The consensus is the average of many analysts' forecasts. The more analysts behind a number, the less likely it is to be a single error—but forecast agreement is never a guarantee of the actual result.
| Period | EPS estimate | EPS a year ago | Change | Revenue forecast | Analysts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current quarter | 0.95 | 1.10 | -13.87% | $4.71 bn | 17 |

Revenue and margins quarter by quarter
Margin shows how much of sales a company retains. Rising revenue with shrinking margins means growth is coming at the expense of profitability—and that's usually more interesting than sales growth alone.
| Quarter | Revenue | Gross margin | Operating margin | Net margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| May 31, 2026 | $4.61 bn | 34.79% | 15.52% | -43.56% |
| February 28, 2026 | $4.44 bn | 30.81% | 12.49% | 6.83% |
| November 30, 2025 | $4.86 bn | 34.82% | 17.49% | 8.50% |
| August 31, 2025 | $4.52 bn | 33.93% | 15.22% | 26.66% |
