Oracle has denied that it is suffering delays in completing the data centers it is providing to OpenAI.

Oracle spokesperson Michael Egbert has since told Reuters: "There have been no delays to any sites required to meet our contractual commitments, and all milestones remain on track. We remain fully aligned with OpenAI and confident in our ability to execute against both our contractual commitments and future expansion plans."

In an SEC filing, the cloud company noted: "As of November 30, 2025, we had $248 billion of additional lease commitments, substantially all related to data centers and cloud capacity arrangements, that are generally expected to commence between the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2028 and for terms of fifteen to nineteen years that were not reflected on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of November 30, 2025."
