Its latest quarter delivered another stunner, with remaining performance obligations (RPO) soaring 433% to a colossal $523.3 billion. That’s future revenue locked in.And these aren’t nebulous contracts. Larry Ellison has heavyweight names — Meta and Nvidia — on the hook. Still, with Wall Street growing wary of circular AI-era deals, investors may squint at numbers this big.But why the investor jitters? Was a roughly $100 million revenue miss really enough to sour sentiment, or was it simply the spark that ignited deeper concerns?<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Oracle Earns Revenue</h2>Austin, Texas-based Oracle derived roughly half of its fiscal year 2026 second-quarter revenue from its cloud business, with software and services making up 37% and 9%, respectively. Hardware contributed a measly $776 million to the $16.06 billion total.The $8 billion in cloud revenue Oracle earned in Q2 is split evenly between cloud infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) and cloud application or SaaS. The former unit comprises a host of enterprise-grade cloud services, including compute, storage, networking, platform-as-a-service (PaaS) services for databases, analytics, etc.On the earnings call, Principal Financial Officer Douglas Kehring said cloud infrastructure revenue jumped 66% year over year (YoY), with GPU-related revenue outperforming with a 177% growth clip, according to a transcript provided by Koyfin.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Red Flag #1: Soaring RPO&nbsp;</h2>RPO, a metric that includes invoiced but not earned (deferred revenue), and contracted but not yet invoiced (backlog), has seen a stratospheric climb since Oracle’s fiscal first quarter.&nbsp;<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Oracles_RPO_Surge_png_dd3311f4c8.webp" alt="Oracles_RPO_Surge.png">Source: Fiscal.aiOracle’s dependence on a small group of major customers—a classic case of customer concentration risk—continues to cast a shadow over its outlook. Its high-profile alliance with OpenAI has added to that scrutiny. In late September, OpenAI said the late-July agreement to build up to 4.5 GW of capacity amounts to more than $300 billion over five years. The deal falls under the broader, private “Stargate” AI-infrastructure initiative announced by the Trump administration with significant fanfare shortly after the president’s inauguration in January.The latest earnings report didn’t break out how much of that $523.3 billion in RPO will convert to revenue in the next 12 months. On the call, Kehring noted a 40% growth in 12-month RPO, versus 25% in Q1 and 21% a year ago — a far cry from the 433% surge in total RPO that Oracle highlighted, lending some credibility to those critics who pan it as a ‘Shell Game.’ Adding to the uncertainty is OpenAI’s fragile financial footing. According to internal documents cited by the Wall Street Journal last month, the Sam Altman-led ChatGPT maker&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/openai-anthropic-profitability-e9f5bcd6">expects</a> to rack up $74 billion in losses in 2028 as computing costs soar. Whether a loss-making OpenAI can ultimately meet its financial commitments to Oracle has become the central question.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Red Flag #2: Negative Free Cash Flow</h2>Oracle generated a negative free cash flow (FCF) of $10 billion in Q2. FCF is vital for a company as it represents how much real cash, or spendable cash, is left to cover costs and keep the business running. Technically, it is cash generated from core operations less capital expenditure (capex).<h4 class="st-heading-4">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Oracle’s FCF Deep In Red</h4><figure class="table" style="width:94.34%;"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col style="width:16.31%;"><col style="width:17.09%;"><col style="width:14.79%;"><col style="width:15.35%;"><col style="width:14.43%;"><col style="width:12.6%;"><col style="width:9.43%;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td>Q2'26</td><td>Q1'26</td><td>Q4'25</td><td>Q3'25</td><td>Q2'25</td><td>Q1'25</td></tr><tr><td>FCF</td><td>-$13.2B</td><td>-$5.9B</td><td>-$394M</td><td>+$5.8B</td><td>+$9.5B</td><td>+$11.3B</td></tr><tr><td>Capex</td><td>+$33.5B</td><td>+$27.4B</td><td>+$21.2B</td><td>+14.9B</td><td>+$10.8B</td><td>+$7.9B</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Red Flag #3: Heavy Debt Burden</h2>Oracle’s debt-to-equity ratio, a key measure of financial health, is currently at 4.3 times, meaning it has roughly $4 in debt for $1 in equity, which, by any measure, is significant leverage.&nbsp;<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Oracles_Debt_Pile_png_65554d3068.webp" alt="Oracles_Debt_Pile.png">Source:&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://fiscal.ai">Fiscal.ai</a>A comparison with hyperscaler peers underscores Oracle's precarious financial health.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/ORCL_vs_Hyperscaler_Peers_How_Debt_Equity_Ratio_Stack_Up_png_49db0021c3.webp" alt="ORCL_vs_Hyperscaler_Peers_How_DebtEquity_Ratio_Stack_Up.png">Source: Fiscal.aiFollowing the quarterly results, Oracle credit default swaps (CDS) — the cost of protecting its debt against a potential default — rose about 0.05 percentage point to 124.6 basis points a year over five years, Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-10/oracle-credit-risk-gauge-deteriorates-after-earnings-report">reported</a>, citing ICE Data.&nbsp;The metric rises as investor confidence in credit quality takes a beating, and the recent quotes suggest investors now require slightly more compensation to insure against default.The move is all the more critical for AI plays, as Oracle’s credit derivatives are often considered a barometer of AI risk.

The planned divestment was required by a law passed by the previous Joe Biden administration, citing security concerns posed by the platform. The law also sought a ban on the platform in the U.S. in the event of non-compliance.The plan would reduce ByteDance’s stake to less than 20%, with the Chinese company getting only one board representation and being excluded from TikTok U.S.’s security committee.&nbsp;TikTok would be majority-owned by U.S. investors, operated in the U.S. by a board of directors with national security and cybersecurity credentials, and subject to strict rules to protect Americans’ data and our national security.The White House statement also stated that Oracle would serve as TikTok’s security provider, monitoring and ensuring the safety of the latter’s operations in the U.S. All U.S. user data would be stored in a trusted, secure, and purpose-built cloud environment in the U.S. run by Oracle. The Trump administration also directed Attorney General Pamela Bondi not to enforce the Biden administration’s TikTok law for 120 days, allowing the divestiture to be completed.&nbsp;A high-level delegation from the U.S. and China, headed by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and&nbsp; Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, discussed the proposed deal at talks held in Madrid earlier this month.&nbsp;Vice President J.D.
