Microsoft has reported strong financial results for Q1 FY25, driven by significant growth in its AI and cloud businesses. The company posted a revenue of $65.6 billion, a 16% year-over-year increase, and a net profit of $24.7 billion, up 13% from the previous year. Operating profit reached $30.6 billion. Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $3.30, surpassing expectations of $3.09. The AI segment has become Microsoft's fastest-growing business, with an annual revenue run rate expected to surpass $10 billion next quarter. Despite these gains, Microsoft's stock fell by 5% due to concerns over slowing Azure revenue growth and rising AI-related expenditures. Azure's revenue grew by 33%, but the forecasted growth for the next fiscal quarter is expected to slow to 31-32%. Commercial cloud revenue increased by 22%.
