Rewritten

[removed: Government enforcement under competition] [added: Competition] laws and new market [removed: regulation may limit how we design and market our products.] [added: regulation:] Government agencies closely scrutinize us under U.S. and foreign competition laws.

Rewritten

[removed: Laws and regulations relating to anti-corruption and trade could result in increased costs, fines, criminal penalties, or reputational damage.] [added: Anti-corruption:] The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and other anti-corruption laws and regulations (“Anti-Corruption Laws”) prohibit corrupt payments by our employees, vendors, or agents, and the accounting provisions of the FCPA require us to maintain accurate books and records and adequate internal controls.

Rewritten

From time to time, we receive inquiries from authorities in the U.S. and elsewhere which may be based on reports from employees and others about our business activities [removed: outside the U.S.] and our compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws.

Rewritten

Periodically, we receive such reports directly and investigate [removed: them,] [added: them] and also cooperate with investigations by U.S. and foreign law enforcement authorities.

Rewritten

[added: Trade:] Increasing trade laws, policies, sanctions, and other regulatory requirements also affect our operations in and outside the U.S. relating to trade and investment.

Rewritten

Periods of intense diplomatic or armed [removed: conflict, such as] [added: conflict like] the ongoing conflict in [removed: Ukraine, may] [added: Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict could] result in (1) new and rapidly evolving sanctions and trade restrictions, which may impair trade with sanctioned individuals and countries, and (2) negative impacts to regional trade ecosystems among our customers, partners, and us.

Rewritten

[removed: Laws and regulations relating to the handling of personal data may impede the adoption of our services or result in increased costs, legal claims, fines against us, or reputational damage.] The growth of our Internet- and cloud-based services internationally relies [removed: increasingly] on the movement of data across national boundaries.

Rewritten

[added: Handling of personal data:] Legal requirements relating to the collection, storage, handling, and transfer of personal data [added: globally] continue to evolve.

Rewritten

[removed: EU data protection authorities have and may again block the use of certain U.S.-based services that involve the transfer of data to the U.S. In the EU] [added: New] and [removed: other markets, potential new] [added: evolving] rules and restrictions on the flow of data across borders could increase the cost and complexity of delivering our products and services.

Rewritten

In addition, the EU General Data Protection Regulation [removed: (“GDPR”), which applies to all of our activities conducted from an establishment in the EU or related to products] [added: (“GDPR”)] and [removed: services offered in the EU, imposes] [added: other similar regulations impose] a range of compliance obligations regarding the handling of personal data.

Rewritten

[removed: More recently, the EU has been developing new] [added: New] requirements related to the use of data, including [removed: in] the [removed: Digital Markets Act, the Digital Services Act, and the] Data Act, [removed: that] add additional rules and [removed: restriction] [added: restrictions] on the use of data in our products and services.

Rewritten

[removed: Existing] [added: We are subject to a variety of new, existing,] and [removed: increasing] [added: evolving] legal and regulatory requirements [added: that] could adversely affect our results of operations. We are subject to a wide range of laws, regulations, and legal requirements in the U.S. and globally, including those that may apply to our products and online services offerings, and those that impose requirements related to user privacy, telecommunications, data storage and protection, digital accessibility, advertising, and online [removed: content.][added: safety.]

Rewritten

Laws in several jurisdictions, including EU Member State laws under the European Electronic Communications Code, increasingly define certain of our services as regulated [removed: telecommunications] services.

Rewritten

This trend may continue [removed: and will result in these] [added: with our] offerings [removed: being] [added: becoming] subject to additional data protection, security, [added: digital safety,] law enforcement surveillance, and other obligations.

Rewritten

[added: Cybersecurity:] Legislative [removed: or] [added: and] regulatory [removed: action relating] [added: actions related] to cybersecurity [removed: requirements] may increase the costs [removed: to develop, implement,] [added: associated with developing, implementing,] or [removed: secure] [added: securing] our products and services.

Rewritten

[added: AI:] Legislative and regulatory action is emerging in [removed: the areas of AI and content moderation,] [added: AI,] which could increase costs or restrict opportunity.

Rewritten

How these laws and regulations apply to our business is often unclear, subject to [removed: change over time,] [added: change,] and sometimes may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

Rewritten

Compliance with existing, expanding, or new laws and regulations may involve significant costs [added: and operational efforts,] or require changes in products or business practices that could adversely affect our results of operations.

