RESEARCH ALERT-Allaire cut to neutral

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Bear Stearns analyst Robert Fagin cut his rating on Internet software and services company Allaire Corp. (NasdaqNM: ALLR) to neutral from attractive on Thursday.

The company, on Wednesday after markets closed, posted third-quarter earnings and revenues that fell short of Wall Street forecasts, according to research firm First Call/Thomson Financial.

In a report, Fagin sharply cut his outlook for fourth-quarter earnings per share to a loss of 26 cents from a profit of 10 cents. He also cut his revenue estimate to $29.6 million from $42.6 million.

Fagin trimmed his outlook for fiscal 2001 earnings to a loss of 51 cents a share from a profit of 53 cents. The revenue outlook was reduced to $144.3 million from $215.3 million.

``Although we became very cautious on ALLR in mid-(third quarter 2000) ... we were shaken by the severity and magnitude of the impact structural problems -- weak channel sales, competition, a shifting customer base, and transitioning architectures -- had on revenues and earnings in (the third quarter) and will continue to have for the foreseeable future,'' Fagin wrote in a research note.

Shares of Allaire were off 1/4 at $6-1/2 in an otherwise breathtaking rebound session for tech stocks.

Sorry about the mess below... somehow this got posted 4 times.
