Microsoft’s earning report for the first quarter of the 2025 fiscal year is out, and it shows some strong figures and growth.
Microsoft finished the first quarter of the 2025 fiscal year on September 30, 2024, and now it is time to report its earnings.
In the first quarter of the 2025 fiscal year (remember, fiscal and calendar years are not the same), Microsoft generated $65.6 billion of revenue, a 16% increase over the same period one year ago. Operation income increased by 14% and totaled $24.7 billion. Overall, Microsoft reported a $3.30 earnings per share, which, again, is a 10% increase over the same quarter from 2024. The company also acknowledged a 12% operating expenses increase ($14.9 billion) due to the Activision purchase and investment in cloud engineering.
