  • Although EPS met the company's issued guidance, ValueClick managed to miss its revenue and adjusted-EBITDA guidance for the quarter. And continuing on this track, the company reduced its fiscal-year guidance.
  • Point fingers at the company's promotion-based business, which produced "disappointing" results.
