Microsoft’s AI business reached $37B annualized revenue run rate (+123% YoY), Azure grew 40% in FY2026 Q3, and cloud revenue hit $54.5B. Market focuses on CapEx diluting FCF, but incremental revenue from AI/cloud already visible; DCF suggests ~50% upside if returns on capital prove attractive. Buy below $400 based on long-term earnings power from enterprise AI adoption and sticky ecosystem moat. AI CapEx fails to generate sufficient ROIC; hyperscale competition from AWS/GOOGL; margin compression from increased infrastructure spending.
