Palo Alto Networks Posts Solid Revenue Growth but Stock Drops on Guidance
Palo Alto Networks recorded a strong performance in its latest quarter with revenue rising almost 16% year-on-year to approximately $2.47 billion. The cybersecurity company also exceeded earnings expectations, but its shares fell more than 5% in extended trading as investors reacted to softer forward-looking guidance and acquisition-related spending plans. 
Market experts note that while demand for security modernization remains robust, investor sentiment is increasingly sensitive to profitability visibility and integration risks associated with expansion initiatives.
