Oracle beats revenue and EPS estimates with strong cloud growth, raising price target to $215.

Oracle reported a strong quarter, surpassing revenue and earnings per share expectations driven by accelerating cloud infrastructure growth and strong AI demand. Despite a 770 basis point year-over-year gross margin decline and negative free cash flow, these are seen as temporary due to capital expenditure not rising with $30 billion in new cloud bookings. The analyst maintains a Strong Buy rating and raises the price target to $215, suggesting a 40% upside. Key upcoming catalyst is the October 28 investor day, where new AI technologies will be introduced to boost adoption and efficiency further.
