0:00:02.520 --> 0:00:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News.

0:00:09.920 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 2>This is the closing bell on this stock movers report

0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:16.560
<v Speaker 2>the company's making moves at the close of US trading

0:00:16.800 --> 0:00:21.279
<v Speaker 2>with Carol Master, Tim Stenobeck, Romain Bostik, and Scarlett Foo.

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:25.000
<v Speaker 3>So let's talk about paramount, if we will, because it's

0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:28.600
<v Speaker 3>crossing the Bloomberg terminal as we speak. Ticker, of course

0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 3>is pa r A. And let me bring up the

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:34.800
<v Speaker 3>numbers here. Let's go to second quarter revenue the company

0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 3>six point eighty five billion. That is just pretty much

0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:40.559
<v Speaker 3>in line the street was looking for six point eight

0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:45.400
<v Speaker 3>seven billion second quarter adjusted EPs continuing operations forty six

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:48.280
<v Speaker 3>cents a share. That compares with an estimate of thirty

0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:51.960
<v Speaker 3>seven cents a share. We are seeing the stock, I

0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:53.880
<v Speaker 3>think initially. Are we seeing it?

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's kind of fluctuating, Carol, between gains and losses here.

0:00:57.000 --> 0:00:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Of course, the stock that is going to be absorbed

0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:01.720
<v Speaker 1>in the sky ants and repurpose, if you will, one

0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:04.280
<v Speaker 1>of the many earnings that were waiting to cross the wire,

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:07.720
<v Speaker 1>and that includes Amazon. Carol, I believe Amazon earnings now

0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:08.000
<v Speaker 1>on the.

0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:09.440
<v Speaker 3>Tape, all right, So let's get to it, because we

0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:12.720
<v Speaker 3>did see the stock gaining in the regular trade. Let's

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:16.399
<v Speaker 3>get to it. Second quarter EPs bucks sixty eight that

0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.840
<v Speaker 3>is thirty five cents better than the street was expecting.

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.479
<v Speaker 3>Second quarter net sales Folks one hundred and sixty seven

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:23.840
<v Speaker 3>point seven billion. Again, that's a beat. One hundred and

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:27.600
<v Speaker 3>sixty two point fifteen was what the street was looking for.

0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:32.720
<v Speaker 3>AWS Always Important net sales x FX up seventeen percent.

0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 3>That's in line with what the street was expecting. Second

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 3>quarter operating margin eleven point four percent. That to Tim

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:41.400
<v Speaker 3>is a beat. Ten point four percent was what the

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 3>street was expecting. Outlook Always Important sees third quarter net

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:46.920
<v Speaker 3>sales of one hundred and seventy four to one hundred

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 3>and seventy nine point five billion, and Tim, the street

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:52.320
<v Speaker 3>was looking for one hundred and seventy three point twenty four.

0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 3>So that's a beat. Stock right now up about one

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:57.000
<v Speaker 3>and a quarter percent here in the aftermarket.

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 4>Looking at what Andy Jasse says two shareholders. Our conviction

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 4>AI will change every customer experience is starting to play

0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:06.000
<v Speaker 4>out as we've expanded Alexa plus to millions of customers,

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 4>continue to see our shopping agent used by many millions

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:12.120
<v Speaker 4>of customers. Launched AI models like deep fleet that optimized

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:15.400
<v Speaker 4>productivity path with our one million plus robots made it

0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 4>much easier for software developers to write code. In addition,

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 4>he says, our AI progress across the board continues to

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 4>improve our customer experience is speed of innovation, operational efficiency

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:28.320
<v Speaker 4>and business growth. Andy Jasse is excited. He says, for

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.840
<v Speaker 4>what Liza head shares now lower by about one percent.

0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:33.760
<v Speaker 5>Let's talk a little bit about what they see ahead.

