Michael Turrin has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Microsoft’s strong performance and future potential. The company’s third-quarter results demonstrated resilience against macroeconomic challenges, with significant growth in Azure, particularly in AI-related services. This growth exceeded expectations and suggests a stable commercial business environment.
Furthermore, Microsoft’s guidance for the fourth quarter indicates continued robust performance, with revenue projections surpassing market expectations. The company’s capital expenditure outlook remains steady, with a strategic shift towards assets that align with revenue growth. Additionally, Microsoft’s consistent margin performance, despite increased AI investments, underscores its operational efficiency. These factors collectively support Turrin’s positive outlook on Microsoft’s stock.
In another report released today, Jefferies also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $550.00 price target.
