Business Outlook

Quarterly Highlights, Product Releases, and Enhancements

Every quarter Microsoft delivers hundreds of products, either as new releases, services, or enhancements to current products and services. These releases are a result of significant research and development investments, made over multiple years, designed to help customers be more productive and secure and to deliver differentiated value across the cloud and the edge.

Here are the major product releases and other highlights for the quarter, organized by product categories, to help illustrate how we are accelerating innovation across our businesses while expanding our market opportunities.

Webcast Details

Satya Nadella, chief executive officer, Amy Hood, executive vice president and chief financial officer, Frank Brod, chief accounting officer, Keith Dolliver, deputy general counsel, and Michael Spencer, general manager of investor relations, will host a conference call and webcast at 2:30 p.m. Pacific time (5:30 p.m. Eastern time) today to discuss details of the company’s performance for the quarter and certain forward-looking information. The session may be accessed at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/investor. The webcast will be available for replay through the close of business on July 18, 2020.

Non-GAAP Definition

Transfer of Intangible Properties. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, in response to the TCJA and recently issued regulations, we transferred certain intangible properties held by our foreign subsidiaries to the United States and Ireland. The transfers of intangible properties resulted in a net $2.6 billion tax benefit recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, as the value of future tax deductions exceeded the current tax liability from foreign jurisdictions and United States Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) tax.

The TCJA Impact. We recorded a net charge of $157 million during the twelve months ended June 30, 2019 related to the TCJA. We recorded a net benefit of $104 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and a net charge of $13.7 billion during the twelve months ended June 30, 2018 related to the TCJA.

We have provided non-GAAP financial measures related to the transfer of intangible properties and the TCJA to aid investors in better understanding our performance. We believe these non-GAAP measures assist investors by providing additional insight into our operational performance and help clarify trends affecting our business. For comparability of reporting, management considers non-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP financial results in evaluating business performance. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Constant Currency

Microsoft presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the average exchange rates from the comparative period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods. All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in the last fiscal year. Microsoft has provided this non-GAAP financial information to aid investors in better understanding our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

FOURTH QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in the last fiscal year. Please refer to the reconciliation of our GAAP and non-GAAP financial results in the table provided above for additional information.

SUMMARY

Revenue was $33.7 billion and increased 12%, driven by growth across each of our segments.

Gross margin was $23.3 billion and increased 15%, driven by growth across each of our segments. Gross margin percentage increased, driven by gross margin percentage improvement in More Personal Computing and Productivity and Business Processes, and favorable segment sales mix. Gross margin included a 6 percentage point improvement in commercial cloud, primarily from Azure.

Operating income was $12.4 billion and increased 20%, driven by growth across each of our segments.

Net income was $13.2 billion and increased 49%. Non-GAAP net income was $10.6 billion and increased 21%, excluding the net $2.6 billion income tax benefit in the current year and the net $104 million income tax benefit in the prior year. These net tax benefits are explained in the Income Taxes section below.

Diluted earnings per share was $1.71 and increased 50%. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share was $1.37 and increased 21%, excluding $0.34 related to the net tax benefit in the current year and $0.01 related to the net tax benefit in the prior year.

Revenue, gross margin, and operating income included an unfavorable foreign currency impact of 2%, 2%, and 4%, respectively.

SEGMENT INFORMATION

Productivity and Business Processes

Revenue increased $1.4 billion or 14%.

 

  •  

Office Commercial revenue increased $891 million or 14%, driven by Office 365 Commercial, offset in part by lower revenue from products licensed on-premises, reflecting a continued shift to cloud offerings. Office 365 Commercial revenue grew 31%, due to growth in seats and higher average revenue per user.

 

  •  

Office Consumer revenue increased $57 million or 6%, driven by Office 365 Consumer, due to recurring subscription revenue and transactional strength in Japan.

 

  •  

LinkedIn revenue increased $371 million or 25%, driven by growth across each line of business.

 

  •  

Dynamics revenue increased 12%, driven by Dynamics 365 growth.

Operating income increased $878 million or 25%.

 

  •  

Gross margin increased $1.2 billion or 16%, driven by growth in Office Commercial and LinkedIn. Gross margin percentage increased, due to gross margin percentage improvement in LinkedIn and Office 365 Commercial, offset in part by an increased mix of cloud offerings.

 

  •  

Operating expenses increased $314 million or 8%, driven by investments in LinkedIn and cloud engineering.

Revenue, gross margin, and operating income included an unfavorable foreign currency impact of 3%, 4%, and 6%, respectively.

Intelligent Cloud

Revenue increased $1.8 billion or 19%.

 

  •  

Server products and cloud services revenue, including GitHub, increased $1.7 billion or 22%, driven by Azure. Azure revenue growth was 64%, due to higher infrastructure-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service consumption-based and per-user-based services. Server products revenue grew 5%, driven by demand ahead of end of support for SQL Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008, hybrid solutions, and GitHub.

 

  •  

Enterprise Services revenue increased $60 million or 4%, driven by growth in Premier Support Services.

Operating income increased $601 million or 15%.

 

  •  

Gross margin increased $1.3 billion or 19%, driven by growth in server products and cloud services revenue and cloud services scale and efficiencies. Gross margin percentage was relatively unchanged, with gross margin percentage improvement in Azure offset by an increased mix of cloud offerings.

 

  •  

Operating expenses increased $674 million or 23%, driven by investments in cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) engineering, GitHub, and revenue-driven operating expenses.

Revenue, gross margin, and operating income included an unfavorable foreign currency impact of 2%, 2%, and 4%, respectively.

More Personal Computing

Revenue increased $468 million or 4%.

 

  •  

Windows revenue increased $368 million or 7%, driven by growth in Windows OEM and Windows Commercial, offset in part by a decrease in patent licensing. Windows OEM revenue increased 9%. Windows OEM Pro revenue increased 18%, ahead of the commercial PC market, driven by healthy

 

Windows 10 demand, strong momentum in advance of Windows 7 end of support, and increased inventory levels. Windows OEM non-Pro revenue declined 8%, below the consumer PC market, driven by continued pressure in the entry level category. Windows Commercial revenue increased 13%, driven by an increase of multi-year agreements that carry higher in-quarter revenue recognition.

 

  •  

Surface revenue increased $165 million or 14%, driven by strong growth in our commercial segment.

 

  •

INCOME TAXES

The current quarter effective tax rate was (5)% and 16% on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, respectively, compared to 17% and 18% in the prior year. GAAP results include a net income tax benefit of $2.6 billion related to intangible property transfers for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019 and a net income tax benefit of $104 million related to the TCJA for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018. These net tax benefits are excluded from our non-GAAP results.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, in response to the TCJA and recently issued regulations, we transferred certain intangible properties held by our foreign subsidiaries to the United States and Ireland. The transfers of intangible properties resulted in a net $2.6 billion tax benefit recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, as the value of future tax deductions exceeded the current tax liability from foreign jurisdictions and United States GILTI tax.

CONTRACTED NOT RECOGNIZED REVENUE

Contracted not recognized revenue, which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods, was $91 billion as of June 30, 2019, an increase of 25% over the prior year. We expect to recognize approximately 50% of this revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter. Many customers are committing to our products and services for longer contract terms, which is increasing the percentage of contracted revenue that will be recognized beyond the next 12 months.
