Folks, This week brings a trio of earnings reports that investors should be paying close attention to. Oracle, UiPath, and Serve Robotics are all set to report within a 24-hour window — and each one tells a very different story about where the market is headed next.
The timing matters. Tech stocks have been under relentless pressure in 2026, and the software sector has been hit particularly hard. Oracle has posted five consecutive monthly declines. UiPath is down roughly 20% since its last earnings print. Serve Robotics has cratered about 60% from its highs.
Whether these reports mark a turning point or add fuel to the selloff is the question every investor watching this space needs to be asking. | | | Oracle (ORCL)
Oracle reports fiscal Q3 2026 results on Tuesday after the bell. Last quarter delivered mixed results — revenue of $16.1 billion missed estimates by a hair, triggering a ~10% selloff, but adjusted EPS of $2.26 crushed the $1.50 consensus by over 50%. Remaining Performance Obligations exploded around 438% to $523 billion on massive contracts with Meta and Nvidia.
- Revenue and EPS — Analysts expect roughly $16.9 billion in revenue and approximately $1.70 per share in earnings. Oracle's own guidance calls for 19%–21% total revenue growth and $1.70–$1.74 in non-GAAP EPS.
- OCI growth is the key number — Some analysts expect Oracle Cloud Infrastructure growth to accelerate to roughly 80% year over year, up from 66% last quarter. Cloud revenue is guided to grow 40%–44% in USD. If OCI delivers that acceleration, it could shift the narrative around Oracle's AI positioning entirely.
- CapEx concerns — Oracle now sees about $50 billion in full-year capital expenditures. How management addresses funding and its commitment to maintaining an investment-grade debt rating will be closely scrutinized.
UiPath (PATH)
UiPath reports fiscal Q4 and full-year 2026 results on Wednesday after the bell. After years of turbulence and leadership changes, UiPath delivered something unexpected last quarter — its first ever GAAP profitable third quarter. Revenue hit $411 million, up 16%, and ARR climbed to $1.782 billion, up 11%. The stock surged over 29% on the results. The question is whether the momentum holds.
- Revenue and EPS — Analysts expect Q4 revenue of approximately $465 million and EPS of $0.25. Management guided revenue of $462–$467 million and non-GAAP operating income of around $140 million. ARR is guided to land between $1.844 and $1.849 billion.
- The agentic automation narrative — UiPath has aggressively positioned itself as a leader in agentic automation, combining deterministic automation with AI agents on a single platform. Whether new deal activity reflects enterprise adoption of this strategy is what investors will be listening for.
| | | Serve Robotics (SERV)
Serve Robotics reports Q4 2025 results on Wednesday morning. This is not being judged on profitability — it is being judged on whether its physical AI thesis is translating into scale.
In December, Serve announced it had deployed 2,000 autonomous delivery robots, making it the largest sidewalk delivery fleet in the United States. In January, the company closed a $29 million acquisition of Diligent Robotics, whose Moxi robots operate in over 25 hospitals and have completed more than 1.25 million tasks.
- Revenue is tiny but growing fast — Q3 revenue was $687,000, up 210% year over year. Management has guided for roughly $2.5 million in total 2025 revenue and projected a 10x revenue inflection in 2026. Investors will be watching for updated guidance.
- Fleet scale and partnerships — Serve delivers for over 3,600 restaurants, with partnerships with Uber Eats and DoorDash covering over 80% of the U.S. food delivery market. Delivery reliability has approached 100%.
- The Diligent acquisition — Each hospital deployment of Moxi is expected to generate $200,000–$400,000 in annual revenue. The deal brings mobile manipulation and indoor navigation data into Serve's autonomy stack, potentially accelerating AI model development across all platforms.
- Cash and valuation — Serve ended Q3 with $211 million in cash. The company is valued at roughly $744 million, or about 30 times management's rough 2026 revenue estimate. Commentary on burn rate and integration costs will be key.
The Bottom Line
Three different companies, three different stories, but one common thread — each report lands at a moment where sentiment toward AI and tech is deeply negative, and each has a chance to prove the fundamentals do not match the fear.
The market has already priced in a lot of pessimism. What happens this week will either confirm it or start to unwind it.
Anyways...
That's all for now!
