Microsoft and Equity Group Report Profit Growth; Boeing Faces $5bn Penalty for Delays - October 2025
Microsoft reported strong financial results for its first fiscal quarter of 2026, with significant increases in revenue and net income that exceeded expectations. The growth was largely driven by its cloud and AI initiatives, as highlighted by CEO Satya Nadella. Similarly, Equity Group's net profit rose 32 percent to Sh54.1 billion in the third quarter. In contrast, Boeing is set to face a $5 billion financial blow in penalties due to production delays of its new 777X aircraft. The anticipated delivery for the jet has been pushed back to 2027 because of regulatory hurdles.
