Brian Sozzi: OCI and total Cloud growth meet forecasts but stock falls on FY27 margin outlook
OCI, Cloud beat estimates but stock drops

Brian Sozzi, reporter / analyst at Yahoo Finance, reviews the latest Stifel analysis, highlighting that while OCI reported 92 percent year-over-year growth in constant currency and total Cloud revenue rose 46 percent, these metrics were in line with expectations.

Despite this, the stock declined approximately 12 percent in after-hours trading as management's commentary around FY27 profitability suggests gross margins may decrease more than previously anticipated.

Brian Sozzi has previously tracked pre-market swings, noting that Arm Holdings and ServiceNow jumped while Qualcomm and Intel fell following Nvidia’s recent keynote. He has also reported on historical Nasdaq volatility, highlighting that the index often breaks Friday lows shortly afterward when dropping 4% or more. These reports provide context for continued sharp moves following corporate earnings and guidance.
