Oracle Corp’s Acquisition of Cerner Corp Boosts Revenues to $50.1 Billion

In December 2021, Oracle Corp (ORCL) entered into an agreement to acquire Cerner Corporation, a provider of digital information systems used within hospitals and health systems. The acquisition, which was completed on June 8, 2022, contributed $5.9 billion to Oracle’s total revenues for the fiscal year 2023, raising the company’s total revenues to $50.1 billion.

The Cerner acquisition aimed to enhance Oracle’s product and service offerings in the healthcare sector.

Cerner is a leading provider of digital information systems designed to enable medical professionals to deliver better healthcare to individual patients and communities. By incorporating Cerner’s innovative healthcare solutions, Oracle seeks to strengthen its position in the healthtech market.

Oracle’s total purchase price for Cerner was $28.2 billion, including $28.2 billion in cash and $55 million for the fair values of restricted stock-based awards and stock options assumed. Following the acquisition, Cerner became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Oracle.

The acquisition of Cerner resulted in a significant increase in Oracle’s goodwill, which amounted to $18.6 billion, alongside an array of other assets, including $1.5 billion in property, plant, and equipment, and $1.9 billion in cash, and cash equivalents.

Oracle’s unaudited pro forma financial information for fiscal 2023 and 2022 combined the historical results of Oracle and Cerner and factored in business combination accounting effects as though Cerner was acquired at the beginning of fiscal 2022. The unaudited pro forma financial information showed a rise in total revenues from $48.2 billion for fiscal 2022 to $50.1 billion for fiscal 2023.

Furthermore, the pro forma financial information revealed an increase in Oracle’s net income from $4.9 billion in 2022 to $8.5 billion in 2023. Diluted earnings per share also increased from $1.79 in 2022 to $3.06 in 2023.

The successful acquisition and integration of Cerner Corporation into Oracle’s operations underline the company’s commitment to expanding its products and services, particularly in the health tech sector.

With a bolstered market position in this domain, Oracle is well-prepared to capitalize on the growing demand for digital healthcare solutions and drive sustained growth in the coming years.
