AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) today announced fiscal 2026 Q2 results. Total Remaining Performance Obligations were up 438% year-over-year in USD to $523 billion. Total quarterly revenues were up 14% in USD, and up 13% in constant currency to $16.1 billion. Cloud revenues were up 34% in USD, and up 33% in constant currency to $8.0 billion. Software revenues were down 3% in USD, and down 5% in constant currency to $5.9 billion.
Q2 GAAP operating income was $4.7 billion. Non-GAAP operating income was $6.7 billion, up 10% year-over-year in USD and up 8% in constant currency. GAAP net income was $6.1 billion. Non-GAAP net income was $6.6 billion, up 57% in USD and up 54% in constant currency. Q2 GAAP earnings per share was $2.10, up 91% in USD and up 86% in constant currency. Non-GAAP earnings per share was $2.26, up 54% in USD and up 51% in constant currency.
Short-term deferred revenues were $9.9 billion. Over the last twelve months, operating cash flow was $22.3 billion, up 10% in USD.
“Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO) increased by $68 billion in Q2—up 15% sequentially to $523 billion—highlighted by new commitments from Meta, NVIDIA, and others,” said Oracle Principal Financial Officer, Doug Kehring. “Q2 GAAP earnings per share was up 91% to $2.10, and non-GAAP earnings per share was up 54% to $2.26. Our GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share were both positively impacted by a $2.7 billion pre-tax gain in the sale of Oracle’s interest in our Ampere chip company.”
“Oracle sold Ampere because we no longer think it is strategic for us to continue designing, manufacturing and using our own chips in our cloud datacenters,” said Oracle Chairman and CTO, Larry Ellison. “We are now committed to a policy of chip neutrality where we work closely with all our CPU and GPU suppliers. Of course, we will continue to buy the latest GPUs from NVIDIA, but we need to be prepared and able to deploy whatever chips our customers want to buy. There are going to be a lot of changes in AI technology over the next few years and we must remain agile in response to those changes.”
“Oracle is very good at building and running high-performance and cost-efficient cloud datacenters,” said Oracle CEO, Clay Magouyrk. “For years Oracle has been investing in AI and building autonomous cloud software. Oracle’s Autonomous Database and Autonomous Linux have been key to reducing human labor and human error in our datacenters. Because our datacenters are highly automated, we can build and run more of them. Oracle has over 211 live and planned regions worldwide—more than any of our cloud competitors. We are more than halfway through building 72 Oracle Multicloud datacenters to be embedded throughout the Amazon, Google and Microsoft clouds. We are committed to Cloud Neutrality because we believe that our customers should be able to run their Oracle databases in any cloud they choose. That strategy is definitely paying off. Our Multicloud database business is our fastest growing business—up 817% in Q2.”
“AI Training and selling AI Models are very big businesses,” said Oracle CEO, Mike Sicilia. “But we think there is an even larger opportunity—embedding AI in a variety of different products. Oracle is in a unique position to embed AI in all three layers of our software products: our Cloud Datacenter software, our Autonomous Database and Analytic software, and our Applications software. All three of these Oracle software businesses are already big—AI will make them all better and bigger. AI allows us to automate complex multistep processes that were impossible to automate before AI. AI is enabling us to automate loan origination and risk quantification for banks and their customers. AI is enabling us to help doctors diagnose and care for their patients and manage the reimbursement process between healthcare providers and payers. All of the top five AI Models are in the Oracle Cloud. We have huge advantages over our applications competitors.”
The board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share of outstanding common stock. This dividend will be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 9, 2026, with a payment date of January 23, 2026.
