NEGATIVE IMPACT
Fastly reported better-than-expected Q1 results but issued weak revenue guidance for Q2 and FY 2024, causing a significant after-hours stock price drop.
Fastly's after-hours stock price plummeted due to its disappointing revenue outlook for the second quarter and the full year 2024, which fell below analyst expectations. This negative outlook, especially when contrasted with the Q1 performance that exceeded estimates, suggests a bearish short-term sentiment among investors concerned about the company's future revenue growth.
