LIVE: Google earnings! by Jillian D'Onfro on Feb 1, 2016, 3:46 PM Advertisement
 Get ready for Google parent company Alphabet to release its first segmented earnings report! The company will be separating revenue and expenses from its core business and its "Other Bets," like self-driving cars and fiber internet service. That means that investors will finally have an understanding of how much "moonshots" are costing the company and how big margins on Google's search and ads business actually are. We'll be covering the report live once the numbers cross, so refresh or click here for the latest. For now, here's what analysts are expecting: - Q4 adjusted earnings per share (EPS): $8.09, up from $6.88 in Q4 2014
- Q4 Revenue: $20.77 billion, up ~15% from $18.1 billion in the year-ago period
- Cost per click (how much Google can charge for its ads): Down 6.1% year-over year
- Paid clicks (how many times people click those ads): Up 22.4% year-over-year
We'll also be paying close attention to growth in Google's "Other Revenue" category, since that accounts for the Google Play Store and its cloud business, as well as any color about YouTube on the earnings call. SEE ALSO: Meet the bigshots of Google's new parent company
