The net profit margin of Oracle Corporation has exhibited notable fluctuations over the observed period from May 31, 2021, to May 31, 2025. Specifically, at the end of fiscal year 2021, the net profit margin was recorded at 33.96%, indicating a relatively high level of profitability relative to revenue. However, by fiscal year 2022, there was a significant decline to 15.83%, representing a reduction of approximately 18 percentage points. This sharp decrease may suggest increased costs, reduced margins, or other factors impacting profitability during that period.

Following this downturn, the net profit margin showed modest recovery in the subsequent years. By May 31, 2023, the margin increased slightly to 17.02%, indicating some improvement in profitability efficiency. The upward trend continued into fiscal year 2024, with the net profit margin reaching 19.76%. The most recent data for fiscal year 2025 indicates further improvement, with the margin rising to 21.68%.

Overall, the trend suggests that after a significant decline in fiscal year 2022, Oracle has gradually stabilized and improved its profitability margins over the subsequent years. The current net profit margin of 21.68% reflects an increase, although it has not yet returned to the peak level observed in FY 2021. The trajectory indicates a potential recovery or optimization of operational efficiencies, but ongoing monitoring would be necessary to assess whether this momentum continues.
