Alibaba’s Q1 report was “interesting”… as revenue grew, but earnings weakened significantly - on the other hand, the company is investing heavily in the future etc., which largely explains the decline in profit.
Cloud services and AI in particular are accelerating the company’s development, while at the same time, express e-commerce is expanding strongly worldwide. International commerce improved its results, and the company is now investing heavily in new technologies to strengthen its competitiveness.
The substantial cash reserves enable continuous investment as well as dividend payments. The company has integrated AI quite strongly and extensively into its commercial operations.
