AOL First-Quarter Profit Increases on Advertising Gains

AOL Inc. (AOL), owner of the Huffington Post and TechCrunch, reported a more than fourfold jump in first- quarter profit as online-advertising revenue increased.
Net income advanced to $21.1 million, or 22 cents a share, from $4.7 million, or 4 cents, a year earlier, the New York- based company said today in a statement. Excluding some items, per-share profit was 31 cents. Analysts had predicted 17 cents, the average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg..

Let's hope some of that increase is down to video ad revenues, and let's hope it feeds through to BLNX's own bottom line. Because God knows BLNX management and shareholders - which of course are not always the same thing - could do with some good news...
