Oracle Corp (ISIN US68389X1054) traded at EUR 126.16 at Lang & Schwarz on October 12, 2026, 0.47 percent below the Xetra close of October 9, 2026. Mizuho Securities named Oracle a top pick with a USD 320 price target in an October 8, 2026 report, according to Investing.com.

Oracle's three recent milestones

On September 10, 2026, Oracle reported fiscal first-quarter 2027 revenue of USD 19.30 billion, up 30.00 percent year over year. Non-GAAP earnings per share reached USD 1.92, beating the USD 1.74 consensus estimate by 10.34 percent, according to Zacks.

On September 18, 2026, DZ Bank cut its Oracle fair value from USD 280 to USD 225 while retaining a Buy rating, Finanzen.net reported. On October 8, 2026, Mizuho placed Oracle first on its top-picks list and set a USD 320 target, according to Investing.com.

What does the backlog mean for cash?

Oracle's remaining performance obligations reached USD 664.00 billion at the end of fiscal first quarter 2027, up USD 209.00 billion from a year earlier. Cloud infrastructure revenue rose 121.00 percent to USD 7.40 billion, but capital expenditures reached USD 28.50 billion against operating cash flow of USD 23.00 billion, leaving free cash flow negative USD 5.40 billion, according to FinanceFeeds. The figures show the central tension: contracted demand is expanding faster than near-term cash generation.

Two dates shape the next debate

Oracle's next dated events are a dividend payment scheduled for October 23, 2026, and an investor day scheduled for October 28, 2026. The latter could give analysts more detail on data-center investment, backlog conversion and the path from cloud growth to free cash flow, while the latest quarter already established a 30.00 percent revenue growth rate.
