Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.

Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 27, 2026, 10:56 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

Quoted token and share units can have different rights, multipliers and dividend treatment. This is not an executable premium or arbitrage signal.

Microsoft just posted one of its strongest quarters in recent memory, and CEO Satya Nadella wants everyone to know the company’s homegrown AI chips are a big reason why. During the fiscal Q4 2026 earnings call, Nadella revealed that Microsoft’s custom silicon has delivered a 40% improvement in inference throughput for its Copilot models, a metric that essentially measures how quickly AI can process and respond to user requests.

Investors liked what they heard. Microsoft shares jumped more than 8% in after-hours trading following the report.

The Maia 200 factor

The star of the show is the Maia 200, Microsoft’s custom AI accelerator chip that was announced in January 2026 and is now humming along in data centers in Iowa and Arizona. According to the company, the chip delivers over 30% better tokens per dollar than the previous hardware in Microsoft’s fleet.

Microsoft’s MAI models running on the Maia 200 also saw a matching 40% performance increase.

Still, Microsoft isn’t abandoning its existing chip suppliers. The company maintains strategic partnerships with both Nvidia and AMD, adopting what amounts to a multi-vendor strategy.

Azure and AI revenue tell the bigger story

Azure revenue grew 43% year-over-year in the quarter ending June 30, 2026.

Microsoft’s AI business as a whole hit an annual recurring revenue run rate above $37 billion. That figure represents a 123% increase from the prior year.

The growth comes at a cost, though. Microsoft spent approximately $41 billion on AI infrastructure capital expenditures in the quarter.
