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.

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Wednesday, March 26, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these Oracle pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Oracle
Bull Case

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

Oracle has recently increased its quarterly dividend from $0.40 to $0.50, reflecting a commitment to returning value to shareholders. This represents a 1.35% dividend yield, which can be attractive for income-focused investors.
The stock is currently trading at $147.18, which may present a buying opportunity for investors looking for potential growth, especially considering the company's market cap of approximately $411.65 billion.
Analysts have a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" for Oracle, with a target price averaging around $179.20, indicating potential upside from the current trading price.
Oracle's revenue has shown a year-over-year increase of 6.4%, demonstrating growth in its business operations, which can be a positive indicator for future performance.
Insider ownership stands at 42.20%, suggesting that executives have a significant stake in the company, which can align their interests with those of shareholders and potentially lead to better decision-making.

Oracle
Bear Case

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

Oracle's recent earnings report showed a miss on EPS estimates, with reported earnings of $1.47 compared to the consensus estimate of $1.49, which may raise concerns about the company's short-term profitability.
The stock has experienced volatility, recently trading down by 3.9%, which could indicate market uncertainty and potential risks for investors looking for stability.
With a debt-to-equity ratio of 5.65, Oracle has a high level of debt compared to its equity, which can pose risks, especially in a rising interest rate environment.
Some analysts have issued lower price targets, with Stifel Nicolaus reducing their target from $175.00 to $150.00, suggesting that there may be differing opinions on the stock's future performance.
42.44% of Oracle's stock is owned by institutional investors, which can lead to increased volatility if these investors decide to sell their positions, impacting the stock price negatively.
