Alphabet, Amazon and Microsoft booked sizable "other income" in their Q2 2024 results after revaluing equity stakes in AI startups such as Anthropic. Alphabet reported $98.0 billion, Amazon $53.4 billion—driven largely by Anthropic—and Microsoft recorded a $3.2 billion gain, partly offset by a write-down on its OpenAI holdings. The gains provided a meaningful boost to earnings per share, highlighting how rising valuations of private AI assets are flowing through to reported profits at listed Big Tech companies.
