Alphabet Prepares Q2 Earnings Report Amid AI Investment and Gemini Delay
Alphabet is set to report its second-quarter FY2026 earnings amid investor focus on its artificial intelligence (AI) investments and financial performance. Analysts expect revenue growth driven by Google Search and Cloud, while AI spending on infrastructure and custom chips remains significant. However, the launch of the Gemini 3.5 Pro AI model has been delayed, raising concerns about competition and the return on heavy data-center investments. The company’s increased capital expenditure and recent equity offerings add to investor scrutiny ahead of the results.
