Earnings Calendar (08Dec25)
Several notable companies are scheduled to report their earnings in the coming week, including Campbell’s, Oracle, Adobe, Broadcom, and Costco.
Let us take a look at Oracle.
Technical and Analyst Sentiment
Oracle currently receives a “Buy” recommendation based on technical analysis. Analysts also hold a positive view, assigning a “Buy” rating. The consensus price target stands at $332.29, which implies a potential upside of 52.72% from current levels. While these signals point toward optimism, it’s noteworthy that Oracle’s share price has risen by 13% over the past year.
Financial Performance
Oracle’s revenue has shown substantial growth, rising from $37 billion in 2016 to $57 billion in 2025. Over the same period, operating profit increased from $13.1 billion to $18 billion. The company’s earnings per share (EPS) have more than doubled, advancing from $2.07 in 2016 to $4.34 in 2025. Dividends per share also saw a marked increase, moving from $0.60 in 2016 to $1.70 in 2025.
Valuation and Financial Health
Oracle’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is currently 49.9. The company’s debt-to-equity ratio stands at 3.8, which may warrant attention due to its elevated level. However, Oracle maintains healthy margins, with the 10-year median for free cash flow (FCF) at 30.8% and gross profit margins at 79%.
Oracle’s P/E (49.9) is currently higher than the direct Software industry average approx 31.5-34.0. This multiple suggests that investors are pricing in strong future growth expectations, primarily driven by the company’s aggressive transition to its high-margin Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Fusion Cloud ERP platforms.

The above are some of the recent news surrounding Oracle.
The earning’s forecast are $1.65 and $16.19B for Oracle’s EPS and revenue respectively.
Given the above data, I prefer to monitor the business for now. While it has maintained profitability and decent cashflow, there is much expectation for future earnings and its debt deserves some attention.
