“Oracle signed sales contracts for more than $48 billion in Q3,” said Oracle CEO, Safra Catz. “This record sales number pushed our Remaining Performance Obligations, or RPO, up 63% to over $130 billion. We have now signed cloud agreements with several world leading technology companies including: OpenAI, xAI, Meta, NVIDIA and AMD. We expect that our huge $130 billion sales backlog will help drive a 15% increase in Oracle’s overall revenue in our next fiscal year beginning this June. And we expect RPO to continue to grow rapidly—as we look forward to signing our first Stargate contract—yet another big opportunity for Oracle to expand both its AI training and AI inferencing businesses in the near future.”
“We are on schedule to double our data center capacity this calendar year,” said Oracle Chairman and CTO, Larry Ellison. “Customer demand is at record levels. Our Database MultiCloud revenue from Microsoft, Google and Amazon is up 92% in the last three months alone. GPU consumption for AI training grew 244% in the last 12 months. And we are seeing enormous demand for AI inferencing on our customers’ private data. So, we are connecting OpenAI ChatGPT, xAI Grok and Meta Llama directly to Version 23ai of the Oracle Database with advanced vector capabilities. This new product, called the Oracle AI Data Platform, makes it easy for customers to use any of the world’s leading AI models to analyze all of their private data—while keeping all their data private and secure.”
Oracle also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share of outstanding common stock, reflecting a 25% increase over the current quarterly dividend of $0.40. Larry Ellison, Oracle’s Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Technology Officer, and largest stockholder, did not participate in the deliberation or the vote on this matter. This increased dividend will be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 10, 2025, with a payment date of April 23, 2025.
