Will Oracle's operating cash flow hit 112 percent of revenue in the quarter ending November 30, 2026?

How it settles

Yes if net cash from operating activities divided by revenue, as reported by Oracle for the quarter ended November 30 2026 on SEC EDGAR, is at or above 112.0 percent. SEC EDGAR, XBRL company facts of Oracle (Forms 10-Q and 10-K)

The exact question and the full rule

Did the net cash from operating activities of Oracle for the quarter ended November 30, 2026 come to at or above 112.0% of its revenue?

Divide the net cash from operating activities by the revenue that Oracle reports for the quarter ended November 30, 2026 in its 10-Q or 10-K filing on SEC EDGAR. The answer is yes if the ratio is at or above 112.0%; no if it is below 112.0%.

If the source is late or silent: If Oracle has not filed by January 18, 2027, or a filing restates a period the rule reads, the test is inconclusive, and the Result says what was read and what was missing.

If no

Return on invested capital falls

Yes: cash from operations stays strong at or above 112 percent of revenue as cloud billings convert quickly to cash.

If yes

The case against it

No: rising upfront cloud infrastructure costs or payment timing pull operating cash flow below 112 percent of revenue.

No hyperscaler can afford to slow down alone: slowing risks losing power, chips, talent, model partners, customers and the next computing platform while AI threatens their core cash-cow businesses; supply scarcity means capacity secured by one is…

The case against it

Oguz ErkanJul 5

Hyperscaler capex turns ROI positive at roughly 1.7-1.8x revenue-to-depreciation ratio with 8% cost of capital, 30% operating margin, and 5-year depreciation. Currently at 1.2x with only 3-4% of global population paying for AI. As paying population…

What would change the Call
  • A swing in customer payment timing or a surge in infrastructure spending tied to new cloud contracts would move the ratio past or below the line.

The thesis

Will Oracle report, in any fiscal quarter reported between 2026-11-15 and 2027-12-31, a year-over-year decline in total gross margin percentage of 300 basis points or more alongside a capex guidance increase?

Oracle, the leveraged builder of AI capacity against concentrated counterparties, will show the telecom-builder signature: gross margin compressing through the utilization floor while capex guidance rises and RPO converts slowly.
