Why 8x8, Inc. Shares Fell 12.7% in July
Shares of cloud-based communications expert 8x8 (NASDAQ: EGHT) fell 12.7% in July 2017, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence.
The main culprit behind 8x8's rough July came at the very end of the month, in the form of a mixed earnings report. The first quarter of fiscal year 2018 saw 8x8's earnings fall by 66% year over year to $0.02 per share while sales increased 15% to land at $69.1 million. Analysts were looking for earnings of $0.03 per share but would have settled for $68.6 million in top-line revenues. Planning ahead, management reiterated 8x8's full-year revenue guidance of approximately $298 million but lowered its pre-tax profit targets from $24 million to $9 million.
The following day, share prices fell as much as 30% on the news before climbing back to a less drastic 12% drop. All told, 9x9 shares have now lost 7% of their value over the last 52 weeks.