Rewritten

Noncompliance could result in the imposition of penalties, criminal sanctions, or orders [removed: we] [added: to] cease the alleged noncompliant activity.

Rewritten

[removed: A material] [added: An] adverse impact to our financial condition and results of operations could occur for the period in which the effect of an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and reasonably estimable.

Rewritten

Government contracts [removed: generally] [added: and regulatory requirements] can present risks and challenges not present in private commercial agreements.

Rewritten

[removed: For instance,] [added: If] we [removed: may be subject to government audits and investigations relating to these contracts,] [added: do not satisfy contractual or regulatory requirements,] we could be suspended or debarred as a governmental contractor, we could incur civil and criminal fines and penalties, and under certain circumstances contracts may be rescinded.

Rewritten

We are currently under [removed: Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”)] [added: IRS] audit for prior tax years and have received Notices of Proposed Adjustment (“NOPAs”) from the IRS for the tax years 2004 to 2013.

Rewritten

In addition, changes in U.S. federal and state or international tax laws applicable to corporate multinationals, other global fundamental law changes currently being considered by many countries, including in the U.S., and changes in taxing jurisdictions’ administrative interpretations, decisions, policies, and positions [removed: may materially] [added: could] adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Rewritten

[removed: We are subject to evolving sustainability regulatory requirements and expectations, which exposes us to increased costs and legal] [added: Environmental, Social,] and [removed: reputational risks.] [added: Governance:] Laws, regulations, and policies relating to environmental, social, and governance matters are being developed and formalized in Europe, the U.S., and elsewhere, which may include [added: greenhouse gas emissions and energy usage caps, as well as] specific, target-driven [added: environmental, social, and governance] frameworks and disclosure requirements.

Rewritten

In addition, [added: in 2020] we [removed: have established and publicly] announced goals [removed: and commitments] to become carbon negative, water positive, [removed: zero waste,] and [removed: protect more land than we use.][added: zero waste by 2030.]

Rewritten

Any failure or perceived failure to [removed: pursue or fulfill] [added: meet] our sustainability [removed: goals and commitments] [added: goals,] or to [removed: satisfy] [added: meet] various sustainability [removed: reporting standards or] regulatory [removed: requirements within the timelines we announce, or at all,] [added: requirements,] could result in claims and lawsuits, regulatory actions, [added: penalties,] or damage to our reputation, each of which [removed: may] [added: could] adversely affect our business, operations, financial condition, and results of operations.

Rewritten

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our results of operations [removed: may] [added: could] be adversely affected.

Rewritten

Unauthorized access to or disclosure of source code or other intellectual property also [removed: could increase] [added: increases] the security risks described elsewhere in these risk factors.

New in FY2025

Human review of certain inputs and outputs may be required, including for agentic AI systems that can take actions autonomously.

New in FY2025

These risks may stem from issues related to intellectual property, data privacy, and other claims associated with AI training and outputs.

New in FY2025

They are further compounded by the evolving regulatory landscape, with new laws emerging globally, including the European Union (“EU”).

New in FY2025

There is also rising divergence globally in how to address these issues and impacts, with the result that we will need to navigate a web of different tensions across geographies.

New in FY2025

The processes we use to develop our software are imperfect.

New in FY2025

New, existing, and evolving laws and regulations, or interpretations or applications of existing laws and regulations in a manner inconsistent with our interpretations of such laws and regulations or our practices, may result in modification of our products and services, altered business models and operations, increased costs, reputational damage, and civil or criminal liability.

New in FY2025

Examples include laws and regulations regarding:

New in FY2025

AI regulatory areas include model and system development and deployment, frontier model safety, transparency, and content provenance.

New in FY2025

Restrictions on data flows and outbound investment and customer sensitivities may limit our ability to leverage parts of our global engineering footprint to provide services in certain jurisdictions.

New in FY2025

Increased geopolitical instabilities and changing U.S. Administration priorities create an unpredictable trade landscape.

New in FY2025

U.S. tariff and shifting AI export controls policies, like the AI Diffusion Rule, could increase operational costs, create uncertainty in the continuity of our products, and accelerate sovereignty initiatives among international partners and customers.

New in FY2025

The volatility of U.S. tariffs has triggered economic uncertainty and could impact cloud and devices supply chain cost competitiveness.

