Analysts predict Oracle will report a 20% year-over-year revenue increase to $19.1 billion and a rise in adjusted earnings to $1.97 per share. Overall, Wall Street remains bullish on Oracle, with a consensus price target suggesting more than 20% upside.

Oracle is set to report earnings after the closing bell Wednesday, with the cloud computing giant's stock seen making a big swing after the results.1

Recent options pricing suggests trading expect Oracle's ( ORCL) stock could swing up to 11% in either direction by the end of the week. A move of that magnitude from Monday's close could see the tech firm's stock rise to around $236, or slip back below $188.

Oracle shares have added about 9% in 2026 so far, rebounding from their February lows amid a broader tech rally and improving sentiment around the AI trade in recent months. Still, they remain nearly 40% off their September highs, as concerns about Oracle's outsized exposure to OpenAI and its debt load to build out its network of data centers have weighed on the shares.

Why This Matters to Investors

Oracle's latest earnings could offer investors more insights into Oracle's trajectory, after the company has made cuts to its workforce to support its big spending plans.

UBS analysts, who recently lifted their price target to $285 from $250, said investors will likely be looking for assurances about Oracle's ability to continue bringing more data center capacity online, and updates around Oracle's capital expenditures.2

Oracle is projected to report fiscal fourth-quarter revenue of $19.1 billion, up about 20% year-over-year, while adjusted earnings per share are seen growing to $1.97 from $1.70 a year ago. Oracle's backlog is seen growing to a record $592.52 million, according to Visible Alpha estimates.
