Kimberly-Clark, Intel, Snap and more

May 14, 2021 by Staff Reporter

Here are the stocks making significant moves on Friday.

Kimberly-Clark – The consumer products stock slumped 5.9% after Kimberly-Clark fell short of analysts’ estimates for the first quarter. The company reported earnings per share of $1.80, 13 cents below what Wall Street expected, according to Refinitiv. Revenue also missed estimates as organic sales in North America declined. Kimberly-Clark also cut its guidance for earnings and revenue.

Intel – Shares of the chipmaker dipped more than 5%, following the company’s first quarter results. Intel beat top and bottom line estimates, but results were down year over year. During the period the company earned $1.39 per share on an adjusted basis on $18.57 billion in revenue. Analysts were expecting the company to earn $1.15 per share and report $17.90 billion revenue, according to estimates from Refinitiv.

Snap – Shares of the social media company gained 7.5% after Snap reported a better-than-expected quarter. Revenue came in at $770 million compared to the expected $744 million, according to a survey of Wall Street analysts by Refinitiv. The company broke even for the quarter when excluding items, while analysts were anticipating a 6-cent per share loss.

American Express – The credit card company saw its shares fall 1.9% following a revenue miss. American Express reported $9.064 billion in sales for the first quarter, lower than the consensus of $9.205 billion. Its earnings per share came in above expectations, however, with $1.05 billion in credit reserve releases.

Honeywell – The industrial stock fell 2.1% even after a better-than-expected quarterly report. Honeywell beat estimates by 12 cents with adjusted quarterly earnings of $1.92 per share, while sales topped expectations as well. Honeywell’s aerospace segment remain a soft spot as sales in the area declined last quarter.

Analysts surveyed by Refinitiv were expecting 46 cents in earnings per share on $1.34 billion of revenue. The results also sparked an upgrade for the stock from Morgan Stanley.

Spotify – Shares of the audio company jumped more than 7% after Jefferies initiated coverage of the stock with a buy rating. The investment firm said Spotify should be looked as a platform and will benefit from the growth of the creator economy.

Skyworks Solutions – The chipmaker’s stock rose 4.1% after Skyworks announced a deal to acquire the infrastructure and automotive business of Silicon Labs. The all-cash deal is valued at $2.75 billion.
