Alphabet has announced the earnings call of Google for Q2 2023 and the results are better than the company had predicted.
Q2 of 2023 saw a much better ad revenue figure than what the company forecasted when compared to the previous years. As a whole, a 2% rise in Google’s search revenue was seen and this came with a smaller but much-appreciated increase on the advertising front thanks to YouTube ads.
However, the figure for Google’s ad network saw a 5% decline. This led the company to roll out a press release on the matter where it confirmed how the financial results continued to display a lot of resilience in the Search domain. Furthermore, it was accompanied by an increase in revenue growth for the YouTube app and for Google Search.
While we agree that the results were not bad, exceeding the tech giant’s own predictions, the growth in single digits is a clear explanation of how spending for digital advertising is yet to come back on track and recover to normal.
However, the predictions made by tech experts are that by Q4 of this year, we should see that take place.
Now the question is what is the take-home message from Google’s earnings report? Well, it appears to hint toward the fact that people are finally putting more trust in such types of ads because, post the economic downturn period, that was rare to be found.
It’s wonderful tidings for those in the digital ads industry as that means advertising spending would rise further, especially as Q4 falls in the festive season.
The company also shed light on how it hopes to invest further in AI as advertising revenue grew by $1.8 billion when compared to stats from 2022. Meanwhile, YouTube’s advertising revenue increased also to reach the $7.6 billion mark.
The tech giant’s CBO says that the company would be working hard now to carry out investments in the AI sector as the organization reaches its seventh year as a company that takes pride in its AI initiatives.
The firm has been working hard to include the trending generative AI in many of its new and old products. And that is one way they hope to assist advertisers in making some great decisions that would be to their benefit as well as the benefit of the Android maker.
AI can increase creativity, and find better solutions, Google added.
With the earnings call came more reports about how the company would be experiencing some more changes including the current CFO resigning, who has been a part of the company for a whopping eight years. But she is not going anywhere as she looks forward to taking on the new and challenging role of being the President as well as the CIO which is the Chief Investment Officer. Both of these positions are newly introduced at the company, it adds.
