Oracle Earnings in Focus

The company’s fourth-quarter fiscal 2025 earnings per share were $1.70, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.64 and improved from the year-ago earnings of $1.63. Revenues rose 11% year over year to $15.9 billion and edged past the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $15.54 billion (see: all the Technology ETFs here). 

The business is booming due to soaring demand for computing power that can handle artificial intelligence projects. Revenues from its cloud infrastructure unit soared 52% year over year to $3 billion.

Oracle has raised its annual revenue growth forecast for fiscal 2026. It now expects total revenues to reach at least $67 billion. This reflects an anticipated year-over-year growth of approximately 16.7%, up from its previous estimate of 15%. The upward revision underscores Oracle’s confidence in sustained demand for its cloud services, which continue to be a key driver of the company’s growth strategy.

CEO Safra Catz said cloud infrastructure revenues will increase more than 70% in fiscal 2026, up from 50% growth in fiscal 2025. Going forward, Oracle will likely exceed the $104 billion revenue target for fiscal 2029, Catz added.
