Net income was reported to be $ 11.6 billion, up 38% year-on-year. The profit per share is $ 1.51 (about 165 yen).
Year-over-year revenue growth was particularly strong in Azure, up 62%, Dynamics 365, up 42%, Office 365, up 27%, Windows commercial products and cloud services, up 25%, and LinkedIn, up 24%. The Windows OEM business also saw strong revenues at 18%, with experts rating Windows 7 support as more than just a tailwind from the end of January 14, 2020 .
Surface is also growing at a modest $ 6 billion (about 220 billion yen). Amy Hood commented that he expects high single digit revenue growth.
On the other hand, overall revenue is likely to be declining for Xbox-related products, despite the boost from third-party titles, but Microsoft's revenue has fallen 11%. However, in 2020, the next-generation hardware 'Xbox (former name: Xbox Series X)' is scheduled to appear, and it may come back in the future.
Clearly that the official name of Microsoft's next-generation game machine will be `` Xbox '' instead of `` Xbox Series X ''-gigazine
