During earnings season, we can gain value from the charts by judging how stocks react to their reports. We are especially mindful of support and resistance levels, watching for breakouts and breakdowns as technical catalysts. This supports upside follow-through for IQV in the weeks ahead towards resistance from a Fibonacci retracement level near $258. We ultimately expect the stock to retest final resistance, near $285, with a long-term time horizon. Long-term support on the chart is defined by the weekly cloud model, which rises to roughly $215 next month.

☆ IQVIA cuts annual profit forecast on slow demand for medtech, analytics services
▼ + stars: | 2023-11-01 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Nov 1 (Reuters) - IQVIA Holdings (IQV.N) cut its full-year profit forecast on Wednesday, citing weakness in demand for its analytics and medical technology solutions along with the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar. Thermo Fisher signaled that the demand slump from biotech clients for its contract research services could extend into the next year due to rising interest rates and a persistent funding crunch. On an adjusted basis, IQVIA reported a profit of $2.49 per share for the third quarter, topping estimates of $2.44 per share. The company now expects full-year adjusted profit to be between $10.16 and $10.23 per share, compared with its prior per-share forecast of $10.26 to $10.56. IQVIA now expects 2023 revenue between $14.89 billion and $14.92 billion, compared with its previous forecast of $15.05 billion to $15.18 billion.

Aug 1 (Reuters) - Contract research firm IQVIA Holdings (IQV.N) cut its annual profit and revenue forecasts on Tuesday, on expectations of slower demand from clients for its healthcare data and analytics services.

Excluding one-off items, IQVIA reported a profit of $2.43 per share for the second quarter, above analysts' average estimate of $2.37 per share.