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 5>Third quarter net sales between one hundred and seventy five

0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:40.480
<v Speaker 5>billion dollars to one hundred and seventy nine point five

0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 5>billion dollars. The estimate had been for one hundred and

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 5>seventy three point two billion dollars, So a little bit

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 5>of an upgrade there. AWS, just to go back to it. Remember,

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.200
<v Speaker 5>there was a lot of focus on this because it's AWS,

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 5>but also because we saw Microsoft put up big numbers

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:58.200
<v Speaker 5>yesterday when it came to Azure. But it looks like

0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.799
<v Speaker 5>net sales for AWS beating as well.

0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, just real quickly, I'll roku shares hire in

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the after hours trade as well. The company coming in

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>with second query EPs of about seven cents. The street

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 1>was actually looking for a loss, so a beat on

0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:13.240
<v Speaker 1>that metric revenue of fifteen percent to one point one

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 1>to one billion, and that is a beat over what

0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the street was looking for.

0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 3>Guys, Hey, I just want to mention I'm going to

0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 3>go to first solo in a moment, but Amazon Sea's

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:24.120
<v Speaker 3>third quarter operating income a fifteen point five to twenty

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 3>point five billion. The estimate on the street is nineteen

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 3>point four to two billion, which might explain some of

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 3>the bouncing around that we've seen in shares of Amazon

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.320
<v Speaker 3>in the aftermarket. So we've seen it's pull it up,

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:36.000
<v Speaker 3>it's down about six ten percent.

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 4>Remain Let's talk a little strategy. The company formerly known

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.840
<v Speaker 4>as Micro Strategy. They've increased their fiscal year twenty five

0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:47.480
<v Speaker 4>bitcoin gain target to twenty billion dollars from fifteen billion dollars.

0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.160
<v Speaker 4>The company sees fiscal year twenty five earnings per share

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 4>of eighty dollars per share based on one hundred and

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:56.840
<v Speaker 4>fifty thousand dollars bitcoin outlook. Remember bitcoin's out just shy,

0:03:56.840 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 4>I have one hundred and twenty thousand dollars right now.

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 4>Sees net income of twenty four billion dollars c fiscal

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 4>year operating income of thirty four billion dollars. Their second

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:09.320
<v Speaker 4>quarter cash and cash equivalents has missed estimates. Shares in

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 4>the after hours are well, I can't really tell it

0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 4>right now. Yeah, up about half a percent, all.

0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Right, breaking news also here on Fanny and Freddie, both

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.600
<v Speaker 1>stocks moving higher in the after hours trade. This after

0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.800
<v Speaker 1>report by Bloomberg citing people familiar with the situation that

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 1>President Trump has met with leaders at JP Morgan, at

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:29.240
<v Speaker 1>Goldman Sachs, and at Bank of America at the White

0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>House and asked them to devise a plan to monetize

0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:35.800
<v Speaker 1>the mortgage giants. I remember, these are effectively the government sponsored

0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>enterprises that have been in conservatorship since the financial crisis

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:43.560
<v Speaker 1>back in six seven eight, a path maybe potentially to

0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:45.240
<v Speaker 1>being released from that conservatorship.

0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:47.919
<v Speaker 5>Interesting to see this breaking news because, of course, we

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 5>learned earlier today that Goldman CEO David Solomon was meeting

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.040
<v Speaker 5>with Trump on Thursday afternoon. We know that he invited

0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 5>JP Morgan's Jamie Diamond last week. I believe Brian moynihan

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.640
<v Speaker 5>also scheduled to appear there. Now some details about what

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:07.359
<v Speaker 5>exactly they're talking about, and certainly a hot topic there.

0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:10.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no doubt about it. These quasi public private enterprises

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.480
<v Speaker 3>have always been fascinating. All right, let's get to another

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:19.000
<v Speaker 3>earnings crossing. We're talking about KLA Corp. Crossing the Bloomberg terminal.

