  • Microsoft Q3 Beats Estimates with AI Revenue Doubling Year Over Year
    April 29, 2026, 4:58 PM EDT. Microsoft reported third-quarter earnings surpassing analysts' expectations with revenue of $82.89 billion and EPS of $4.27, driven by a 123% year-over-year jump in its AI business revenue to an annual run rate of $37 billion. The company's Copilot service now holds over 20 million paid seats. Despite the strong results, shares fell more than 1%, partly due to Microsoft losing exclusive access to OpenAI's intellectual property, allowing OpenAI to work with other cloud providers. Productivity and Business Processes and Intelligent Cloud segments slightly beat estimates, while More Personal Computing revenue outpaced expectations amid global PC market challenges caused by memory shortages and shipment declines.
