AskJeeves and PeopleSoft gave jittery investors another reason to sell tech stocks on Wednesday.
AskJeeves beat earnings and revenue estimates with 24-cent earnings and $60.3 million revenues, but the stock tumbled 10% after the company's third-quarter guidance came in below Wall Street estimates. AskJeeves said it expects to earn 24 cents in the third quarter on revenues of $74 million, but analysts were looking for 27-cent earnings and $76.8 million sales.
PeopleSoft missed estimates by a penny with 14-cent earnings, and revenues of $647.3 million came in under $668.8 million forecasts. License revenues of $130.1 million were also a little shy of expectations. The company blamed the miss on fallout from Oracle's takeover attempt and court battle, but analysts believe the company has also been hit by a general slowdown in enterprise software sales.
