Earnings met the mid-point of management’s guided range of 50 cents to 52 cents per share. Including stock-based compensation expense and amortization of capitalized stock-based compensation, earnings were 42 cents per share, much better than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 34 cents. The positive surprise was primarily driven by strong revenue growth and margin expansion in the quarter. Revenues Revenues jumped 15.2% year over year but declined 2.6% quarter over quarter to $368.0 million, slightly ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate.

		<description><![CDATA[Search giant/household name Google (GOOG) reported Q1 earnings after the bell Thursday, with somewhat lighter results than expected. While the headline numbers of $14 billion and earnings of nearly $11.60 per share, it&#8217;s important to account for a few things: Traffic Acquisition Costs (TAC). These were not deducted from Google&#8217;s gaudily impressive revenue number of $13.97 billion, but let&#8217;s subtract its nearly $3 billion ($2.96B) ourselves: this leaves Google with quarterly revenues of $11.01 billion, beneath the $11.24 billion we at Zacks had been expecting. So Google has missed on the top-line. Stripping out costs including a restructuring, but adding a gain from disc operations, the Zacks EPS actual for Google is $10.00 even. This easily beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $8.83, which was a number that had crept ]]></description>

(YHOO) reported Q1 fully-diluted earnings per share of 34 cents (accounting for a restructuring reversal; the headline number was 38 cents per share) on $1.07 billion in revenues. This was a little light in sales, as the Zacks Consensus was for $1.1 billion, but Yahoo appears to have hit a homer on EPS. &#8230;Yet the stock is down big in after-hours trading. So what gives? A couple of the touchstones for Yahoo in its Q1 earnings report was guidance (which was a little less than expected) and whether search query numbers were still down (they were, by -11%). Also, Yahoo posted the worst year-over-year decline in display ads in more than two years. So it would seem it pays to not judge a book ]]></description>

Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement. Growth Factors This Past Quarter Though Expedia’s revenue in the fourth quarter was down sequentially, a stronger travel market all over the world, contribution from VIA and strategic expansion in Asia helped revenue exceed our expectations. We believe that Expedia will continue to benefit from the acquisition of VIA Travel that closed in the second quarter of 2012. Bookings were down sequentially in the last quarter due to weakness across channels and geographies, but there could be improvements based on recent acquisitions and agreements that are likely to expand its addressable market. Weaker volumes also impacted margins in ]]></description>

This move comes after both the companies unanimously made several changes to their business agreement through a regulatory filing late last year. According to the revised terms of the agreement, gamers would no longer be compelled to use the Facebook Payment system to buy Zynga’s in-game items. Facebook got 30% share on all in-game items sold. This surely bodes well for Zynga as it no longer needs to pay the 30% share. However, Zynga would lose its preferential status on Facebook. It would have to abide by Facebook’s general terms and conditions that are applicable for all other game developers and contributors. Moreover, Zynga can concentrate more ]]></description>

The new service will allow retailers and manufacturers to reward shoppers with relevant coupons, expand reward programs and track redemption of the coupons. Customers can save the Zavers discounts, which they find on retailer websites, to their accounts. Coupons will be redeemed and savings deducted automatically as soon as they check out. In September 2011, Google acquired Zave Networks, which specializes in digitizing coupons and loyalty rewards programs. Zavers is Google’s first product based on this acquisition. Some of Zavers’ partners include A&#38;P, The Food Emporium, Price Chopper, Superfresh and Pathmark. This service ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google Inc. (GOOG), the world&#8217;s most popular Internet search engine provider, has announced that it will build a data center in Iowa. The search engine giant will invest $200 million for the construction of this project in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Google has been present in Iowa since 2007 and has invested more than $1.0 billion in the state. The company has accelerated its investments and is now investing in data centers.  Previously, it had invested $75.0 million in a 50MW wind farm project. Investments in rural areas like Iowa and Nevada make sense as these states offer state tax incentives, government incentives, low-cost power, cheap land and good predictable weather. All these factors attract the IT stalwarts to invest at a cheaper cost. Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) too has a data ]]></description>

(GOOG), the world&#8217;s most popular Internet search engine provider, recently announced a licensing deal with several European music publishers, thus expanding the archive on Google Music. The Internet search giant collaborated with Armonia, a major European music publishing group which includes French, Italian and Spanish licensing groups. The deal will provide Google users access to 5.5 million tracks on Google Music across 35 countries, including tracks by leading artists like Lady Gaga and Rihanna. This should help Google to expand its music content offerings in Europe. The deal will allow users to integrate their favorite albums and music with their Google Music library, which can store up to 20,000 songs. We believe that one of the key strategies for Google Music remains the expansion of its songs archive. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google Inc (GOOG) reported earnings of $7.35, missing our estimates by $1.53, or 17.2%. Google’s superior algorithms have consistently attracted more users and generated better conversions.  However, the cost per click is on the rise, which is impacting both revenue and margins. The significantly lower-margin Motorola business is making matters worse. Revenue Google’s gross revenue touched a record $14.10 billion, representing sequential and year-over-year increases of 28.6% and 45.1%, respectively. Google is very strongly positioned in the mobile segment, where both smartphones and tablets have been making strong headway. The dominant position has enabled Google to generate very strong mobile revenue growth. In fact, the company’s position in mobile looks better than it was in traditional computing, which says something about its strategic planning and execution.

