On February 5, 2026, OpenText reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 results for the period ended December 31, 2025, with total revenue essentially flat at $1.33 billion, down 0.6% year-on-year, but cloud revenue rising 3.4% to $478 million, marking 20 consecutive quarters of organic cloud growth.

Spark’s Take on TSE:OTEX Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:OTEX is a Outperform.

Score is driven primarily by solid financial performance (strong margins and cash-flow growth) and supportive valuation (low P/E with a high dividend yield). This is tempered by clear technical weakness (price below major moving averages and negative MACD), while the latest earnings call was moderately positive on cloud momentum and margin expansion despite mix-transition and cybersecurity-cloud risks.
