Microsoft Reports A $2.1B Q4 Loss

Microsoft Reports A $2.1B Q4 Loss

Microsoft Corp. has announced that revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 were $22.2 billion. Gross margin, operating loss, and loss per share for the quarter were $14.7 billion, $(2.1) billion, and $(0.40) per share, respectively.

These results include the impact of a $7.5 billion non-cash impairment charge related to assets associated with the acquisition of the Nokia Devices and Services (NDS) business, in addition to a restructuring charge of $780 million. There was also a charge of $160 million related to the previously announced integration and restructuring plan. Combined, these items totaled $8.4 billion or a $1.02 per share negative impact. Excluding this impact, operating income and EPS would have been $6.4 billion and $0.62, respectively. During the quarter, Microsoft returned $6.7 billion to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends.

The following table reconciles these financial results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to Non-GAAP financial results. Microsoft has provided this Non-GAAP financial information to aid investors in better understanding the company’s performance. All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in the last fiscal year.

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currencies had a significant impact on results in the quarter.  Excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on the GAAP amounts, on a constant currency basis, revenue and gross margin would have declined 2% and 3%, and operating income and EPS would have declined 129% and 176%, respectively.  Excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on the Non-GAAP amounts, on a constant currency basis, revenue and gross margin would have declined 2% and 3%, respectively, and operating income and EPS would have declined 1% and increased 8%, respectively.

Imagine where they'd be if Yahoo! had had sense enough to take the $40B Ballmer offered & run...that is one example of someone's prejudice against Microsoft literally rescuing Microsoft from itself...Good thing for the company that Ballmer has retired...

Maybe they'd have more profit if... I dunno... their damn consoles had more than 50% the GPU power of the competitor so they'd sell a bit more. Not using a gimped memory system that restricts resolutions really awkwardly would have helped too.

That and maybe not having an OS interface so ugly that they had to skip an entire generation's name to try to disassociate it from the past stigma and give it out for free to try to get people to upgrade.

Seriously I will never get used to the pseudo retro look of MS's Metro.

Biggest reason they ain't selling is their unveiling the damn console failure on epic scale + not having major exclusives out in a year. Yet it is still selling fine and not giving them losses. If you cut out the nokia part from their losses they would have turned over 3 billion profit.

MS will come out from that, one way or another...

The biggest problem with MS now is that they have over 80% desktop market share, and Windows Operating Systems are in stagnation since Windows XP, and in fact, they are worse in some ways, huge resources are spent in protecting the product (including computing resources of end user), and far less in protecting consumer, you simply can't have both and good functionality.

I guess I don't like Windows domination on desktop market, same as I do not like Google domination of mobile market..., tho, google have far better/more fair ways compared to MS.

I'm glad i finished with Windows for personal use, and I'm sad I didn't do that much earlier (it would save me lot's of nervs lol).
