Microsoft is now worth more than $2 trillion.

 Microsoft is now worth more than $2 trillion.


Microsoft was one of the first companies to surpass a $1 trillion valuation, hitting that milestone in April 2019. Shortly before that, Microsoft held the title of Most Valuable Public Company, although today Apple leads the way with $2.8 Trillion.

It took nearly 43 years to reach $1 trillion and reach $2 trillion in the next 2 years despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

Microsoft's annual revenue has increased almost 84 percent under Nadella, from $77.8 billion in the fiscal year 2013 to just over $143 billion in the last fiscal year that ended June 30, 2020.

Microsoft stock has grown quite 600% since Satya Nadella replaced Steve Ballmer as the company’s CEO in 2014. (Recently he was appointed for Chairmen position as well)

Microsoft has spent more than $45 billion acquiring companies on Nadella’s watch, including business social network 
LinkedIn, video game developers Mojang Studios and ZeniMax Media, and

 the code-storage service GitHub. Microsoft has largely left them to operate independently and grow. In April the company said it had agreed to acquire speech-recognition company Nuance Communications for $19.7 billion, inclusive of equity and debt.


Nadella’s deal track record has been more successful than that of his predecessor, whose aQuantive and Nokia acquisitions resulted in write-downs. Mojang’s Minecraft game, by contrast, has become the best-selling game in history, and LinkedIn’s quarterly revenue has nearly tripled.
