About Microsoft Corp

Microsoft is a global technology company that makes software, cloud services, devices and online platforms. Its main offerings include the Azure cloud platform, Windows, its Office productivity tools, Dynamics business applications, LinkedIn, Xbox gaming and Surface devices. Revenue comes from subscriptions, software licences, usage-based cloud fees, advertising and hardware sales, with business customers contributing a very large share of the total.

Net debt to EBITDA is -0.1 times, which means the company holds more cash than debt. It pays a dividend, and the yield is 0.7%. Overall, the X-Ray Score is 61 out of 100.

Debt = borrowings plus lease liabilities. Cash & securities = cash, equivalents and short-term marketable securities (long-term securities are not counted, so net cash can be understated for companies like Apple). Net debt = debt minus cash & securities. Source: latest SEC 10-Q/10-K. EBIT / EV yield = operating profit divided by market cap plus net debt.
Fair value estimate
$528model spread $485 – $572
Fair −0.1% to fair value
Equal blend of three models: peer multiples, a fundamentals-adjusted multiple (growth, ROIC and margin) and a 10-year DCF scaled to the market's average. Earnings-power value (no growth) is a floor and not part of the blend. Model uncertainty is Medium, so the safety margin is 30%.
