Analysts who were interested in throwing out their long list of questions would have to meet through series of webcasts as the analyst day for the year has been planned to be conducted online rather than a usual and a traditional on-site analyst day.
The search engine giant has officially announced about its decision. It has been announced that it would meet all the analysts and investors online on the analyst day and not in an on-site traditional meet. The first webcasts on ‘search and monetization’ has been scheduled to take place on September 9. The on-site in-person analyst day at Yahoo Inc is scheduled to take place on October 28 of this year.
Google spokeswoman Ms. Jane Penner speaking about the change said, “We felt having a series of webcasts on specific topics would be more dynamic and inclusive than a traditional analyst day, where shareholders must travel long distances and absorb everything in one sitting,”. She also said that there would be a question and answer session in this new way of dealing with investors where the users would be able both submit questions and also vote for the questions that they feel should be asked. This process would be executed using Google Moderator that would users to submit and vote.
The change has raised questions in most of the analysts’ minds. Few of them say that Google Inc has made this change to check and estimate the current quarter’s earnings prior to its release this time as the estimates were too bad for the last quarter and had fallen down badly. Some others feel that Google is making out this plan in order to target top advertisers and to increase the popularity and demand for its products and operating system like software development tools for mobile devices, YouTube, Chrome and Android. One of the analysts from Brigatine Advisors Mr. Colin Gillis has asked, “Growth has ground down to 3 percent in the June quarter. What reignites growth? (Google) just had its fifth anniversary as a public company – how do we get back to 20 percent, 30 percent growth?”
Questions like these that are raised now sound to be reasonable, as this sudden change in plan has changed the plans of many of the analysts who had planned their trip well in advance. If it had been announced earlier, there would not have been so much of chaos and the analysts would not have become so suspicious about the change. However, Google stills says that it has made the change in order to be different from the usual traditional way and in order to make it more comfortable for the analysts to ask more questions on their doubts but by staying at their own locations.
