OracleORCLBUY ON WEAKNESSSep 25, 2025Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jul 14, 2026. Market Open.
They delivered a strong quarter yesterday. When Oracle issued debt to pay for its big data centre build-out, investors became concerned over its credit, starting last fall. However, their Q3 had many highlights: top and bottom line beat and every division except their smallest posted better than expected sales. Also, their operating margin rose over the last quarter. EPS also grew. Q4 guidance: 19-21% revenue growth, higher than expected. Meanwhile, OpenAI completed its fundraising so it can pay its bills for the short/medium term; Oracle doesn't have to worry about this in their partnership with OpenAI.
Ironic that recent revenue and earnings missed, but it sees cloud infrastructure segment swelling from $10.3B in 2025 to $144B by 2030. Big winner of AI boom. Could be involved in TikTok ownership. Despite all the talk of capex, looks rather asset-light to him.
Huge run, but he's still modelling 28% EPS growth from 2026-2029. Trades at 38x for 2027 and 27x for 2028, kind of an expensive PEG, but not bad. Don't buy at the top, accumulate on pullbacks.
