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. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Oracle
Bull Case

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

Oracle has received multiple upgrades from investment analysts, with target prices recently raised, indicating strong market confidence in the company's future performance.
The current stock price is around $235, reflecting a significant increase from its twelve-month low, suggesting a positive trend in investor sentiment.
Oracle's recent quarterly earnings report showed a net margin of over 21%, indicating strong profitability and efficient cost management.
With a market capitalization exceeding $660 billion, Oracle is positioned as a major player in the enterprise software market, which can provide stability and growth potential for investors.
Insider ownership is substantial, with corporate insiders holding over 42% of the stock, which often aligns management's interests with those of shareholders, potentially leading to better decision-making.

Oracle
Bear Case

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

The stock has experienced fluctuations, with a recent drop of about 5.9%, which may indicate volatility and uncertainty in the market.
Oracle has a high price-to-earnings ratio, suggesting that the stock may be overvalued compared to its earnings, which could deter value-focused investors.
Recent insider selling, including significant transactions by executives, may raise concerns about the company's future prospects and management confidence.
The company's debt-to-equity ratio is relatively high, which could indicate increased financial risk, especially in a rising interest rate environment.
Despite strong earnings, the competitive landscape in the software industry is intense, and Oracle may face challenges in maintaining its market position against emerging technologies and competitors.
