Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) declares a cash dividend of $0.20 per share to investors while reporting a first-quarter earnings beat; the Google parent company topped expectations on the top and bottom lines, posting adjusted earnings of $1.89 per share (against estimates of $1.53) and $67.59 billion (against estimates of $66.07 billion).

And Alphabet's stock is overjoyed, surging as high as 13% in Thursday's after-hours trading session.
