AOL Misses Earnings Estimates On Revenue And Earnings

The newly kicked out of the nest AOL reported earnings of $584.1 million, though Wall Street had expected about $602 million. And because of a massive ($1.4 billion) impairment charge, the company reported a loss for the quarter of $1.3 billion.

Meanwhile in Q2:

  • Patch’s operations nearly doubled, moving into 39 new towns up from a total of 44 at the beginning of the quarter
  • AOL reduced its expenses by $73.2 million since last quarter
  • Advertising revenue fell across the board, which the company attributed in its earnings statement to lower third party network revenue and fewer deals overseas.
