Oracle has transformed into a new cloud company and carries enormous debt.
The five giants Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle had operating cash flow of $542.9 billion and capital expenditure of $556.9 billion in the first three quarters, with free cash flow turning from positive $143.5 billion to negative $14 billion.
According to a Hacker News community discussion, Microsoft is gradually terminating its agreement with Oracle to lease AI cloud compute.
If Microsoft terminates the leasing agreement, it could put some pressure on Oracle's AI cloud revenue growth expectations; leasing orders from hyperscale vendors are high-value incremental revenue for Oracle, and a contraction would directly affect the growth expectations and capital expenditure return calculations of its cloud infrastructure business.
Through large-scale procurement of NVIDIA GPUs and the launch of GPU superclusters equipped with tens of thousands of H100s, Oracle has won customers in the AI training market including xAI and some OpenAI workloads.
According to a report by the UK's Financial Times, Oracle canceled a roughly $7 billion Southeast Asia compute leasing agreement with Tencent, involving 100,000 advanced AI chips.
All the proceeds from Oracle's financing are to be used for the construction and expansion of AI infrastructure.
Oracle's choice of parallel equity and debt financing is essentially about diversifying financing risk in an uncertain market environment while retaining room for further financing in the future.
Oracle actively expands AI compute services through its OCI business and has established partnerships with multiple AI companies.
The specific issuance timetable and pricing details have not yet been announced.
