Section 2 - Financial Information

 

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

On June 29, 2005, Oracle Corporation issued a press release announcing financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter and year ended May 31, 2005. On July 1, 2005, Oracle updated the expected currency effect on total revenues for fiscal 2006, given the recent rise in the U.S. Dollar. As of June 30, 2005, currency is expected to have a negative effect of 2% on total revenues for the full year. The expected currency impact for the first fiscal quarter is unchanged at positive 2%. Oracle is not making any changes to its guidance for the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2006 or for the full fiscal year. A copy of this press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

 

In connection with this update Oracle revised the table entitled “Oracle Corporation, Fiscal 2005 Financial Results, Currency Effect on Revenue Growth” to reflect forecasted currency for both the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and the full year of fiscal 2006. The original table was furnished supplementally with the June 29, 2005 press release announcing financial results for Oracle’s fiscal fourth quarter and year ended May 31, 2005. A copy of this table is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this report.
