graphics cards while AMD awaits approval for MI308 accelerators after experiencing significant income declines from Chinese market restrictions. Chinese purchases previously represented 12.5 percent of NVIDIA's total sales, generating approximately $4.6 billion during the first quarter. Government sources remain unclear about how officials plan to utilize this revenue stream, though analysts suggest funds may address trade deficits or support domestic manufacturing initiatives.

The arrangement could yield over $2 billion annually for federal coffers based on projected sales volumes. NVIDIA representatives declined confirmation but emphasized compliance with all governmental market participation requirements.
