Microsoft is considered a Strong Buy following its April renegotiation of the OpenAI agreement, which now caps liabilities and improves free cash flow potential. The new deal removes exclusivity and limits revenue sharing, allowing Microsoft to shift capital expenditures from short-lived GPU assets to more profitable investments. In Q3 FY2026, Microsoft showed strong performance with 18% revenue growth, 23% GAAP EPS growth, and a 40% increase in Azure revenue, although capital expenditure guidance rose to $190 billion, putting pressure on free cash flow. The stock is currently undervalued with a fair value range of $525 to $584, presenting two buying opportunities: immediately and after the FY2027 Q1 earnings when accounting optics might cause a temporary sell-off.
