Ruth Porat, CFO of both Alphabet and Google, said the "results show the strength of Google's business, particularly in mobile search." (Video via Vanity Fair)
That's not too surprising considering one exec revealed at Re/code's Code/Mobile conference earlier this month that the majority of the 100 billion searches Google's engines see every month are done on mobile.

During the company's earnings call, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said, "Search, Android, Maps, Chrome and YouTube each have over a billion users. And Google Play crossed that milestone as well."
That's six different products, each with its own hearty community. (Video via Google)
After this earnings report, recent offerings like Accelerated Mobile Pages make a lot more sense. Because if mobile is this profitable now, why not keep the ball rolling? And keep keeping customers happy.
