Microsoft stock surged 8.88% in after-hours trading following its Q4 FY2026 earnings report, adding $257 billion to its market value. The company beat analyst forecasts with EPS of $4.74 versus $4.24 expected and revenue of $90.01 billion versus $87.62 billion expected. Azure cloud growth accelerated to 43%, driving the Intelligent Cloud segment revenue to $39.31 billion, a 31.6% year-over-year increase. Despite a 23% drop in free cash flow and high capital expenditures of $41 billion in Q4, investors remained confident, partly due to Microsoft's decision to extend the useful life of data center and office buildings from 15 to 25 years, signaling long-term infrastructure value amid AI investments.
