Company snapshot

Generates revenue through software licensing, cloud subscriptions, enterprise services, device sales, and advertising.

Microsoft Corporation is a global leader in technology, operating at scale across cloud infrastructure, productivity software, and digital platforms. The company leverages a broad product suite and recurring revenue streams to maintain a strong competitive position. A strategic focus on cloud computing and enterprise solutions underpins its sustained growth.
Foolish take
Microsoft is a giant in tech and with its early backing of OpenAI, a leader in artificial intelligence. The company has seen double-digit growth in both revenue and net income for the past five quarters (with Q2 2024 as the sole exception at 9.7% net income growth), largely driven by its cloud computing segment, which grew 22% last quarter.
With a strong financial standing, Microsoft is heavily investing in AI-related cloud infrastructure, projecting approximately $80 billion in spending for 2025.
However, investors should be aware of risks, primarily the strain in Microsoft's relationship with OpenAI and its reliance on it for the lion's share of its cloud revenue growth. There's a possibility OpenAI could switch cloud providers and leave Microsoft hanging out to dry.
Microsoft stock currently trades at a P/E ratio of 38, higher than its 20-year average. While it's a solid addition to a diversified portfolio, I think there are better opportunities within big tech.
