SNCR Down

I just looked at the main numbers in the press release. Appears that top line grew almost 21% and EPS is up 16%. Cloud grew 43%.

The market is unhappy with the results this morning sending the stock down about 10% as I type.

I haven’t looked further into the call which I’ll do tonight. Therefore, I haven’t seen any guidance which could be a reason for today’s downdraft.

Does anyone out there have a feel for why the market is reacting so?

Thanks,
A.J.

It seems guidance might have been a bit weak. From Motley Fool contributor Timothy Green:

So what: Synchronoss reported quarterly revenue of $157.2 million, up 20.7% year over year and about $2 million higher than the average analyst estimate. Non-GAAP revenue from cloud services grew by 43% year over year, reaching $90.9 million and accounting for 58% of total non-GAAP revenue.

Non-GAAP earnings came in at $0.61 per share, up from $0.53 per share during the fourth quarter of 2014 and $0.04 better than analyst expectations. On a GAAP basis, the company reported EPS of $0.12, down from $0.30 during the prior-year period.

Now what: Despite the solid results, guidance fell short of analyst expectations. First-quarter revenue is expected to be between $142 million and $147 million, compared to analyst estimates of $156.3 million, while non-GAAP EPS is expected to be between $0.44 and $0.50, compared to analyst estimates of $0.55.

CEO Stephen Waldis is optimistic about the company’s long-term prospects…