In his book One Up On Wall Street, he devotes the introduction and the second chapter to highlighting the advantages an individual investor has over professional investors. Two constraints really handicap the pros, and you can take advantage of them: Group Thinking and Timing Constraints. Professional investors have people looking over their shoulders on a daily basis. If the risk manager, director of research, peers, or key investors don’t understand a position, they have to take time to defend their choices. This takes a lot of time and energy from someone who would rather be on the golf course. Rather than finding a small, but growing company that’s creating a new market, why not just ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google Inc. (GOOG) has for long been building a technology for self-driven cars and its lobbying to get the cars approved made some headway. Californian Governor Jerry Brown has now signed a bill at the Google headquarters for driverless cars in California. The bill was signed to conduct safety and performance regulations to test the autonomous vehicles. To date Google has tested a dozen of these vehicles that are controlled by computers and the cars have apparently been driven 300,000 miles without any accident. The cars have been fitted with radar, GPS and computer vision techniques that auto-sense the surroundings. Therefore, the advanced control system can navigate the car on its own once the destination has been chosen. Google claims that these cars can improve road safety, and reduce traffic ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google Inc.(GOOG) is upping the ante on its online shopping services. For some time now, the Internet search giant has been building its online shopping capabilities. If Google is successful, it could give Internet retailers like Amazon (AMZN) and eBay (EBAY) a hard time. Google Shopping, as the service is now called, is frequented by customers searching online for products. Products searched on Google automatically have the Google Shopping link at the top, with Amazon and others following. However, retailers and online marketplaces have so far featured quite prominently on Google Shopping as well and this is the service that Google intends to charge for. Amazon has been making billions from the sales that Google directs to its properties and earlier this year, Google announced its decision to cash in ]]></description>

The online information service provider announced the availability of Yelp in Singapore, where residents can create accounts on Yelp.com.sg to post their views about local businesses and services. Yelp’s free application for Google’s (GOOG) Android and Apple’s (AAPL) iOS devices is available. The company announced that free Yelp for business owners will also be available to the thriving business community of Singapore. Currently, Yelp Singapore is available only in some European languages (namely English, French, German, Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish and Italian). We believe that to achieve significant popularity in Singapore and fight competition from local providers, Yelp needs to add Asian languages, particularly Chinese, Malay and Tamil, which are the country’s official languages. Nevertheless, we believe that the expansion may ]]></description>

Although the company is capable of processing the transactions of any credit card, it is currently focusing only on businesses that offer deals through Groupon. It is also allowing other businesses to use the payment service under a test program, but is charging premium rates for it. The target clientele is small businesses that do not accept credit cards to either avoid paying high transaction fees or due to lack of access to the required technology.

		<description><![CDATA[According to an order from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, Akamai Technologies Inc.’s (AKAM) patent litigation case against Limelight Networks Inc. (LLNW) related to content delivery is to be reconsidered, reported Bloomberg. Akamai had accused Limelight of having infringed on a certain content delivery patent way back in 2008. The Jury ruled in favor of Akamai and awarded it $45 million. However, the ruling was overturned by a District Court next year saying that Limelight did not completely infringe on Akamai’s patents. However, with the revival of this case, Akamai would now have another chance to protect its patents related to content delivery against its competitors. Akamai is a leading provider of content delivery network services, accounting for approximately 30.0% of all Internet traffic through its ]]></description>

With 1,000 of the 4,000 job cuts to take place in China itself, employees are up in arms to prevent the action. To recap &#8211; Google entered into a definitive agreement with Motorola Mobility Holdings on August 15, 2011. The company picked up a 100% stake for $40.0 per share in cash, or a total consideration of approximately $12.5 billion. The deal, which closed in May 2012, was intended to beef up its portfolio of mobile patents. However, given that Motorola has many problems, Google recently announced major restructuring actions. In China, R&#38;D personnel will be halved and Motorola offices in Nanjing and Shanghai will be closed. The fact that the uproar is more on humanitarian ]]></description>

We witness a single upward movement in analyst estimates in the build-up to the release. Prior-Quarter Synopsis Yahoo’s first-quarter non-GAAP earnings were up 22.3% sequentially, better than what most investors were expecting. The primary reasons for the earnings growth were a lower tax rate and lower share count. GAAP revenue for the quarter was down 7.8% sequentially and up 0.6% year over year at $1.22 billion. The sequential decline was due to lower-than-expected display revenue in the quarter. The gross margin was down 278 basis points (bps) sequentially and 151 bps year over year at 67.4%. The operating margin also shrunk in the quarter due to significantly higher S&#38;M expenses. Second Quarter Guidance Yahoo expects ]]></description>