New in FY2025

The potential replacement of the recently rescinded AI Diffusion Rule and other potential AI-related rulemakings could adversely affect Microsoft’s business, strategy, and operations.

New in FY2025

The legal and regulatory environment in this area is complex and continues to evolve across multiple jurisdictions.

New in FY2025

As a result, there is considerable uncertainty regarding both current and future compliance obligations.

New in FY2025

This uncertainty increases the risk that we may incur additional operational costs, face regulatory enforcement actions, or encounter challenges in the development and deployment of our products.

New in FY2025

Data protection authorities and governments in the EU and other markets have and may again restrict and/or block the use of services that involve the transfer of data across borders.

New in FY2025

For instance, we are subject to government audits and investigations relating to these contracts, and we are required to provide assurance and attestations about our products and processes.

New in FY2025

Changes in geopolitical conditions also increase the security risks described elsewhere in these risk factors.

Dropped from FY2024

Our AI systems offer users powerful tools and capabilities.

Dropped from FY2024

However, there may be instances where these systems are used in ways that are unintended or inappropriate.

Dropped from FY2024

In addition, some users may also engage in fraudulent or abusive activities through our cloud-based services, such as unauthorized account access, payment fraud, or terms of service violations including cryptocurrency mining or launching cyberattacks.

Dropped from FY2024

While are committed to detecting and controlling such misuse of our cloud-based and AI services, our efforts may not be effective, and we may incur reputational damage or experience adverse impacts to our business and results of operations.

Dropped from FY2024

RISKS RELATING TO THE EVOLUTION OF OUR BUSINESS

Dropped from FY2024

We make significant investments in products and services that may not achieve expected returns. We will continue to make significant investments in research, development, and marketing for existing products, services, and technologies.

Dropped from FY2024

In addition, we are focused on developing new AI platform services and incorporating AI into existing products and services.

Dropped from FY2024

We also invest in the development and acquisition of a variety of hardware for productivity, communication, and entertainment, including PCs, tablets, and gaming devices.

Dropped from FY2024

Investments in new technology are speculative.

Dropped from FY2024

Commercial success depends on many factors, including innovation, developer support, and effective distribution and marketing.

Dropped from FY2024

If customers do not perceive our latest offerings as providing significant new functionality or other value, they may reduce their purchases of new software and hardware products or upgrades, unfavorably affecting revenue.

Dropped from FY2024

We may not achieve significant revenue from new product, service, and distribution channel investments for several years, if at all.

Dropped from FY2024

New products and services may not be profitable or may not achieve operating margins as high as we have experienced historically.

Dropped from FY2024

We may not get engagement in certain features that drive post-sale monetization opportunities.

Dropped from FY2024

Our data-handling practices across our products and services will continue to be under scrutiny.

Dropped from FY2024

Perceptions of mismanagement, driven by regulatory activity or negative public reaction to our practices or product experiences, could negatively impact product and feature adoption.

Dropped from FY2024

Developing new technologies is complex.

Dropped from FY2024

It can require long development and testing periods.

Dropped from FY2024

We could experience significant delays in new releases or significant problems in creating new products or services.

Dropped from FY2024

Acquisitions, joint ventures, and strategic alliances may have an adverse effect on our business. We expect to continue making acquisitions and entering into joint ventures and strategic alliances as part of our long-term business strategy.

Dropped from FY2024

For example, in March 2022 we completed our acquisition of Nuance Communications, Inc., and in October 2023 we completed our acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (“Activision Blizzard”).

Dropped from FY2024

In January 2023 we announced the third phase of our OpenAI strategic partnership.

Dropped from FY2024

Acquisitions and other transactions and arrangements involve significant challenges and risks, including that they do not advance our business strategy, that we get an unsatisfactory return on our investment, that they raise new compliance-related obligations and challenges, that we have difficulty integrating and retaining new employees, business systems, and technology, that they distract management from our other businesses, or that announced transactions may not be completed.

Dropped from FY2024

If an arrangement fails to adequately anticipate changing circumstances and interests of a party, it may result in early termination or renegotiation of the arrangement.

Dropped from FY2024

We also have limited ability to control or influence third parties with whom we have arrangements, which may impact our ability to realize the anticipated benefits.

