    Google saw revenues of $18.7 billion and revenue growth of 13% year over year with constant currency revenue growth of 21% year over year.

    The company reported substantial growth in mobile search revenue, which was complemented by contributions from its YouTube and programmatic ad offerings.

    Google also reported:

    – GAAP and non-GAAP operating income of $4.7 billion and $6.1 billion, respectively

    – GAAP and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $5.73 and $7.35, respectively

    – Strong operating cash flow of $6.0 billion

    Ruth Porat, CFO of Alphabet and Google, said, “Our Q3 results show the strength of Google’s business, particularly in mobile search. With six products now having more than 1 billion users globally, we’re excited about the opportunities ahead of Google, and across Alphabet.”
