The company reported FY2026 revenue of $331.8 billion and net income of $133.7 billion, up from $281.7 billion and $101.8 billion, respectively, in FY2025.
Microsoft rose 25.29%, from $393.35 to $492.81, extending a sharp rally led by strong quarterly results and rosy guidance that investors viewed as evidence of durable Azure and artificial-intelligence demand. The largest move came on July 30, when the stock jumped to $451.10 on 110.2 million shares, followed by another gain on July 31 as the earnings reaction continued. Microsoft then advanced 4.9% on August 3 and 1.1% on August 4, without a material reversal. Broader risk appetite also helped: on August 3, the S&P 500, Dow and Nasdaq 100 rose 1.48%, 1.32% and 1.78%, respectively, as Middle East tensions eased.
