NEGATIVE IMPACT
Check Point Software Technologies reported Q3 revenue growth of 7%, with security subscriptions up 11.5%. However, margins declined due to a 12.5% increase in operating expenses. Despite a 37% YTD gain, CHKP shares are down 7.69% premarket.
The decline in operating margins and the increase in operating expenses are likely causing investor concern, leading to a premarket drop in CHKP shares. Despite strong revenue growth in security subscriptions, the overall financial performance did not meet investor expectations.
