Today is a day with several financial reports from some of the leading companies in the technology sector, such as Google’s parent company, Alphabet<\/strong>. In this regard, we have learned that during this last quarter<\/strong>, spanning from July to September, the group has achieved noteworthy growth. However, their cloud business didn’t perform as well as expected<\/strong>, although they also experienced a significant increase in this area.<\/p>\n\n\n

To begin with, Google has greatly benefited from the strong performance of digital advertising<\/strong>, a field well-recognized by those in Mountain View, as it has been revitalized after last year’s significant slowdown. So, albeit with a few nuances, the company’s profits have soared<\/strong>. Between July and September, Alphabet achieved revenues of $76.693 billion, which is 11% more than in the same period last year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google is growing in all areas, including the cloud, despite not meeting expectations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the margins improved, and the net profit surged by 41% to $19.689 billion<\/strong>, according to the company’s own accounts published this past Tuesday. In summary, in the year-to-date, revenues have grown by 7% to $221.084 billion, and the profit has increased by 14.6%, reaching $53.108 billion<\/strong>, despite the costs of severance packages, such as those carried out earlier in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continuing with the reported data from this last quarter, the company is growing in all possible areas, such as digital advertising, which increased its revenue by 9.5%, reaching $59.647 billion. It appears that both searches and YouTube ads had a strong pull during the three months<\/strong> corresponding to this report. However, Alphabet’s cloud business is the discordant note, even though it has also seen a notable growth of 22.5%, reaching $8.411 billion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we mentioned, although the results have been positive, it seems that the expectations were different for analysts in the sector. StreetAccount projected that Google Cloud would reach a figure of $8.640 billion during this last quarter<\/strong>. We will see what figures Google achieves in the next three months within this growing sector. On the other hand, Other Bets, Alphabet’s non-advertising business portfolio like Waymo, had about $297 million in revenue<\/strong>, a good growth considering it earned $208 million the previous year<\/strong>. In this latter field, the group continued to lose money, specifically talking about a loss of $1.190 billion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, it is expected that AI involvement will be much greater in the near future<\/strong> since the company aims to integrate it into more services following the success of OpenAI’s ChatGPT<\/a>. In fact, artificial intelligence could significantly impact Google’s dominance in search and advertising<\/strong> if it reforms how users search for information on the internet, at least according to analysts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I am pleased with our financial results and the momentum of our products this quarter, with AI-driven innovations across Search, YouTube, Cloud, our Pixel devices, and much more<\/strong>. We continue to focus on making AI more helpful for everyone; there is exciting progress and much more to come<\/strong>,” said Sundar Pichai, CEO, in a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

To conclude, it is worth mentioning that Alphabet’s stocks have appreciated by 56% so far this year<\/strong> due to expectations of business improvement. Currently, they have a market capitalization of over 1.7 trillion dollars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
