Oracle hits lower target
Software maker's profit matches its reduced expectations
March 15, 2001: 4:33 p.m. ET


NEW YORK (CNNfn) - Software maker Oracle Corp. reported a fiscal third-quarter profit of 10 cents per share Thursday, matching its recently reduced estimate.

At $2.7 billion, Oracle's third-quarter revenue was slightly above the $2.5 billion it reported during the same period a year earlier. The company's results matched the lower profit executives told the Street to expect earlier this month.

Prior to the pre-announcement, the Street had been expecting Oracle to report a profit of 12 cents per share for the quarter. Shares of Oracle (ORCL: Research, Estimates) fell $1.38 to $14.69 on Nasdaq ahead of the earnings news, which was released after the closing bell. They fell another 28 cents to $14.41 in after hours trade.