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.400
<v Speaker 3>Let me just pull it up here on my Bloomberg

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 3>and you've got KLA fourth quarter revenue three point seventeen

0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 3>billion dollars. That's a bit of a beat. The estimate

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:30.160
<v Speaker 3>on the street was three point zero eight billion fourth

0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:33.400
<v Speaker 3>quarter just ADPs nine dollars thirty eight cent census share.

0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 3>That is certainly some outperformance there. The street was looking

0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:39.080
<v Speaker 3>for eight dollars fifty five cents. Let's go to the

0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 3>outlook first quarter just at EPs for KLA. They're looking

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.839
<v Speaker 3>for a justed EPs in the first quarter of seven

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:49.680
<v Speaker 3>dollars seventy six cents a share to nine dollars thirty

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:52.560
<v Speaker 3>cents a share. The street estimate is for eight dollars

0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:55.040
<v Speaker 3>and seventeen cents. Right now, we're looking at KLA ten

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:58.280
<v Speaker 3>core up about one point six percent here in the aftermarket.

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:01.239
<v Speaker 4>In the aftermarket shares a coinbase more than three percent.

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 4>Remember these shares were up fifty two percent going into

0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 4>the print today. The company was second quarter subscription and

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.880
<v Speaker 4>services revenue that missed estimates, coming in at six hundred

0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:13.440
<v Speaker 4>and fifty five point eight million, total revenue for the

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:15.919
<v Speaker 4>second quarter coming to shy of estimates at one point

0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:18.560
<v Speaker 4>five billion, trading volume coming in shy of estimates at

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:22.520
<v Speaker 4>two hundred and thirty seven billion, and to second quarter

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:26.159
<v Speaker 4>transaction revenue coming in at seven hundred and sixty four

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:28.760
<v Speaker 4>point three million. That's shy of estimates of eight hundred

0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.440
<v Speaker 4>and ten million. Once again, shares right now lower by

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:32.880
<v Speaker 4>about five point four percent.

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:34.719
<v Speaker 5>Well, I have a good news story, and that is

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 5>what's going on with Reddit of course reporting, and you

0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:40.080
<v Speaker 5>can see the chairs are up eleven percent after hours.

0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:44.839
<v Speaker 5>That's after Reddit raised its third quarter revenue forecasts. They

0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.599
<v Speaker 5>now see revenue for the third quarter between five hundred

0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.160
<v Speaker 5>and thirty five million dollars to five hundred and forty

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:54.160
<v Speaker 5>five million dollars. The previous estimate was for around four

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:58.000
<v Speaker 5>hundred and seventy three million dollars, So a big boost there,

0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:00.760
<v Speaker 5>and it also helps that they beat on second quarter

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.599
<v Speaker 5>revenue as well. So beaten a raise coming out of Reddit.

0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm just going to squeeze on one last one in

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.280
<v Speaker 1>rocket companies just reporting as well. Shares hire by eight

0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 1>percent in the after hours trade, the mortgage company saying

0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 1>that adjusted revenue did come in above estimates at one

0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:17.440
<v Speaker 1>point three four billion EPs coming in above estimates at

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 1>four cents a share, and the guidance for the third

0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.440
<v Speaker 1>quarter the company says revenue should be in a range

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:25.160
<v Speaker 1>of one point six to one point seventy five billion, And.

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:26.760
<v Speaker 3>Just quickly want to end in first solo because we're

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 3>seeing that stock move up about four percent in the

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 3>aftermarket second quarter EPs three eighteen to two sixty six.

0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 3>Talking about the outlook ceas fiscal year EPs of thirteen

0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:40.240
<v Speaker 3>fifty to sixteen fifty a share, that is above twelve

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 3>fifty to seventeen fifty, so bit of a range there,

0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.720
<v Speaker 3>but nonetheless, we are seeing that stock, which has been

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:48.640
<v Speaker 3>under some pressure, up about four point six percent. And

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:51.360
<v Speaker 3>just a reminder, we've got Amazon now down about two

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:52.200
<v Speaker 3>point three percent.