Dropped from FY2024

The success of these transactions and arrangements depend in part on our ability to leverage them to enhance our existing products and services or develop compelling new ones, as well as the acquired companies’ ability to meet our policies and processes in areas such as data governance, privacy, and cybersecurity.

Dropped from FY2024

It may take longer than expected to realize the full benefits from these transactions and arrangements, such as increased revenue or enhanced efficiencies, or the benefits may ultimately be smaller than we expected.

Dropped from FY2024

In addition, an acquisition may be subject to challenge even after it has been completed.

Dropped from FY2024

For example, the Federal Trade Commission continues to challenge our Activision Blizzard acquisition and could, if successful, alter or unwind the transaction.

Dropped from FY2024

If our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets become impaired, we may be required to record a significant charge to earnings. We acquire other companies and intangible assets and may not realize all the economic benefit from those acquisitions, which could cause an impairment of goodwill or intangibles.

Dropped from FY2024

We review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Dropped from FY2024

We test goodwill for impairment at least annually.

Dropped from FY2024

Factors that may be a change in circumstances, indicating that the carrying value of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets may not be recoverable, include a decline in our stock price and market capitalization, reduced future cash flow estimates, and slower growth rates in industry segments in which we participate.

Dropped from FY2024

We have in the past recorded, and may in the future be required to record, a significant charge in our consolidated financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets is determined, negatively affecting our results of operations.

Dropped from FY2024

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Dropped from FY2024

We expect existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, cash flows from operations, and access to capital markets to continue to be sufficient to fund our operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities, such as dividends, share repurchases, debt maturities, material capital expenditures, and the transition tax related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

Dropped from FY2024

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments

Dropped from FY2024

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaled $75.5 billion and $111.3 billion as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Dropped from FY2024

Equity and other investments were $14.6 billion and $9.9 billion as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Dropped from FY2024

Our short-term investments are primarily intended to facilitate liquidity and capital preservation.

Dropped from FY2024

They consist predominantly of highly liquid investment-grade fixed-income securities, diversified among industries and individual issuers.

Dropped from FY2024

The investments are predominantly U.S. dollar-denominated securities, but also include foreign currency-denominated securities to diversify risk.

Dropped from FY2024

Our fixed-income investments are exposed to interest rate risk and credit risk.

Dropped from FY2024

The credit risk and average maturity of our fixed-income portfolio are managed to achieve economic returns that correlate to certain fixed-income indices.

Dropped from FY2024

The settlement risk related to these investments is insignificant given that the short-term investments held are primarily highly liquid investment-grade fixed-income securities.

Dropped from FY2024

Valuation

Dropped from FY2024

In general, and where applicable, we use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities to determine the fair value of our financial instruments.

Dropped from FY2024

This pricing methodology applies to our Level 1 investments, such as U.S. government securities, common and preferred stock, and mutual funds.

Dropped from FY2024

If quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities are not available to determine fair value, then we use quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities or inputs other than the quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Dropped from FY2024

This pricing methodology applies to our Level 2 investments, such as commercial paper, certificates of deposit, U.S. agency securities, foreign government bonds, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, corporate notes and bonds, and municipal securities.

Dropped from FY2024

Level 3 investments are valued using internally-developed models with unobservable inputs.

Dropped from FY2024

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs are an immaterial portion of our portfolio.

Dropped from FY2024

PART II

Dropped from FY2024

Item 7

Dropped from FY2024

A majority of our investments are priced by pricing vendors and are generally Level 1 or Level 2 investments as these vendors either provide a quoted market price in an active market or use observable inputs for their pricing without applying significant adjustments.

Dropped from FY2024

Broker pricing is used mainly when a quoted price is not available, the investment is not priced by our pricing vendors, or when a broker price is more reflective of fair values in the market in which the investment trades.

Dropped from FY2024

Our broker-priced investments are generally classified as Level 2 investments because the broker prices these investments based on similar assets without applying significant adjustments.

Recast of Certain Prior Period Information

New in FY2025

In August 2024, we announced changes to the composition of our segments.

New in FY2025

These changes align our segments with how we currently manage our business, most notably bringing the commercial components of Microsoft 365 together in the Productivity and Business Processes segment.

New in FY2025

Beginning in fiscal year 2025, the information that our chief operating decision maker is regularly provided and reviews for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance reflects these segment changes.

New in FY2025

Prior period segment information has been recast to conform to the way we internally manage and monitor our business during fiscal year 2025.

