Microsoft Report Strong Q2 Results

Microsoft today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2005. Q2 saw revenues of $10.82 billion, a 7% increase on the previous period, along side operating income of $4.75 billion and net income of $3.46 billion. Industry analyst Charles Di Bona told Reuters that Microsoft’s results were strong, and that “you can’t punch a hole in these numbers”.

“Our record revenue came from across-the-board strength in both our business and consumer segments” said John Connors, chief financial officer at Microsoft. “And our long-term approach to growing new businesses is paying off. Home and Entertainment delivered its first profitable quarter and all three of the company’s emerging businesses combined generated a nearly $700 million improvement in operating results compared to the second quarter of last fiscal year.”
