Oracle (ORCL) shares have seen a significant disconnect between their market performance and fundamental metrics, delivering a -38% return in the last twelve months, the lowest among its peers. Despite this, the company's price-to-earnings ratio stands at 24.4, second only to Microsoft's 27.3, and its operating margin of 33.3% edges out Alphabet. Revenue growth at 17.4% is also a respectable third among comparable companies.
This valuation premium is attributed to Oracle's aggressive investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure, evidenced by a $638 billion remaining performance obligations (RPO) backlog. To support this, Oracle anticipates approximately $70 billion in capital expenditures for fiscal 2027, planning to raise around $40 billion in debt and equity. This large-scale investment has raised questions about the immediate financial burden on the company.
