Software giant Oracle Corp. reported higher profit and roughly
flat revenue in the latest quarter.
The Silicon Valley company, best known for its corporate
database software, reported $9.61 billion in revenue for the
quarter ended Nov. 30, missing analysts' projected $9.65 billion,
according to FactSet.
Profit for the second quarter rose to $2.31 billion, or 69 cents
a share. On an adjusted basis, profit rose to 90 cents a year, from
80 cents a share a year earlier. Analysts surveyed by FactSet
expected a profit of 68 cents a share, or 89 cents a share as
adjusted.
It was the company's first earnings report since the October
death of Mark Hurd, who had shared the post of chief executive with
Safra Catz.
