Oracle - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts.

Oracle
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Oracle:

Oracle has a strong market capitalization of $471.81 billion, indicating its significant presence and stability in the enterprise software sector.
The company reported a revenue increase of 8.6% year-over-year, showcasing its growth potential and ability to generate higher sales.
With a current stock price around $168.97, Oracle is trading near its 50-day moving average, suggesting a stable price trend that may attract investors.

Oracle's recent quarterly earnings showed a net margin of 21.16%, reflecting efficient management and profitability, which can be appealing to investors looking for solid returns.

Oracle
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Oracle for these reasons:

The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 5.65, which may indicate financial risk and reliance on debt financing, potentially affecting its long-term stability.
Oracle's recent earnings report showed that it missed analysts' consensus estimates for earnings per share by $0.01, which could raise concerns about its performance relative to expectations.
Despite a strong revenue growth, the quick ratio of 0.81 suggests that Oracle may face challenges in meeting its short-term liabilities, which could be a red flag for investors.
One research analyst has rated the stock with a sell rating, indicating that there are differing opinions on the stock's future performance, which could create uncertainty for potential investors.
Recent insider selling, including a significant sale by the CEO, may raise concerns about the company's future prospects and could signal a lack of confidence from leadership.
