What: Shares of Cymer
So what: Or maybe investors were just confused by Cymer's second-quarter earnings report. Last night, the chip making equipment supplier said revenue improved 20% to $158.2 million, resulting in $0.89 a share in profit. Analysts had been calling for $157.47 million and $0.71 a share, respectively.
Now what: Alas, a good beat wasn't good enough. Cymer expects just $130 million in third-quarter revenue, well below the $157.9 million Wall Street was hoping for. Does it matter? You tell me. Weigh in on Cymer's business, strategy, and valuation using the comments box below.
