NEGATIVE IMPACT
FactSet's Q3 FY23 sales and adjusted EPS beat estimates, and the company raised its FY23 guidance. However, shares traded lower by 6.83%.
FactSet's better-than-expected Q3 results and raised guidance should have been positive for the stock. However, the market reacted negatively, possibly due to the company's outlook for GAAP revenues at the lower end of the prior range. This may have led to concerns about future growth, causing the stock to slide.
