About Oracle Corporation

About Oracle Corporation

Oracle Corporation's cloud and license business generated cloud services representing 43% of total revenues in fiscal 2025, up from 37% in fiscal 2024 and 32% in fiscal 2023, reflecting a multi-year migration of enterprise customers from on-premise to Oracle Cloud. The company invested $9.9 billion in R&D in fiscal 2025. Infrastructure cloud services (OCI) accounted for 56% and applications cloud services (OCA) for 44% of total cloud and license support revenues.

Oracle earns revenue through three segments: cloud and license (the dominant segment), hardware, and professional services. The cloud and license business covers Oracle Cloud Applications—spanning Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP, HCM, EPM, SCM, and NetSuite—sold as subscriptions, plus Oracle Cloud Infrastructure compute, storage, networking, and database services priced on consumption. On-premise license customers typically purchase annual support contracts. The hardware segment sells Oracle Engineered Systems, servers, and storage with associated support contracts; manufacturing and assembly is outsourced to companies outside the U.S., and certain components can only be sourced from a single vendor due to availability constraints. OCI interoperates with Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud through multicloud partnerships, though the 10-K notes this multicloud strategy could lead customers to shift workloads to competitors' products.

Show full overview

Oracle's 10-K explicitly discloses that certain data center components can only be purchased from a single vendor due to price, quality, technology, or availability constraints. Additionally, industry supply capacity for AI accelerators, including graphics processing units, is competitive enough that the company at times must accept less favorable supplier terms to secure supply, increasing excess and obsolescence risk. Long-term data center lease commitments with third-party providers carry significant contract termination fees, meaning both underestimating and overestimating demand forecasts may weigh on profitability.
