FY27 Segments and Investor Metrics

Adjusted Outlook Our updated segment reporting Satya

Nadella, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Microsoft There’s no question AI represents a profound shift in both technology and business. It is changing what we build and how we operate, and it is blurring the boundaries between our products and reshaping our business models. To reflect this and provide increased transparency to investors, we are updating our financial reporting to mirror how the business is operating, how we allocate resources, and where we are headed.

Beginning with FY27, we will transition from our current three reporting segments, Productivity and Business Processes, Intelligent Cloud, and More Personal Computing, to two segments: Agents and Infra and Devices and Consumer. Within each of these segments, you will have full transparency of quarterly revenue across each of our key businesses, including Azure, M365 Cloud, Industry solutions, and ads. We will continue to focus on security, quality, and innovation in everything we do. We want every organization to own its own continuous learning loop so it retains its core IP, and to ensure AI empowers every person, amplifying their agency and ambition. That is what we mean by a frontier ecosystem, ensuring value flows and accrues across people, companies, industries, and countries, thereby leading to broad-based economic growth. As we build this ecosystem, the layers of our stack are not separate opportunities but reinforce each other. Investing in one strengthens the others and allows us to deliver customer value in a differentiated way.

Our updated segment reporting Satya

Nadella, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Microsoft Our Agents and Infra segment brings together our high-value apps and agents, including Microsoft 365 and GitHub, our multi-model system grounded in rich-enterprise context, and global-scale

Azure infrastructure. Under this reporting structure, Azure becomes more purely our consumption-based platform and infrastructure business. Microsoft 365 Cloud brings together our high-value apps and agents across knowledge work, code, and security (Security has largely been part of this business already; the new structure makes that alignment clearer). We are also bringing together the reporting of all our business process solutions as part of the new Industry solutions metric. This integrated architecture across agents and infra is how we think about engaging with customers and driving their outcomes, building products, and monetization. It’s no longer about building or selling one app or service, but about connecting the entire trajectory of a “job to be done.”

This expands our opportunity across every layer of the stack, from apps and agents that compress and complete tasks, workflows, and processes; to model systems that power agent reasoning and actions; to infrastructure that trains and serves those models and agent loops in the most efficient way. Our Devices and Consumer segment is where we bring ubiquitous intelligence to billions of people every day, with expansive TAMs across search and advertising, XBOX, and Windows. This reporting structure brings our advertising businesses together better reflecting their shared economics and the increasingly connected experiences across search, browsing, content discovery, and transactions.

Across our tech stack, business models, and go-to-market, we are well positioned to generate high returns on invested capital because of the built-in diversification of our businesses, architectural coherence of our stack, and operational synergies.

I have never been more confident in the opportunity ahead. Thank you for your continued investment in Microsoft. Satya

Agents and Infra will include the Microsoft Cloud, productivity and server licensing, and our consulting and support businesses.
