Oracle's cloud transition helps third-quarter profit beat

Sales of the company's cloud-computing software and platform service rose nearly 62 percent to $1.19 billion, while its software licensing business fell nearly 16 percent.

The company's shift to cloud-based products to tackle the shrinking licensing business was strengthened with its $9.3 billion NetSuite acquisition in July.

How about Oracle (ORCL) ? That was a monster quarter, the best in years.

The enterprise resources planning cloud business is on fire and the Safra Catz/Mark Hurd/Larry Ellison tandem are delivering.

Why isn't this stock at $55 and not $50?

Beats the heck out of me.

Oracle Corp – Owning the fourth-largest hyperscaler
Recommendation: BUY (Initiation), Last done: US$288 TP: US$350

Oracle’s remaining performance obligations (RPO) backlog surged 359% in 1Q26 to US$455bn (7.9x FY25 revenue), driven by multi-billion-dollar deals i.e. major multicloud partnerships, AI training and inference and Project Stargate.

Oracle has guided Cloud Infrastructure to reach US$144bn by FY30e, implying a 68% CAGR over four years.

Oracle can accelerate profit growth by scaling capacity and converting its backlog.

Oracle is a niche Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and full-stack AI provider, gaining traction with flexible Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) deployments and strong compliance for regulated industries.

Partnerships with major clouds providers and chipmakers support AI training, inference, and database integration, driving 55% YoY infrastructure growth and positioning Oracle for long-term recurring revenue.

We initiate coverage on Oracle with a BUY recommendation and a target price of US$350.

Target price based on 5-year DCF model, factoring high CAPEX in first two years and Oracle’s long-term guidance.

Oracle’s higher P/E is supported by its strong 85% ROE, well above the hyperscaler average.

Growth driven by cloud expansion, long-term contracts, and rising RPO.

Oracle’s high RPO backlog supports elevated valuation, with potential for further growth this year.

Oracle Corp – Cloud infrastructure growth rate to compound 75%

Oracle AI World 2025 is centred on AI capabilities, including the AI Data Platform and Acceleron, delivering secure private AI training with faster throughput and lower costs.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure revenue guidance raised to US$166bn for FY30e (CAGR 75%) and 75% of group revenue, driven by a growing pipeline of large AI infrastructure deals with major customers across diverse industries.

We maintain our DCF target price at US$350.00 and FY26e estimates pending greater clarity on the CAPEX trajectory to support higher revenue (WACC 6.2%, g 2.5%).

Potential upside hinges on clearer visibility and faster execution of multi-billion-dollar AI deals.

JPM: "Oracle's debt to equity ratio is already 500% compared to 50% for Amazon, 30% for Microsoft and even less at Meta and Google.

In other words, the tech capital cycle may be about to change" (Cembalest, Sept 24)

Oracle stock sinks as revenue falls short of Wall Street estimates

by Laura Bratton

Oracle reported revenue of $16.06 billion for its fiscal second quarter, up 14% from the previous year but lower than the $16.21 billion projected.

The tech firm's closely watched AI segment, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), saw a 68% climb in revenue to $4.1 billion, roughly in line.

Oracle's earnings per share of $2.26 surpassed the $1.64 projected by the Street, marking a jump from EPS of $1.47 in the year-ago period.

Oracle shares have plummeted more than 30% from their September peak as the company's mounting debt and heavy reliance upon OpenAI (OPAI.PVT) to reach its ambitious revenue targets put investors on edge.

Oracle slumps as gloomy forecasts, soaring spending fan AI bubble worries

The company's massive spending and weak forecasts fanned doubts over how quickly the big bets on AI will pay off.

300 billion OpenAI deal. Shares sliding in recent weeks on concern Google is pulling ahead of OpenAI.

Investors have also dumped Oracle bonds on worries about its debt-fueled AI build-out, while piling into credit-default swaps (CDS) that offer bondholders a hedge against default.
