On October 21, Thermo Fisher Scientific fell 3.63% in Pre-Market Trading, trading at $662.5, with turnover of $4.1942 million.
The move followed the company’s third-quarter results, which came in above market expectations but were met with a weaker immediate share-price reaction.
Thermo Fisher Scientific reported adjusted earnings per share of $6.68 for the quarter, up from $5.79 a year earlier and above the $6.40 consensus estimate. Revenue was $12.137 billion, up from $11.12 billion a year earlier and ahead of the expected $11.946 billion. Recent analyst target-price increases had already lifted expectations, which may help explain why the stock fell even after an earnings beat.
