# Oracle's VA Contract Just Got $17 Billion Bigger

Oracle Corp. (ORCL, Financials) has just received a significantly larger opportunity with the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA boosted the maximum on Oracle Healths electronic health record contract by roughly $17 billion to approximately $27 billion.

Thats a big figure, but with an essential caveat. Oracle wont see $17 billion right away. The boost just provides the VA with greater flexibility for awarding contracts as the rollout proceeds. And there is much to do.

Only 14 of the VAs 164 medical centers are live on the federal EHR system, and most are not yet using it. The deal now also includes three more one-year options that may keep the program running through May 2031.

A longer runway might be significant for Oracle's software division, Mizuho says. The brokerage reiterated its Outperform rating and $320 price target, saying the larger VA opportunity might help boost SaaS growth over the next several years.

Oracle has spent most of the last few years trying to sell investors on its cloud infrastructure story. That gives the corporation another lever for growth, one supported by a significant government customer. The next thing to watch will be simple: How fast that excess contract capacity transforms into actual task orders and revenue.
