Microsoft Q1: A Rare Buying Opportunity Emerges

While Microsoft's FY1Q25 revenue beat may sound positive, most of that beat came from the More Personal Computing segment, with Azure only coming in in-line with expectations.
Azure's 34% growth in FY1Q25 is in-line with expectations, but management guided to Azure growth of 31% to 32% next quarter, missing expectations by 1 percentage point.
The key reason for the miss was due to third-party infrastructure providers that are delaying the bringing online of data center capacity.
In turn, because the AI services portion of Azure is largely supply constrained, I expect that in the second half of FY2025, with easing of supply constraints, Microsoft should see an reacceleration in growth due to Azure.
