Oracle Corporation Form 8-K Summary
Business Context and Reporting Period
This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by Oracle Corporation on April 30, 2007. The report details a specific financial event regarding the company's debt obligations rather than providing comprehensive periodic financial results.
Key Financial Metrics
The filing focuses on a specific debt instrument: Floating Rate Notes due 2009. As of April 30, 2007, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of these Notes was $1.5 billion. The filing does not provide data on revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, or overall liquidity positions.
Material Changes
On April 30, 2007, Oracle delivered an irrevocable notice to Citibank, N.A., as Trustee, to redeem all outstanding Floating Rate Notes due 2009. This action accelerates the repayment of the $1.5 billion principal obligation.
Outlook and Management Commentary
The redemption is scheduled for May 30, 2007. The redemption price will be the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. Following the redemption date, interest on the Notes will cease to accrue, and all rights of the holders will terminate except for the right to receive the redemption price and accrued interest. The filing references the Indenture dated January 13, 2006, for further terms.
