July 24 (Reuters) - F5 (FFIV.O) beat third-quarter revenue and profit estimates on Monday, benefiting from higher customer spending on its cloud-related technology, sending its shares up nearly 9% after the bell. After a cut back in expenses related to software and hardware for several quarters, analysts say companies are now slowly increasing their spending in certain areas. F5's revenue and profit forecasts for the fourth quarter were largely in line with estimates. It expects revenue in the range $690 million to $710 million. Per share earnings are seen in the range $3.15 to $3.27, compared to the estimate of $3.22.

April 19 (Reuters) - Cloud and security services firm F5 Inc (FFIV.O) said on Wednesday it was reducing its workforce by 9% and cutting bonuses of senior executives to bring down costs. The technology industry has seen a wave of layoffs over the past few months as it grapples with slowing growth following a pandemic-led boom in digital services. F5's downsizing plan, which will affect 623 employees due to job cuts, also includes cutting back spending on office space and executive travel. The Seattle, Washington-based company also lowered its fiscal 2023 revenue growth forecast to "low-to-mid single-digit" from an earlier forecast of 9% to 11% growth, sending its shares down 5% in after-market trading.
