Operating income up 30%, margin expanded to 36.1%. Pichai noted they are "compute constrained" — Cloud revenue would have been higher with more capacity. Gemini Enterprise paid MAUs grew 40% QoQ. Waymo surpassed 500K rides/week. This far exceeds thesis targets. Stock surged 8.8% to $381, well above cost basis of $338. The DOJ overhang remains but fundamentals are exceptional.
