Where can I find the detailed financial results for NVIDIA's first quarter of fiscal year 2013?

The detailed financial results are available in the press release (Exhibit 99.1) and the CFO Commentary (Exhibit 99.2) attached to this 8-K filing. These documents were issued on May 11, 2012.

What is the significance of the documents being 'furnished' rather than 'filed'?

When documents are furnished, they are made available to the public but do not carry the same legal liabilities as documents that are officially 'filed' with the SEC, such as under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This means the company is not subject to the same level of scrutiny or potential penalties for any inaccuracies in these furnished materials.

Does this 8-K contain forward-looking statements or guidance for future quarters?

This 8-K filing primarily serves to report past results. Any forward-looking statements, guidance, or management's outlook for future performance would be detailed within the attached press release (Exhibit 99.1) and the CFO Commentary (Exhibit 99.2).
