Spin, spin, spin: Yahoo reports today
If Yahoo’s internal finance team has ever been pressured to cook the books / squeeze the green / find money where there is none, today is the day.
Yahoo will report earnings at 5pm EST today. To stave off elimination in this Proxy Survivor game, Yahoo must come up with some big numbers, strong guidance, and a healthy dose of momentum.
Conference calls and earnings reports are all about spin, and today’s will be no different. Expect much more detail about future growth prospects, with special attention given to Yahoo’s arrangement with Google.
