Google has long been pretty wary about the financials behind its Android mobile OS and data which has emerged during the last week could give us a hint why : it has been losing cash from Day One.
In the suit between Oracle and Google in which Oracle claims Google, in its Android platform, infringes on copyrights and patents related to Java a judge and jurors are endeavoring to work out what sort of damages might be awarded to Oracle. That case took a turn for the specific yesterday, when Judge William Alsup ( as reported by Reuters ) read out excerpts of Google documents that determined that the platform produced a loss for each quarter of 2010 and "a enormous loss for the whole year".
He also noted that Android generated around $97.7 million in cash in quarter 1 of 2010.
The jury started their deliberations on Monday, and if they can't come to a unanimous call, then the trial will go on to its 2nd phase, concerning patents, with the first phase on copyright subsequently facing a retrial.
What quantity of cash Google has or has not made is a very important part of the case as it can be used to decide how much Oracle can probably receive in damages if it wins the case although Oracle says that even though Android is making a loss, this shouldn't have any bearing on the case.
Ironically, if Google can show it isn't making much money out of Android, then that may mean it has less culpability. From an alternative perspective, that complicated performance might also become a lever by which critics might begin to question why Google is pursuing an enterprise that is going nowhere financially.
Figures from Google documents from 2010 revealed earlier in the trial showed clearly that Google predicted a loss of $113 million in 2010 from Android and that it predicted to have profits of $64 million in 2011 ; $248 million in 2012 ; and $548 in 2013. The vast majority of that revenue will be coming from advertising, with tiny but growing %s also coming from app sales. Tags: Google SUCKS
