Microsoft Corp. wrapped up a second consecutive fiscal year of strong growth with a blowout quarterly earnings report Thursday, improving on its trillion-dollar valuation in late trading.
“It was a record fiscal year for Microsoft, a result of our deep partnerships with leading companies in every industry,” Chief Executive Satya Nadella said in Thursday’s announcement. Microsoft’s gains in the past two fiscal years have largely come from booming growth for its cloud-computing product, Azure, which rivals Amazon.com Inc.’s AMZN, -0.71% Amazon Web Services. Intelligent cloud sales, of which Azure is a part, rose to $11.4 billion from $9.61 billion in the year-ago quarter. The company had also forecast $10.85 billion to $11.05 billion in intelligent cloud sales and $10.8 billion to $11.1 billion in PC revenue. Analysts had expected $11.
Wow, that shitcoin pumped from $136 to $138!
