Key segment change – Microsoft 365 Commercial We have brought revenue from the commercial components of Microsoft 365 together in the Productivity and Business Processes (“PBP”) segment to align to how the business is managed. “Microsoft 365 Commercial products and cloud services” will now be reported in SEC filings and our KPIs have been adjusted as well. Microsoft 365 Commercial products and cloud services now includes: Office Commercial products and cloud services revenue, already in the PBP segment Enterprise Mobility + Security (“EMS”) and Power BI per-user revenue, previously reported in Azure within the Intelligent Cloud (“IC”) segment Windows Commercial products and cloud services revenue, previously reported in Windows within the More Personal Computing (“MPC”) segment The cloud portion of Microsoft 365 Commercial will be reported as "Microsoft 365 Commercial cloud" and the on-premises portion will be reported as "Microsoft 365 Commercial products" Other segment changes Copilot Pro revenue has moved from Office Consumer products and cloud services in our PBP segment to Search and news advertising in our MPC segment to align to how the business is managed. We then renamed “Office Consumer products and cloud services” to “Microsoft 365 Consumer products and cloud services” given the current branding of the product. Nuance Enterprise revenue has moved from Server products and cloud services in the IC segment to Dynamics products and cloud services in the PBP segment. Nuance Healthcare revenue remains in Server products and cloud services. These changes better align to how the businesses are managed. Windows revenue (now excluding Windows Commercial revenue as noted above) and Devices revenue will now be reported together in SEC filings to bring revenue from PC market-driven businesses together Revenue moved from Search and news advertising in the MPC segment to Azure in the IC segment, and therefore will be included in Microsoft Cloud metrics, to better align with similar commercial services Updates for FY25 – Segment changes

What changes and why? As a result of the Microsoft 365 Commercial segment change, “Microsoft 365 Commercial cloud revenue growth” metric created in the PBP segment to align to how the business is managed. The metric is comprised of: Office 365 Commercial revenue EMS revenue and Power BI per-user revenue, previously in the Azure metric within the IC segment Cloud portion of Windows Commercial revenue, previously in the Windows Commercial metric within the MPC segment With EMS revenue and Power BI per-user revenue moved into Microsoft 365 Commercial cloud metric, Azure metric now more closely aligns to consumption business “Office 365 Commercial seat growth” renamed to “Microsoft 365 Commercial seat growth” to align with product branding What does not change? Definition and calculation previously used for Office 365 Commercial seat growth remains unchanged for Microsoft 365 Commercial seat growth Microsoft 365 Commercial cloud metric

What changes and why? Copilot Pro subscribers removed from Microsoft 365 Consumer subscribers metric to align with the corresponding Copilot Pro revenue movement out of Microsoft 365 Consumer Windows OEM revenue growth and Devices revenue growth metrics replaced by “Windows OEM and Devices revenue growth” metric to align to how the PC market-driven businesses are managed We elevated our cloud revenue growth metrics for Microsoft 365 Commercial, Microsoft 365 Consumer, Dynamics 365, and Azure to be KPIs, which have replaced the former “products and cloud services” KPIs. This elevation aligns to our strategic focus on cloud growth.
