Alphabet on Strong Footing, Could Scale to Fresh Record High on Upbeat Q3 Earnings

The parent of Google and the world’s largest search engine that dominates internet search activity globally, Alphabet, is expected to report its third-quarter earnings of $23.84 per share, which represents year-over-year growth of about 45% from $16.4 per share seen in the same period a year ago.

The Mountain View, California-based internet giant would post revenue growth of more than 35% to around $51.4 billion. In the last two years, the company has beaten earnings per share (EPS) estimates most of the time with a surprise of over 25%.

Alphabet’s better-than-expected third-quarter earnings results, which will be announced on Tuesday, October 26 after the close of trading, could help the stock scale to a fresh record high. The company’s shares rose over 57% so far this year. It was trading 2.68% lower at $2,761.66 on Friday.

Analyst Comments

“We remain bullish on Search strength amid an ongoing ad market recovery and following our Digital ad expert check-call on 10/7, which suggested strong Search spend (despite tougher comps) as CPCs continue to drive growth. Our 3Q21 net rev. (+39% y/y), EBITDA, & EPS are all above consensus. We also expect robust Holiday spending, despite inventory issues. Maintain Outperform & $3,300 Price Target,” noted John Blackledge, equity analyst at Cowen.

“We currently forecast 13% and 14% annual gross and net revenue growth respectively’21-’26 and EBITDA growth of ~14% over the time period.”
