Its secure agile networks revenue came in at 5.87 billion, a miss from the expected 6.07 billion. Right now Cisco is under pressure.

 

Synopsys (Nasdaq: SNPS)

Synopsys is up 4.27% premarket after posting positive results for its second quarter. Revenue was up about 25% over last year, coming in at $1.279 billion. Adjusted net income came in with an even bigger rise of 46% from year ago levels, and its $391 adjusted profit gave it earnings of $2.50 per share compared to $1.70 in the second quarter last year. Synopsys is looking strong.

 

Fleetcor Technologies (NYSE: FLT)

Fleetcor Technologies is up 3.14% premarket after the company announced the completion of its $500 million debt financing.

Bath & Body Works (NYSE: BBWI)

Bath & Body Works is down 6.85% premarket after the company cut its revenue outlook for the year. The cut was mainly due to the expected increase in inflation, as it now expects to take a hit somewhere between $225 million and $250 million from inflation this fiscal year. That's $75 million more than originally planned.
