Alibaba (BABA: NYE)<\/a><\/strong> investors are gearing up for the company’s Q4 earnings release scheduled for tomorrow, May 14th. Let’s delve into what analysts’ predictions hold for Alibaba’s stock price.<\/span><\/p>\n

Expected Q4 Earnings of Alibaba:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Analysts anticipate Alibaba to report revenue of $30.48 billion in Q4, which is a modest increase compared to the $30.32 billion reported in the same quarter last year. While Alibaba’s focus on competitive pricing might boost sales volume, intense competition in the e-commerce sector and the company’s decision to scale back on certain low-margin cloud contracts are likely to dampen revenue growth in the near future.<\/span><\/p>\n

Analysts also predict that the company’s profit will be negatively impacted by its pricing strategies. Wall Street expects Alibaba to report earnings per share (EPS) of $1.42 in Q4, representing a roughly 4% decline from the EPS of $1.48 reported in the previous year’s corresponding quarter.<\/span><\/p>\n