New in FY2025

These changes primarily impacted Note 8 – Goodwill, Note 12 – Unearned Revenue, and Note 18 – Segment Information and Geographic Data.

New in FY2025

We have an investment in OpenAI Global, LLC (“OpenAI”) and have made total funding commitments of $13 billion.

New in FY2025

The investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

New in FY2025

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

New in FY2025

We adopted the standard beginning with our annual reporting for fiscal year 2025.

New in FY2025

The adoption resulted in incremental segment reporting disclosures, most notably disclosure of cost of revenue and operating expenses for each reportable segment.

New in FY2025

Refer to Note 18 – Segment Information and Geographic Data.

New in FY2025

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

New in FY2025

*Income Statement – Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*

New in FY2025

In November 2024, the FASB issued a new standard to expand disclosures about income statement expenses.

New in FY2025

The guidance requires disaggregation of certain costs and expenses included in each relevant expense caption on our consolidated income statements in a separate note to the financial statements at each interim and annual reporting period, including amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization.

Dropped from FY2024

In July 2022, we completed an assessment of the useful lives of our server and network equipment.

Dropped from FY2024

Due to investments in software that increased efficiencies in how we operate our server and network equipment, as well as advances in technology, we determined we should increase the estimated useful lives of both server and network equipment from four years to six years.

Dropped from FY2024

This change in accounting estimate was effective beginning fiscal year 2023.

Dropped from FY2024

Activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts was as follows:

Product Warranty

Dropped from FY2024

We provide for the estimated costs of fulfilling our obligations under hardware and software warranties at the time the related revenue is recognized.

Dropped from FY2024

For hardware warranties, we estimate the costs based on historical and projected product failure rates, historical and projected repair costs, and knowledge of specific product failures (if any).

Dropped from FY2024

The specific hardware warranty terms and conditions vary depending upon the product sold and the country in which we do business, but generally include parts and labor over a period generally ranging from 90 days to three years.

Dropped from FY2024

Dropped from FY2024

Inventories

Dropped from FY2024

Inventories are stated at average cost, subject to the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Dropped from FY2024

Cost includes materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead related to the purchase and production of inventories.

Dropped from FY2024

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price less estimated costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.

Dropped from FY2024

We regularly review inventory quantities on hand, future purchase commitments with our suppliers, and the estimated utility of our inventory.

Dropped from FY2024

If our review indicates a reduction in utility below carrying value, we reduce our inventory to a new cost basis through a charge to cost of revenue.

RISKS RELATING TO THE EVOLUTION OF OUR BUSINESS

New in FY2025

We make significant investments in products and services that may not achieve expected returns. We will continue to make significant investments in research, development, and marketing for existing products, services, and technologies, including AI-based products and services.

New in FY2025

We also invest in the development and acquisition of a variety of hardware for productivity, communication, and entertainment, including PCs, tablets, and gaming devices.

New in FY2025

Investments in new technology are speculative.

New in FY2025

Commercial success depends on many factors, including innovation, developer support, and effective distribution and marketing.

New in FY2025

If customers do not perceive our latest offerings as providing significant new functionality or other value, they may reduce their purchases of new software and hardware products or upgrades, unfavorably affecting revenue.

New in FY2025

We may not achieve significant revenue from new product, service, and distribution channel investments for several years, if at all.

New in FY2025

New products and services may not be profitable or may not achieve operating margins as high as we have experienced historically.

New in FY2025

Developing new technologies is complex.

New in FY2025

New in FY2025

We could experience significant delays in new releases or significant problems in creating new products or services.

New in FY2025

These factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Acquisitions, joint ventures, and strategic alliances could have an adverse effect on our business. We expect to continue making acquisitions and entering into joint ventures and strategic alliances as part of our long-term business strategy.

New in FY2025

For example, in October 2023 we completed our acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (“Activision Blizzard”).

New in FY2025

In January 2023 we announced the third phase of our OpenAI strategic partnership.

New in FY2025

Acquisitions and other transactions and arrangements involve significant challenges and risks, including that they do not advance our business strategy, that we get an unsatisfactory return on our investment, that they raise new compliance-related obligations and challenges, that we have difficulty integrating and retaining new employees, business systems, and technology, that they distract management from our other businesses, or that announced transactions may not be completed.
