Wedbush Lifts Oracle Price Target to $275, Citing AI Backlog

The call spotlights a $553 billion backlog supporting Oracle’s AI buildout.

Overview

  • Wedbush’s Dan Ives raised Oracle’s price target to $275 on May 13, marking a second increase in under three weeks with an outperform rating.
  • Oracle shares trade about 50% below their September 2025 peak, creating a wide gap between the stock and several analyst targets.
  • The company reports $553 billion in remaining performance obligations, including a five‑year, $300 billion OpenAI cloud commitment that represents signed work not yet recognized as revenue.
  • Oracle Cloud Infrastructure revenue rose 84% year over year to $4.88 billion, while reported AI infrastructure gross margins reached 32%, with higher‑margin multicloud database services helping overall profitability.
  • Analysts remain split on valuation, with targets ranging from $250 to $400, and the June 8 fiscal Q4 report is flagged as the next test for backlog conversion and delivery pace against concerns about heavy spending and $123 billion in net debt.
