In the fiscal year 2024, Microsoft Corporation reported a net income of over 88.14 billion U.S. dollars, an increase from fiscal year 2023 figure of 72.36 billion U.S. dollars. Microsoft’s sales revenue also peaked in fiscal year 2024 at 245 billion U.S. dollars. Microsoft Corporation Since its foundation in 1975, Microsoft has grown into one of the most successful tech firms in the world and has experienced decades of continued success. Some of the company’s major business ventures include its Windows operating system, its software packages such as Microsoft Office, its lines of consumer electronics, as well as newer offerings such as cloud computing solutions. Since 2014, Microsoft’s intelligent cloud segment has experienced consistent growth and has become the biggest revenue earner for the company. The technology industry As technology becomes further integrated into nearly all aspects of daily life, companies such as Apple, Alphabet, and Microsoft have grown into some of the most powerful entities in the world. Spending in the IT industry alone amounts to trillions of dollars each year, meaning that these tech giants are well-positioned for continued success. The fiscal year end of the company is June, 30th.

In the second quarter of the fiscal year 2025, Microsoft's net income amounted to around 24 billion U.S. dollars, with over two billion U.S. dollars higher compared to the corresponding quarter in the previous fiscal year.

Microsoft Corporation’s quarterly revenue quadrupled within the last 12 years, increasing from 14.45 billion U.S. dollars in the third quarter of 2008 to over 69 billion in the second quarter of their 2025 fiscal year. Over the highlighted period, the largest increase in quarterly revenue occurred between the first and second quarters of 2010, with revenue increasing by more than six billion U.S. dollars. Intelligent Cloud segment leads Microsoft’s revenues    Founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft Corporation is an American multinational technology company that develops and sells a wide range of consumer and enterprise software, hardware, services, and consumer electronics. In its 2021 financial year, Microsoft generated most of its revenue from its Intelligent Cloud segment, which includes Microsoft's popular cloud flatform Azure. The Productivity and Business Processes segment, including the successful line of the Office products, also brings in an increasing amount of revenues. The rapid growths in these segments contributed to making 2021 the company’s most successful year in terms of annual revenue, which amounted to more than 168 billion U.S. dollars. Microsoft's income growth is equally impressive Not only has Microsoft seen great evolution in terms of sales, the company has been making better and better profits as well. Microsoft's annual net income reached 73 billion U.S. dollars in fiscal year 2022, delivering an impressive margin of over 35 percent. In a time when the COVID-19 pandemic imposed social distancing and remote working practices onto businesses and individuals, technology companies such as Microsoft provide the essential tools that make such practices possible. Their businesses grow as a result.

Microsoft's global revenue grew from fiscal year 2022 to 2024, increasing by about seven percent year-on-year and reaching over 245 billion U.S. dollars. This marks another record-setting year for the software giant in terms of sales revenue. Microsoft and Bill Gates Microsoft has become a constant figure among the world’s most valuable brands. Its founder Bill Gates is presently, and perhaps unsurprisingly, one of the richest men in the United States and among the richest billionaires worldwide, among other well-known figures such as Warren Buffet, Carlos Slim Helu, and Larry Ellison. In addition to his status as an entrepreneur, Bill Gates is also known for his philanthropy. In 2000, together with his wife, they created the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The foundation has donated a considerable amount of money, in particular in the area of research and development of treatments for neglected diseases. While Bill Gates no longer heads the Microsoft Corporation, the company itself continues to show strong results around the world, with versions of its most well-known product, the Windows operating system, consistently leading the home operating system market. The Microsoft Office suite also remains the most widely used office software around the world, with few comparable competitors in sight. The fiscal year end of the company is June, 30th.

In Microsoft's fiscal year 2024, which spanned from July 2023 to June 2024, gaming revenue reached 15.47 billion U.S. dollars, down from 21.5 billion U.S. dollars in the previous fiscal period. Microsoft's gaming segment includes revenues from Xbox hardware and Xbox content and services, comprising digital transactions, Xbox Game Pass and other subscriptions, video games, third-party video game royalties, cloud services, and advertising. Microsoft is earning the fruits of its acquisition labor In recent years, Microsoft has made many strategic acquisitions to grow its gaming segment, and these efforts have paid off. Finally closing its purchase of Activision Blizzard after about 20 months of regulatory negotiations across the globe, this success was immediately reflected in the company’s quarterly gaming revenue, which jumped from 3.9 billion U.S. dollars to 7.1 billion U.S. dollars between October and December 2023. Of course, part of this growth is also the Christmas season, which is responsible for the biggest months in gaming sales. However, revenue in the following quarter settled back to 5.4 billion U.S. dollars, which is significantly higher than the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Layoffs at Microsoft despite gaming segment growth Despite Microsoft’s financial success in its gaming segment, the company has announced and performed several rounds of layoffs at many of its owned gaming companies, as well as shuttering some game studios entirely. In January 2024, mere months after closing its record-breaking Activision Blizzard deal, Microsoft laid off 1,900 Activision Blizzard, ZeniMax, and Xbox employees, citing “areas of overlap” and an “alignment of strategy” and growth. These layoffs are on par with the current state of the industry – an early 2024 survey of game developers found that about a third of respondents had experienced layoffs in the last 12 months.

Thanks in part to the rapid growth in these two areas, 2024 proved to be the company’s most successful year ever in terms of annual revenue, with the total figure reaching over 245 billion dollars. Microsoft Corporation Since its foundation in 1975, Microsoft has grown into one of the most successful tech firms in the world and has experienced years of continued success. In order to ensure that this growth persists, the company has added tens of thousands of employees over the past decade and invested billions into research and development. Some of Microsoft’s major business ventures include its Windows operating system, various lines of consumer electronics, software packages such as Microsoft Office, as well as newer offerings such as cloud computing capabilities. Intelligent cloud segment As Microsoft's fastest-growing business, intelligent cloud replaced the more personal computing segment in FY2020 to become the company's largest business segment. The intelligent cloud segment contains Microsoft's public, private, and hybrid server products and cloud services, such as Azure, SQL Server, etc. Together with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Azure is one of the most popular cloud infrastructure as a service (IaaS) offerings. The intelligent cloud segment, however, does not reflect the totality of Microsoft's cloud business, as Office 365 - the company's popular cloud collaboration solution - is grouped under the productivity and business processes segment. The software giant has established a firm footing in the fast-growing cloud market.

The latest version of iOS, iOS 18, was released in September 2024, while the most recent Android iteration, Android 15, was made available in September 2023.
