Oracle's Core Business Strength Likely Sustained in Q4, BofA Securities Says

By

Oracle's (ORCL) core business strength likely sustained in Q4 as the company ramps data center buildout to meet its backlog commitments amid rising demand for computing power, BofA Securities said in a Tuesday research report.

The company will report Q4 results after the close on Wednesday, June 10.

Double-digit stock gains since fiscal Q3 could be attributed to broader software strength and lower funding overhang, according to the note.

The brokerage said it expects Cloud PaaS/IaaS to grow 94% in Q4 as more data center capacity comes online. Cloud and software gross margin is expected at 70%, but capex is likely to remain elevated, with BofA modeling $68.3 billion in fiscal 2027.

The brokerage said it reiterated its buy rating on the stock and boosted its price objective to $240 per share from $200.

Price: $212.22, Change: $+0.40, Percent Change: +0.19%
