Bottom line Cisco unveiled a stellar fiscal second quarter after the closing bell on Wednesday, and its ability to dramatically raise guidance came as a surprise to most investors. Cisco's software sales increased by 10% on an annual basis in its fiscal second quarter, while software-subscription revenue grew by 15%. But analysts and investors remain uncertain about the health of the company's orders once that backlog dries up. Much of that software revenue is ratable, meaning revenue is spread out over a long period and not recognized immediately. Guidance Cisco's quarter may have been better than what the Street expected, but where it really shined was guidance.
Feb 15 (Reuters) - Cisco Systems Inc (CSCO.O) on Wednesday raised its full-year earnings forecast and delivered strong second-quarter results, indicating that spending on network infrastructure was staying resilient in the face of an economic slowdown. For fiscal 2023, Cisco said it expects revenue growth of 9% to 10.5%, and adjusted per share earnings between $3.73 to $3.78. It had previously forecast revenue growth of 4.5% to 6.5% and earnings per share of $3.51 to $3.58. Its second-quarter adjusted earnings of 88 cents per share and revenue of $13.59 billion were both higher than market estimates pooled by Refinitiv. "This is very strong growth and shows that the company may finally be exiting a difficult period related to supply-chain challenges," said Scott Raynovich, chief analyst at Futuriom.

REUTERS/Siphiwe SibekoSILVERTON, South Africa, Jan 26 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Thursday lauded the Ford Motor Co's 100-year history of assembling vehicles in South Africa and underscored Washington's resolve to expand trade ties with countries that it "can count on," including South Africa. About 600 U.S. companies operate in South Africa, employing about 220,000 people and generating revenue equivalent to about 10% of South Africa's entire gross domestic product, U.S. Ambassador to South Africa Reuben Brigety said at the event. As in her comments to South Africa's finance minister earlier on Thursday, Yellen did not address South Africa's refusal to take sides over Russia's war in Ukraine or Washington's concern over military exercises it plans with China and Russia. That includes our many trusted trading partners on this continent — like South Africa."
Microsoft’s revenue sniffles are tech’s flu

NEW YORK, Jan 24 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Microsoft’s (MSFT.O) revenue growth rarely falters. Microsoft’s revenue from computer manufacturers for installing the Windows operating system fell 39%. And companies looking to cut costs will delay, or kill, IT projects, which will hit even Microsoft’s fastest-growing units. Microsoft’s revenue sniffles, however, probably signal bigger problems for tech firms that sell less essential goods to consumers and firms.

Still the luxury hotel and casino company reported solid third-quarter results boosted by its U.S. properties. Amazon (AMZN) reported results that were disappointing, to say the least, and compounded by guidance that was even worse.
