(Reuters) - Yahoo Inc reported an 8.4 percent drop in adjusted quarterly revenue, the latest setback for Marissa Mayer's efforts to turn around the company.
Yahoo reported a net profit attributable to the company of $76.3 million, or 8 cents per share, for the third quarter ended Sept. 30, compared with a profit of $6.77 billion, or $6.70 per share, a year earlier.
Last year's profit included proceeds of $6.3 billion, net of tax, from the sale shares in Alibaba Group Holding Ltd .
Revenue, after deducting fees paid to partner websites, fell to $1.0 billion from $1.09 billion a year earlier.
