Shares of Qualys Inc QLYS were down about 6.5 percent in Monday’s after-hours session. The company posted EPS of $ 0.21, $0.04 above the Street’s consensus, on revenue of $ 44.45 million, in line with expectations. It seems what was driving the stock down was weak guidance provided by management.
Qualys anticipates first quarter adjusted earnings of $0.14 to $0.16 per share on revenue in the $44.7 million to $45.4 million range. The Street is currently modeling earnings of $0.17 per share on sales of $45.92 million.
Waste Connections, Inc. WCN was also down slightly on its earnings call. The mid-cap integrated municipal solid waste services company delivered earnings of $0.49 per share on revenue of $531.94 million, beating the Street’s consensus of $0.47 per share and $522.52 million. Management announced a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.145 per share, payable March 15 to stockholders of record on the close of business on March 1.
DISH Network Corp DISH was up 4 percent after the bell rang on what seems to be no particular news. The surge may be a correction of the 7.22 percent decline that the stock experienced over the day.
Two more stocks that were trading up more than 4 percent on Monday afternoon were NRG Energy Inc NRG and Melco Crown Entertainment Ltd (ADR) MPEL, both recuperating the ground lost during the regular session.
