美国专业人才派遣公司K力（Kforce Inc，股票代码：KFRC）周一盘后股价大幅下跌8.34%，主要原因是公司发布的第三季度业绩指引低于分析师预期。
K力公布的第二季度财报基本符合市场预期。该公司第二季度调整后每股收益为0.59美元，与分析师预期一致；营收为3.3432亿美元，略高于分析师预期的3.3423亿美元。尽管营收环比增长1.3%，但同比下降6.2%。
然而，投资者对公司的第三季度展望感到失望。K力预计第三季度营收为3.24亿至3.32亿美元，低于分析师预期的3.352亿美元。每股收益指引区间为0.53美元至0.61美元，中值也低于分析师普遍预期的0.61美元。这一疲软的指引引发了投资者的担忧，导致股价在盘后交易中大幅下跌。
K力总裁兼首席执行官Joseph J. Liberatore表示，第三季度指引"受到季度末客户特定动态的影响"，但他认为这并不代表当前稳定的需求环境。Liberatore强调，客户仍有大量战略性关键技术投资积压，一旦有更明确的积极前景，他们就会执行这些投资。尽管如此，市场似乎对公司短期增长前景持谨慎态度，这反映在盘后股价的大幅下跌中。
