<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle has delivered a stronger-than-expected first quarter, powered by explosive growth in its cloud infrastructure business as demand for artificial intelligence computing continues to accelerate.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Revenue and earnings beat expectations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle reported fiscal Q1 FY2027 revenue of $19.3 billion<\/strong>, up 30% from a year earlier. Adjusted earnings came in at $1.92 per share<\/strong>, beating Wall Street expectations of around $1.74.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GAAP earnings were $1.56 per share, up 55% year over year, while net income rose 60% to approximately $4.7 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company’s overall cloud business was the biggest growth engine, with cloud revenue increasing 62% to $11.6 billion<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloud infrastructure becomes the star<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, or OCI, recorded particularly strong growth. Infrastructure revenue jumped 121% year over year to $7.4 billion<\/strong>, more than doubling in a single year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloud applications revenue was comparatively slower, rising 10% to $4.2 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rapid expansion of OCI reflects growing demand for computing capacity used to train and run AI models. Oracle said customer demand for AI cloud training and inference services continues to exceed available supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI contracts push backlog to $664 billion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the biggest numbers in Oracle’s results was its remaining performance obligations, or RPO. The figure climbed to $664 billion<\/strong>, up $209 billion from the same period last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle booked more than $30 billion in additional AI cloud contracts<\/strong> during the quarter. The company also delivered more than 300,000 GPUs to AI cloud customers after the end of its previous quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The huge backlog gives Oracle substantial visibility into future revenue, although delivering on these contracts will require continued investment in data centres, computing infrastructure and GPUs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Massive AI spending continues<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle brought an additional 850 megawatts of data-centre capacity<\/strong> online during the quarter. Capital spending surged to roughly $28.5 billion, reflecting the enormous cost of expanding its infrastructure to meet AI demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spending has also affected cash generation. Oracle generated a record $23 billion in operating cash flow, but free cash flow remained negative at about $5 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company also completed a $20 billion stock sale<\/strong> during the quarter as part of its capital funding programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle raises full-year outlook<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oracle expects second-quarter revenue to grow between 30% and 34%, while cloud revenue is forecast to grow between 65% and 71%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the full fiscal year, Oracle now expects revenue of at least $90 billion<\/strong>, alongside adjusted earnings of $8.10 per share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The results provide a major boost to Oracle’s AI-cloud strategy, although the company’s enormous infrastructure spending, rising financing requirements and pressure to rapidly build capacity remain important factors for investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary:<\/strong> Oracle’s Q1 FY2027 results showed 30% revenue growth, with cloud infrastructure revenue soaring 121% to $7.4 billion. Its AI-driven backlog reached $664 billion after more than $30 billion in new AI contracts, while massive data-centre investment continues to weigh on free cash flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
