#earnings

Wall street is projecting 1 cent earning per share, a huge turnaround from 46 cents loss last year. Hopefully we don’t disappoint and deliver to a already very low expectations. Will this be a reality check? Gut check? Or both?

Loved how on yesterday’s internal earnings call Stank opened up with T missing its cashflow plan so bonuses may be impacted. Seriously? You can’t manage cashflow so make the employees pay? Also loved the comment about using corporate tax reductions for “other purposes”.

Stank - it’s time to go.

Lo

Layoffs in Q3, forced 4-ratings in Q4, more layoffs in Q1. I suppose they need to find that $25 million from somewhere.
I can't wait to read Tim's next tone-deaf family saga. Maybe it will go like this. I was eating caviar in my mansion when my daughter came to me and complained that she broke her nail. I told her to cut it off. Sometimes we need to take difficult decisions, like how I trample upon people's livelihood and careers to put food on the table... for the next 20 generations of the Ryan family. SMH! their greed and selfishness knows no bounds.

Huge volume sold today on lower price, sounds like tomorrow’s earnings call will be Farley making excuses.

Love how AK brags every qtr about the "huge and growing AI and hybrid cloud backlog". Yeah right! ISC forecasts by sales is TOTAL BS!!!!! Just put AI or cloud in the product title and bo-m the backlog goes to $1T. SMH!

stock jumps 10 pts!. every business unit did extremely well. top brass made lot of money on sold stock options past couple months and probually end of yr future bonus. Pretty sure management will still scream war on cost mantra even though the cat is out of the bag that company earnings doing well and projected earnings as well next year.

Stankey tried to put lipstick on a pig but wallstreet isn’t falling for it.

Down another 5% at the open.

When will the dysfunction end?!?!?

what whispers are all y'alls hearing about revenue and profit in Q3 and ytd ? How are the next outflows ? Heard group sales was still very weak with these tiny cr-ppy plans being onboarded. Firm need outside investors big time to raise capital to modernize.

IBM's "whisper number" for Q3 2025, or the consensus estimate, is approximately $16.09 billion in revenue and $2.43 per share in earnings. Some analysts anticipate earnings could be slightly higher, at around $2.45 per share, driven by AI and hybrid cloud demand, though others are watching software growth closely following a miss in the previous quarter. The company is scheduled to report its official Q3 results on October 22, 2025.

Let have some numbers so we can see how many more people need to be laid off this round.

Can Halliburton continue to outperform and deliver pretty impressive results with less personnel and more anxiety in the work place

Since September 15 there have been 15 down days with the earnings announcement on October 22 coming up = bad news that has been leaked to select individuals.

Where is the SEC?????

$29.62 to $25.91

could be because of layoffs this Thursday, could be because the new CEO doesn’t know enough to speak on results yet, who knows

EARNINGS!

I’m confused about what’s next. We have a mediocre-to good quarter financially but in the details there is info about us losing customers with close to 2-3% attrition per quarter. Does that mean our profits were the results of financial engineering or are we just racking up fees on our customers? If we aren’t growing or merging, someone is going to merge with us.

Imagine how bad the Q3 results are. I was pi---d and I'm not happy to be in these cuts and scrambling for work, but I am happy to be out of that toxic mess. Please let us know who were cut what a mess the next town hall or the earnings call is.
Soulless pricks in this leadership team that has buried a 120 year old company. What a bunch of complete losers.

Sooooo, we missed Q3 numbers on both earnings and premiums... then Florida’s profit cap forced a roughly $1B policyholder credit (back in September) soooo this slammed profits, so the stock is now junk. On a lighter note, all competitors have same problems and are junk too.

I just cannot wait to tell my team they are getting 1% merits and minimal bonuses yet the earnings reports shows massive growth for the company. Ranking 25% of my staff below expectations, in a non growth everett location all my promos denied. Lovely to have to explain this to them soon at comp talks. Thanks RV making our job so great! But hey!!! We have Eliza !

That means we're going to pause bi-weekly layoffs for a while, right? No need for it anymore, right? Right?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

if they were good, there would have been posts all over.

i’m guessing 1.6

The stock is up

I think the timing of the October announcement is telling. I think they are trying to insulate the stock price ahead of the Q3 earnings release.

Should we start a bingo card for the corny expected spin from the SLT when the Q3 earnings are posted? Can't wait for the town hall or fireside chat to hear how the reinvention is sailing along.

Seems like they should be getting close to operating at a profit by now? Breaking even after selling off so much is one thing… but is Bose actually operating in the black yet? Does anyone know?

MORE LAYOFFS!

Sadly, Occidental Petroleum's EBIT actually dropped 8.8% in the last year. If earnings continue on that decline then managing that debt will be difficult like delivering hot soup on a unicycle …

Q3 2025 and its gotten worse. Net income down v 71.88% Free cash flow down v 43.48% EPS down v 75.31% and companies like Zacks issues Strong sell after Q3 results...and Teradata goes from Cloud strategies to AI to ??? VantageCloud and AIfactory - what happened to 4 D Clearscape analytics and Vantage cloud lake house that dynamically scales without a data redistribution? Those of you still tethered to a pay check the end is near.

Oxy P/E at the end of 2024 was 19. It was 26 last week before the chemical sale announcement. Average P/E for oil sector is ~14. This is what has held the stock price down - no investor wants to pay an exorbitant price for a stock with minimal yield.
The Oxychem sale immediately lowers earnings, which will make the P/E even worse. The market yesterday reacted exactly as expected.

I wonder what word salad SteveB is going to come out with on the results release - will we have new words to add to our Lingo Bingo, or just the usual ones.

Let’s see.

Does anyone in the company have any insight to the results of the third quarter do you see any layoffs coming?

Q3 was not good, heads will roll. Add in Champion X and the other new purchase. The need more cost savings to keep free cash high.

Will the stock go up? What do you think of the earnings?

It's all scam. Safra opened her mouth fee months back and misguided investors with fake numbers. But in parallel she sold her personal oracle stocks totalled 2.5 Billions. Yes, billions not millions.. It's just 20% of her total holdings..Although Oracle earnings had missed that quarter.
They played same again this quarter again. Earnings results came below expectations but stock went up by 40-50%, Leader of fraud Mafia became world's richest person but with 24hrs his son put a bid to buy media company in all cash approx. 20Billions as he father LE is going fund him. It's all legal fraud and beware of this scam...

Disaster or outperform ?

Any rumors/intel on how upcoming report on medicare stars will fair?
