Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of deposits at major banks, money market funds and securities with original maturities of 90 days or less. The increase in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of May 31, 2026 versus May 31, 2025 was driven by $42.7 billion of net proceeds from senior notes, $32.0 billion of cash inflows from operations, $5.0 billion of net proceeds from Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and $4.9 billion of proceeds from the sale of investments (primarily Ampere). These inflows were partially offset by $55.7 billion of cash used for capital expenditures, $5.8 billion of cash used to pay dividends and $5.0 billion of cash used for scheduled debt repayments during fiscal 2026. Oracle warns that cash and cash equivalents may be impacted by these and other variable factors in future periods.
