Microsoft posts strong Q4 and FY2026 with 18% revenue growth and Azure surpassing $100B.

Microsoft reported strong financial results for Q4 and the full fiscal year 2026, achieving 18% revenue growth and expanding its Azure cloud business past $100 billion with 41% growth. The company's AI monetization strategy is proving successful, with a commercial backlog reaching $678 billion and $2.70 in future revenue booked for every $1 of capital expenditure. Despite recent share price weakness, Microsoft shares remain undervalued at under 21 times projected FY2028 earnings per share, with expected annual EPS growth of around 20% and a healthy dividend supported by a 20% payout ratio. The outlook remains positive as AI-driven revenue growth, backlog expansion, and operational leverage are expected to drive further gains through fiscal 2027 and beyond.
