Microsoft is set to report first-quarter earnings after the bell on Wednesday, Oct 29.
The company is one of three big tech companies revealing financial results on Wednesday. The others are Meta and Alphabet.
Wall Street analysts are bullish on the company, according to Bloomberg. Microsoft hit a $4 trillion market cap after it beat expectations in its last quarterly report. Nvidia was the first company to reach the milestone earlier this year.
Like all other major tech companies, Microsoft is ramping up its expansion into artificial intelligence. Azure, Microsoft’s cloud unit, generated more than $75 billion during the 2025 fiscal year. Still, the company previously said it has a lack of servers to rent out to customers and expected constraints to impact the business through the end of fiscal year 2025.
According to Bloomberg, in the company’s last six quarterly earnings calls, Microsoft said it's been unable to meet all of its customers’ cloud demand and is racing to build AI data centers. In January, the company announced plans to invest $80 billion this year in AI.
This week, the company revealed it had reached a deal with Open AI that would allow the ChatGPT company to go public. Open AI is currently valued at $500 billion. The agreement means Microsoft will hold 27% of the OpenAI Group PBC, valued at $135 billion, according to Yahoo Finance.
