Shares of Zoom Video Communications Inc. fell 8.9% to $88.75 in
after-hours trading on Monday after the video communications
platform company lowered its full-year outlook amid a weakening of
its online business.
Zoom benefited during the Covid-19 pandemic, when lockdowns and
other restrictions had many people working from home. Zoom's video
conference call technology replaced in-person meetings and helped
keep workers connected.
The company had expected adjusted earnings per share between
$3.70 and $3.77 on revenue between $4.53 billion to $4.55 billion
for the fiscal year ending in January.
On Monday, Zoom guided for adjusted earnings per share of $3.66
to $3.69 on a revenue midpoint of $4.39 billion.
The company said its second-quarter sales were hit by the strong
dollar and the weakening of its online business as people return to
work and rely less on video conference calls.
