Consolidated revenue advanced to $14.9 billion from $13.3 billion, net income inched lower to $2.927 billion from $2.929 billion, and diluted earnings per share edged down to $1.01 from $1.03 a year ago.

It was an astonishing quarter—and demand for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure continues to build.

Over the next few months, we expect to sign up several additional multi-billion-dollar customers, and Remaining Performance Obligation is likely to exceed half a trillion dollars," Catz added. 

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure revenue is to grow 77% to $18 billion this fiscal year—and then increase to $32 billion, $73 billion, $114 billion, and $144 billion over the subsequent four years."

Oracle Chairman and CTO Larry Ellison announced that MultiCloud database revenue from Amazon, Google, and Microsoft grew by an impressive 1,529% year-over-year in the first fiscal quarter.

"This growth is to continue as Oracle delivers 37 additional datacenters to its hyperscaler partners, bringing the total to 71," estimated Ellison. 

Ellison also revealed that Oracle will launch a new service next month at Oracle AI World called the "Oracle AI Database," which will allow customers to run leading AI models—such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok—directly on top of Oracle Database.

The Children’s Place, Inc., jumped 6.6% to $5.80 despite the children’s apparel and accessories retailer’s net income swinging to a loss in the latest quarter ending on August 2.

However, we believe we are well-positioned to manage these impacts, having plans to mitigate approximately 80% of the effects of these tariffs through a range of strategic initiatives," said Muhammad Umair, President and Interim Chief Executive Officer.
