Insights

Financial Analyst

Oracle delivered an impressive Q2 with significant growth across key metrics. $14.1B revenue represents a solid 9% YoY growth, while cloud revenue reached $5.9B, up 24%. The standout performer was Cloud Infrastructure, growing 52% YoY to $2.4B, driven by unprecedented AI-related demand with GPU consumption surging 336%. The $97B remaining performance obligation (RPO) indicates strong future revenue visibility. Operating margins remain robust at 43% (non-GAAP), while EPS grew 24% to $1.10 (GAAP). The Meta partnership for AI infrastructure signals potential for continued momentum in the high-margin cloud segment.

Tech Analyst

Oracle's strategic positioning in AI infrastructure is paying off handsomely. The 336% surge in GPU consumption and the capability to scale to 65,000 NVIDIA H200 GPUs demonstrates Oracle's competitive edge in AI computing. The Meta partnership is particularly significant, validating Oracle's cloud infrastructure capabilities against larger competitors. Their diverse AI applications spanning healthcare, agriculture and security showcase practical AI implementation at scale. The focus on specialized AI models and AI Agents embedded in cloud applications indicates a well-thought-out strategy to differentiate in the crowded cloud market, particularly in high-value AI workloads.

Market Research Analyst

The market dynamics revealed in Oracle's results show a clear shift toward AI-driven cloud services. Their claim of outpacing hyperscale competitors in cloud infrastructure growth is noteworthy, suggesting market share gains in the lucrative AI infrastructure segment. The projection of $25B in total cloud revenue for the fiscal year, combined with strong RPO growth, indicates sustained momentum. The expansion in both Fusion (18%) and NetSuite (20%) ERP revenues demonstrates successful execution in core business applications. The diversity of AI applications across sectors positions Oracle well for the ongoing enterprise AI transformation wave.

AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) today announced fiscal 2025 Q2 results. Total quarterly revenues were up 9% year-over-year, in both USD and constant currency, to $14.1 billion. Cloud services and license support revenues were up 12% year-over-year, in both USD and constant currency, to $10.8 billion. Cloud license and on-premise license revenues were up 1% in USD and up 3% in constant currency, to $1.2 billion.  

Q2 GAAP operating income was $4.2 billion. Non-GAAP operating income was $6.1 billion, up 10% in both USD and constant currency. GAAP operating margin was 30%, and non-GAAP operating margin was 43%. GAAP net income was $3.2 billion. Non-GAAP net income was $4.2 billion, up 12% in both USD and constant currency. Q2 GAAP earnings per share was $1.10, up 24% in USD and up 23% in constant currency, while non-GAAP earnings per share was $1.47, up 10% in both USD and constant currency.

Short-term deferred revenues were $9.4 billion. Over the last twelve months, operating cash flow was $20.3 billion and free cash flow was $9.5 billion.

"Record level AI demand drove Oracle Cloud Infrastructure revenue up 52% in Q2, a much higher growth rate than any of our hyperscale cloud infrastructure competitors," said Oracle CEO, Safra Catz. "Growth in the AI segment of our Infrastructure business was extraordinary—GPU consumption was up 336% in the quarter—and we delivered the world's largest and fastest AI SuperComputer scaling up to 65,000 NVIDIA H200 GPUs. With our remaining performance obligation (RPO) up 50% to $97 billion, we believe our already impressive growth rates will continue to climb even higher. This fiscal year, total Oracle Cloud revenue should top $25 billion."

"Oracle Cloud Infrastructure trains several of the world's most important generative AI models because we are faster and less expensive than other clouds," said Oracle Chairman and CTO, Larry Ellison. "And we just signed an agreement with Meta—for them to use Oracle's AI Cloud Infrastructure—and collaborate with Oracle on the development of AI Agents based on Meta's Llama models. The Oracle Cloud trains dozens of specialized AI models and embeds hundreds of AI Agents in cloud applications. For example, Oracle's AI Agents automate drug design, image and genomic analysis for cancer diagnostics, audio updates to electronic health records for patient care, satellite image analysis to predict and improve agricultural output, fraud and money laundering detection, dual-factor biometric computer logins, and real time video weapons detection in schools. Oracle trained AI models and AI Agents will improve the rate of scientific discovery, economic development and corporate growth throughout the world. The scale of the opportunity is unimaginable."

The board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.40 per share of outstanding common stock. This dividend will be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 9, 2025, with a payment date of January 23, 2025.

The difference in our GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates in each of the second quarters of fiscal 2025 and 2024 was primarily due to the net tax effects related to stock-based compensation expense; acquisition related and other items, including the tax effects on amortization of intangible assets; and restructuring expense, partially offset by the net deferred tax effects related to an income tax benefit that was previously recorded due to the partial realignment of our legal entity structure.

(4)	Estimated future annual amortization expense related to intangible assets as of November 30, 2024 was as follows:
	Remainder of fiscal 2025		$         1,092
	Fiscal 2026		1,639
	Fiscal 2027		672
	Fiscal 2028		635
	Fiscal 2029		561
	Fiscal 2030		522
	Thereafter		558
	Total intangible assets, net		$         5,679
(5)	Income tax effects were calculated reflecting an effective GAAP tax rate of 7.3% and 3.4% in the first half of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively, and an effective non-GAAP tax rate of 19.5% and 18.8% in the first half of fiscal 2025 and 2024, respectively. The difference in our GAAP and non-GAAP tax rates in each of the first half of fiscal 2025 and 2024 was primarily due to the net tax effects related to stock-based compensation expense; acquisition related and other items, including the tax effects on amortization of intangible assets; and restructuring expense, partially offset by the net deferred tax effects related to an income tax benefit that was previously recorded due to the partial realignment of our legal entity structure.

We believe free cash flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing our performance with our competitors. The presentation of non-GAAP free cash flow is not meant       to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of       liquidity.

APPENDIX A

ORACLE CORPORATION
Q2 FISCAL 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS
EXPLANATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use the non-GAAP measures indicated in the tables, which exclude certain business combination accounting entries and expenses related to acquisitions, as well as other significant expenses including stock-based compensation, that we believe are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and our future results. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our management regularly uses our supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Compensation of our executives is based in part on the performance of our business based on these non-GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items, as well as the related income tax effects:

• Stock-based compensation expenses: We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expenses from our non-GAAP operating expenses, income tax effects and net income measures. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, and we believe such compensation contributed to the revenues earned during the periods presented and also believe it will contribute to the generation of future period revenues, we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock-based compensation expenses. Stock-based compensation expenses will recur in future periods.
• Amortization of intangible assets: We have excluded the effect of amortization of intangible assets from our non-GAAP operating expenses, income tax effects and net income measures. Amortization of intangible assets is inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as well. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods.
• Acquisition related and other expenses; and restructuring expenses: We have excluded the effect of acquisition related and other expenses and the effect of restructuring expenses from our non-GAAP operating expenses, income tax effects and net income measures. We incurred expenses in connection with our acquisitions and also incurred certain other operating expenses or income, which we generally would not have otherwise incurred in the periods presented as a part of our continuing operations. Acquisition related and other expenses consisted of personnel related costs for transitional and certain other employees, certain business combination adjustments including certain adjustments after the measurement period has ended, and certain other operating items, net. Restructuring expenses consisted of employee severance and other exit costs. We believe it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on our total operating expenses. Although acquisition related and other expenses and restructuring expenses may diminish over time with respect to past acquisitions and/or strategic initiatives, we generally will incur certain of these expenses in connection with any future acquisitions and/or strategic initiatives.
