Microsoft (MSFT) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Microsoft’s strong financial outlook is supported by robust revenue growth across its three primary business segments, with total revenue for the current quarter reported at $69.6 billion, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 12.3%. The Intelligent Cloud segment, a key driver of growth, showed remarkable performance, achieving a 19% increase in revenue year-over-year, bolstered by significant contributions from Azure and Dynamics 365, which grew 19% and 15%, respectively. Additionally, the Productivity and Business Processes segment reported a revenue increase of 14%, indicating a stable demand for Microsoft 365 Commercial products and cloud services, further solidifying the company’s positive growth trajectory.
Bears say
The analysis highlights a negative outlook for Microsoft's stock primarily due to a decline in its on-premise server revenue, which fell 1% year-over-year, indicating slower purchasing trends surrounding the Windows Server 2025 launch. Although Azure experienced a commendable 31% year-over-year growth, this figure represents a deceleration toward the lower end of prior expectations, raising concerns about future revenue growth in cloud services. Additionally, a notable 7% decline in gaming revenue alongside uneven execution in consumer markets presents further risks to sustaining competitive leadership and long-term growth prospects for Microsoft as it navigates an intensively competitive landscape.
