MongoDB Stock Plunges 23.85% On Weak Guidance
MongoDB shares (
MDB) fell more than 20% in premarket trading on Friday due to weak guidance from the company. The document-oriented database provider, which makes money by selling add-on features and support for its open-source document-oriented database, guided fiscal second-quarter adjusted earnings of between 46 cents and 49 cents per share, well below analysts' forecasts of 58 cents a share. It projects net sales in the period of $460.0 million to $464.0 million, also below the $470.4 million Street estimate. MongoDB (MDB) now expects full-year adjusted earnings per share of between $2.15 and $2.30, compared with previous guidance of $2.27 to $2.49. The company pegs revenue at between $1.88 billion and $1.90 billion, versus a previous forecast of between $1.90 billion and $1.93 billion.
The weak outlook follows light guidance from other enterprise software companies, such as Salesforce, UiPath, and Workday, as corporate customers spend more cautiously amid an uncertain economic environment. For the first fiscal quarter ending April 30, the company reported adjusted earnings of 51 cents per share on revenue of $450.6 million. Analysts had expected earnings of 40 cents a share on sales of $439.7 million.
MongoDB shares (MDB) have continued to move lower since a bull trap pattern appeared on the chart in mid-February. Recently, the 50-day moving average (MA) crossed below the 200-day MA to form a bearish death cross, with the price breaking down below the lower trendline of a multi-month trading range on Wednesday accompanied by the highest share turnover in a single day since early March.
