Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) Q1 2025 Earnings Preview: AI Innovations Amid Regulatory Scrutiny

TradingKey - Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) is scheduled to post Q1 2025 results on April 24, 2025, after market close. Analysts see revenue of $89.22 billion, up 11% from the year ago period, and EPS of $2.01 versus $1.89 for the comparable period a year ago.

The revenue growth for the firm is derived from its principal advertising business, with Google Ad revenue estimating at about $66.34 billion. Google Cloud is expected to generate about $12.3 billion with a growth range of a 27.2% - 30% year-over-year growth rate.

Innovative applications of artificial intelligence, particularly the integration of Google's Gemini large language model into Search as well as on YouTube, will probably be one of the highlights during the earnings call.

Alphabet is under regulatory spotlight following a U.S. District Court decision which held that it had unlawful monopolies over online advertising.

Experts believe it may lead to a spin-off of its ad network, yet the underlying business will remain robust.

They will pay particularly close attention to Alphabet's comments about regulatory trends, artificial intelligence innovation, and how these will inform its long-term growth strategy.
