""For 2020, we model AWS at $44 billion, Azure at $19 billion and Google Cloud Platform at $17 billion (again including significant G-suite contribution)," says Mark May. "We continue to have view that there is enough market to have all reach these goals and by 2020 expect it will more clear whether this is a 'two-horse' race (Amazon/Microsoft) or 'three-horse' (adding Google)." Partially as a result of these projections, Citi forecasts a 12-month price target for Google at $1,350, Amazon at $1,900, and Microsoft at $97." #cloud_computing #beast #money #revenue #pub

App-based dating service Coffee Meets Bagel has raised roughly $7 million in Series B funding, per an SEC filing. The funding values the San Francisco-based startup at about $82 million, according to a PitchBook estimate. " --- So are they worth $89M post-value? "French startup Happn has raised about $66 million from Raine Ventures, DN Capital and more. Hinge, which many accused Facebook of copying to build out its new dating feature, has pulled in roughly $26 million and was most recently valued at an estimated $75.5 million. Clover has about $11 million in VC backing and The League has raised about $3 million." --- "The business of romantic relationships has proven to be a lucrative one.

My saving grace is reddit.com/forhire -- 90% of my freelance clients have come from there, it's a great resource. I just got 2 clients this week, so hopefully they pay and I can knock out their things fast enough to build up my security net a bit. My advice look at the for hire posts for devs, find the one that sticks out the most, copy their layout, replace the content with your details, and post it. Do this once per week -- Monday at 7am eastern seems to be best / most trafficked time according to a reddit stat's site I checked out. #money #$project_freelancing #toread #pub

“Our average monthly cash deficit has been approximately $25.0 million per month from September 30, 2017 to May 31, 2018 inclusive of our processor deposits. From May 1, 2018 through June 15, 2018, we acquired approximately 545,000 new paying subscribers. Due to our greater than anticipated subscriber growth in May 2018, our cash deficit for the month of May 2018 was approximately $40.0 million and we anticipate our cash deficit for the month of June 2018 will be at least $45.0 million due to significant subscriber growth and strong box office results of recently released films.” _How many total subscribers now?_ #moviepass #numbers #stocks #money #revenue #movies #news #pub

"In its first ever release of financial results, the privately held firm said total revenue rose to $421.6 million from $198.3 million in the year-ago quarter as memberships jumped to 268,000 at the end of June from 128,000 a year earlier. Net losses jumped to $723 million over the second half of 2018 from $154 million a year earlier. Occupancy rates at locations increased 6 percentage points from last year’s second quarter to 84 percent. Operating margins, stripping out expenses, rose to 28 percent from 26 percent, the New York-based company said." ... "Minson said that if revenues based on June figures were extrapolated over a full year, WeWork would have a “run-rate” of $1.8 billion and is poised to surpass a pace of $2.3 billion by year’s end. WeWork provides office space in settings where services are shared for individuals to companies with more than 1,000 people, a segment that now accounts for one-quarter of its revenue." ... "WeWork said it has reduced capital expenditures through steps like a 20 percent cut in the cost per desk, or space one member occupies. This shows margins can be improved, it said. Cash and commitments of about $4 billion were available at the end of June. This included $500 million recently raised in China, a $1 billion subordinated convertible debt commitment from major investor SoftBank Group and $600 million in prior commitments from SoftBank." ... "If a company stumbles on such an enormous build-out it would be like tripping while in full sprint, he said. “The fall is likely to hurt.” WeWork has raised $8.1 billion from 12 funding rounds, according to website Crunchbase, more than half from SoftBank, in addition to $702 million in bonds whose sale in April forced the company to divulge its results because the security is public." #coworking #revenue #money #unicorns #pub
