To my colleagues at NVIDIA,
I owe my family and all of you an apology.
I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I’m deeply sorry.
Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the harm I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.
To my wife and family: I love you. I know that an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope that our family recovers and that, in time, I can regain your trust.
To my colleagues at NVIDIA, including those with whom I have worked for decades, and to our board of directors, partners and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me. Leading NVIDIA is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have not fulfilled that responsibility. I am fully committed to NVIDIA and will work to regain their trust.
Regarding the national security concerns raised in the news, NVIDIA’s board of directors has launched an independent investigation. I support the investigation and will cooperate fully. I love our country and our company. I am committed to protecting NVIDIA and supporting the national security of the United States. I am proud and grateful to be an American.
My family has no responsibility for my decisions. Yes. Please give them privacy.
