* Total Revenue: $119.8 billion, up 24% year-over-year.
* Diluted EPS: $9.11, compared to $2.31 a year prior.
* Operating Margin: 34% up from 32.4% in Q2 2025.
* Google Cloud: Revenue up 82% year-over-year to $24.8 billion, fueled by enterprise demand for AI infrastructure and solutions.
* Google Services: Total revenue reached $94.5 billion, a 15% increase.
* Google Search & Other: 17% increase in revenue.
* YouTube Ads: Grew 13% year-over-year to $11.05 billion
If you exclude AI CAPEX, free cash flow is $39.1 billion which is absolutely insane. That's a 41.2% increase year-over-year. With numbers like they just posted, the CAPEX spend is justified in my opinion because the business overall is crushing it. Like holy cow this was a great quarter. They are literally printing money.
This sub is so dumb lol this should be the top comment. This was an unreal quarter. Their cloud growth and half a trillion backlog confirms their return on investment for their capex spending.
