Boston, MA 01\/27\/2014 (wallstreetpr) –\u00a0The week will be marked by a series of earnings announcements by some of the well-known companies, primarily led by the technology companies. As the eyes are set on the interesting anticipated revelations, some concerns too, cling to these companies, which include, questions of privacy and security of consumer data.<\/p>\n
Eyes on User Growth<\/b><\/p>\n
One among these tech firms is Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB)<\/b>, which has consistently performed in the year 2013 and had beaten the expectations of the Wall Street every time. Over a period of last one year, Facebook has come about revolutionizing from just being a social networking to an effective and efficient mobile advertising platform. With already $1 billion sales reported in the last quarter, it is\u00a0 to be seen whether the much talked about the mobile advertising future of this company will continue to pay off.<\/p>\n
Apart from the mobile ad revenues, the next thing to watch out for in the report is how much expansion Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) has achieved in terms of user growth. While analysts see an improvement in User growth in the U.S., Europe and Asia Pacific zone, but the Princeton Research contradict with its research study that shows a80% user decline by the year 2017. Other main features expected to unfold are its progress on ARPU growth in North America and some early signs of success about Instagram.<\/p>\n
Fourth-Quarter Review<\/b><\/p>\n
As far as the consensus estimate has put up on Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) specifies that the market expects fourth quarter revenues at $2.4 billion,which an increase of nearly 47% year \u2013over-year. The earnings per share expectation is kept at $0.27 per share, which is a 58% improvement over its previous year\u2019s quarter EPS of 17 cents per share. Analysts do not see any concerns as far as the financial numbers and growth are concerned as the company is doing fairly well on this front. But, as said earlier, all eyes are hooked on user and video growth for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
