On average, software companies beat Q2 revenue estimates by 2% and profitability expectations by 5%, RBC analyst Matthew Hedberg said. 

平均而言,軟件公司第二季度營收超出預期2%,盈利預期超出5%。紅細胞分析師Matthew Hedberg説。

Q3 was guided lower for both revenue and profitability while stocks moved on average 2.1% higher the day following earnings. 

第三季度營收和盈利能力雙雙走低,而股市在財報公佈後的第二天平均上漲2.1%。

While his attention shifted quickly to off-quarter software, he came out of the on-quarter cycle feeling okay about the durability of software and, to a greater extent, the ability to protect margins. 

雖然他的注意力很快轉移到了季度外的軟件上,但在季度週期結束後,他對軟件的耐用性以及在更大程度上保護利潤率的能力感到滿意。

Thematically, he saw better-than-expected results from Ad-tech and Design-based software, somewhat expected solid results from Security, while Application software was weaker. 

在主題上,他看到廣告技術和基於設計的軟件的結果好於預期,安全軟件的結果有些可靠,而應用程序軟件的結果較弱。

He came out of on-quarter earnings feeling better about trends from Dynatrace, Inc (NYSE: DT), HubSpot, Inc (NYSE: HUBS), Informatica Inc (NYSE: INFA), Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ: MSFT), ServiceNow, Inc (NYSE: NOW), PTC Inc (NASDAQ: PTC), PowerSchool Holdings, Inc (NYSE: PWSC), Xometry, Inc (NASDAQ: XMTR) and ZoomInfo Technologies Inc (NASDAQ: ZI) and have incremental questions about Fastly, Inc (NYSE: FSLY), Olo Inc (NYSE: OLO), Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE: PLTR) and Twilio Inc (NYSE: TWLO). 

他從季度收益中脱穎而出,對來自DyNatrace,Inc.(紐約證券交易所代碼:DT),HubSpot,Inc.(紐約證券交易所代碼:Hubs),Informatica公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:INFA),微軟(納斯達克:MSFT),ServiceNow,Inc.(紐約證券交易所代碼:NOW),PTC Inc.(納斯達克:PTC),PowerSchool控股公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:PWSC),Xometry,Inc.(納斯達克:xmtr)和ZoomInfo科技有限公司(納斯達克:ZI),並有更多的問題Fastly公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:FSLY),OLO公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:OLO),Palantir Technologies Inc.(紐約證券交易所股票代碼:PLTR)和Twilio Inc.(紐約證券交易所代碼:TWLO)。

MSFT results/guidance was better than expected, specifically on enterprise and Azure, but it did raise a cautionary note on SMB trends, he said. Hyper-scale results were better than expected. 

他説,微軟的結果/指導好於預期,特別是在企業和Azure方面,但它確實對中小企業的趨勢提出了警告。超大規模的結果好於預期。

NOW's Q2 cRPO guide was light of expectations but could set up a better scenario vs. what seemed like a high bar coming out of Q1, he said. 

他説,現在第二季度的cRPO指南沒有什麼預期,但可以設定一個更好的情景,而不是第一季度看起來很高的門檻。

There were mixed messages on firewalls as Check Point Software Technologies Ltd (NASDAQ: CHKP) had inline results/guidance while Fortinet, Inc (NASDAQ: FTNT) noted mixed results. 

防火牆上的信息褒貶不一,因為Check Point軟件技術有限公司(納斯達克:chkp)有內聯結果/指導,而Fortinet公司納斯達克(Sequoia Capital:FTNT)注意到好壞參半。

He noted mixed mid-cap security results as Varonis Systems, Inc (NASDAQ: VRNS) and Qualys, Inc (NASDAQ: QLYS) reported beat-and-maintain quarters, while Rapid7, Inc (NASDAQ: RPD) noted mixed guidance due to a slowdown in VM spend. 

他指出,中型股的安全結果喜憂參半瓦羅尼斯系統公司(納斯達克:vrns)和Qualys公司(納斯達克:QLYS)報告了節拍和維護季度,而Rapid7,Inc.納斯達克(Sequoia Capital:RPD)注意到,由於VM支出放緩,指引喜憂參半。

Within observability, DT cut estimates while Datadog, Inc (NASDAQ: DDOG) talked about a slowdown in consumption as he also saw a downturn in consumption from FSLY and TWLO. 

在可觀察性範圍內,DT下調了估計,而Datadog公司納斯達克(Sequoia Capital:DDOG)談到消費放緩,因為他也看到了FSLY和TWLO的消費下滑。

Front-office spending seems more resilient than expected, highlighted by HUBS and ZI, he noted. 

他指出,前臺支出似乎比預期更具彈性,Hubs和Zi強調了這一點。

Design-based names Altair Engineering Inc (NASDAQ: ALTR), ANSYS, Inc (NASDAQ: ANSS), Bentley Systems, Inc (NASDAQ: BSY), and PTC displayed resiliency with no macro pressure.

基於設計的名稱牛郎星工程公司(納斯達克:ALTR),Ansys,Inc.(納斯達克:ANSS),賓利系統公司(納斯達克股票代碼:BSY),PTC表現出韌性,沒有宏觀壓力。
