Shares were down 13% to $210.43 in Friday morning trading after hitting a 52-week low of $208.86 earlier in the session. The stock has fallen 4.4% in the past year.

The internet services company on Thursday posted a profit of $206.2 million, or $2.23 a share, compared with a profit of $191.5 million, or $2 a share, a year earlier.

The company also said it was raising its quarterly dividend by 5.2% to 81 cents a share from 77 cents a share.

The new payout, equal to $3.24 a year, represents a 1.3% annual yield based on the company's Thursday closing price of $242.62.

The dividend will be paid on Feb. 27 to shareholders of record as of Feb. 19.
