Estimates — analyst targets and a simplified DCF, not investment advice.
Ten ratios that matter, each compared against its sector median and average — so you can see whether a number is rich or cheap relative to peers in the same sector.
Alphabet, the parent company of Google, is a global leader in internet search, digital advertising, cloud computing, and the development of artificial intelligence technologies. The company generates its revenue primarily through advertising on the Google search engine and the YouTube platform, in addition to accelerated growth in Google Cloud services, hardware sales, and subscriptions. The company also invests heavily in futuristic projects such as autonomous driving through Waymo and drone delivery through Wing.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, Alphabet reported exceptional financial results, with total revenue reaching $119.8 billion, representing a 24% increase year-over-year. Gross profit reached $73.9 billion, while net income jumped to $112.2 billion, achieving earnings per share of $9.11. The cloud services segment emerged as a key driver of this performance, recording an 82% growth to reach $24.8 billion in revenue, supported by strong demand for infrastructure and artificial intelligence solutions.
Alphabet stock enjoys a strong consensus buy recommendation from analysts, reflecting confidence in the company's AI-driven revenue growth trajectory. The average analyst price target is $423.44, with a high estimate of $475 and a low estimate of $350.

Artificial intelligence investments led to a massive surge in the cloud services segment during the second quarter of 2026. Segment revenue jumped by 82% to reach $24.8 billion, driven by strong demand for solutions like Gemini Enterprise. The segment's operating profit margin also increased significantly from 20.7% to 35.6%, and the backlog exceeded $514 billion.
Alphabet recorded negative free cash flows of $5.9 billion in the second quarter of 2026. This decline is primarily due to massive capital expenditure, which reached $44.9 billion during the same quarter. The vast majority of this spending was directed towards technical infrastructure, with servers accounting for 60% and data centers for 40% to support artificial intelligence capabilities.
Alphabet continues to accelerate the pace of its model launches to counter competition, announcing new models such as Gemini 3.6 Flash and Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber in July 2026. These models are characterized by high efficiency and low cost, making them ideal for enterprises. In addition, the company has begun training its massive Gemini 4 model to ensure it remains at the forefront of the artificial intelligence technology race.
