No insider purchase over the last 90 days. The latest was filed 18 Feb 2026.
This page follows insider dealings at Microsoft Corp as filed with SEC (Form 4), a company from the Technology sector based in Redmond, United States. The group dates from 1975. Its latest reported headcount is 228,000 employees (2024). 16 insiders have disclosed 80 filings since 18 October 2025.
On the market, 2 insiders bought (2 purchases totalling €3.0M) while 5 insiders sold (16 sales totalling €58.5M). Sales outweigh purchases by €55.6M. Unlike grants, an open-market purchase is paid for by the insider, at the market price. The largest single trade was a sale of €13.7M by Smith Bradford l, published on 4 November 2025. The buyers include 1 senior executive and 1 chief executive.
The clock since the last published purchase (18 February 2026) now reads 242 days. Typically, a trade is published a median of 1 day after it takes place. The legal deadline for a Form 4 is two business days after the transaction. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 5,812 companies) published 19 filings over the same period, against 80 filings here. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts 3 purchases against 80 sales. The 10-K for the year ended 30 June 2026 shows 331.84 bn USD of revenue and 133.75 bn USD of net income and a dividend of 3.64 USD per share.

Microsoft Corp. (ticker MSFT) is one of the global leaders in software, cloud computing and artificial intelligence. It is listed on the U.S. market, specifically the NYSE/NASDAQ context referenced in SEC filings and Form 4 insider transactions, and is headquartered in Redmond, Washington, United States. Founded in 1975, Microsoft built its initial leadership in software and personal computing, then expanded over time into operating systems, enterprise software, cloud infrastructure, collaboration tools, digital advertising and gaming. The company now reports its business through three core segments: Productivity and Business Processes, Intelligent Cloud, and More Personal Computing. ([microsoft.com](https://www.microsoft.com/investor/reports/ar25/index.html?msockid=0c434a511a2f64603c955cad1b34654c&utm_source=openai))
Microsoft’s commercial footprint spans enterprises, governments, small and medium-sized businesses, and consumers. Its key products and services include Microsoft 365, Office, Teams, Outlook, Dynamics 365, LinkedIn, Azure, Windows, Xbox and an expanding set of AI-driven offerings, especially Copilot. The company’s appeal for investors lies in its broad product ecosystem, high recurring revenue mix and strong cross-selling capabilities across productivity, cloud and device/software platforms. That diversified model helps Microsoft capture demand across multiple end markets while reinforcing network effects around its ecosystem. ([microsoft.com](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/Investor/segment-information?utm_source=openai))
From a competitive standpoint, Microsoft is a top-tier cloud player through Azure, competing with Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud, while remaining a dominant enterprise software franchise. Its strategic advantage comes from integrating productivity software, cloud infrastructure, data and AI into a single platform stack. Fiscal 2025 reinforced that position: revenue rose 15% year over year, supported by Azure, Microsoft 365 Commercial cloud, and growth in gaming and search/news advertising. Management also noted that scaling AI infrastructure reduced Microsoft Cloud gross margin, underscoring the level of investment required to support future demand and maintain competitive momentum.

Geographically, Microsoft operates on a truly global basis with commercial and technical presence across many regions. Recent reporting highlights continued expansion of cloud and AI capacity, including investments across multiple continents. The latest company communications emphasize AI platform transformation, broader Copilot adoption, and the ongoing buildout of cloud infrastructure as the main near-term catalysts. For French-speaking investors, Microsoft remains a high-quality U.S. large cap with strong recurring cash generation, premium competitive positioning and direct exposure to long-term structural themes in software and AI.
