On August 6, ServiceNow fell 3.4% in regular trading, trading at $113.85/share, with turnover of $239 million.
On the news front, AppLovin reported second-quarter revenue of $1.92 billion, missing both its own guidance midpoint and analyst expectations of $1.94 billion. The company's CEO acknowledged underperformance, citing slower-than-expected AI model improvements in its core gaming advertising business. The disappointing results triggered broad-based selling across software stocks, with Oracle falling over 3%, Salesforce dropping nearly 4%, and Adobe declining 2.6%.
ServiceNow's own fundamentals remain intact, with second-quarter adjusted EPS of $0.90 exceeding the consensus estimate of $0.85, and full-year subscription revenue guidance raised to $15.76-15.78 billion. The company continues to advance its AI transformation strategy, having completed the $7.55 billion acquisition of cybersecurity firm Armis and launched new autonomous security solutions. However, sector-wide contagion from AppLovin's miss dominated short-term price action.
