15 minutes ago

Charles Schwab (SCHW) shares soared Tuesday as the financial services company reported better third-quarter results than analysts had expected, and also lifted its projections for full-year revenue.

The investment management firm reported $4.85 billion in total revenue, up about 5% from the same time last year and higher than analysts had expected, per estimates compiled by Visible Alpha. Profits were also higher than expected, and jumped 25% to $1.41 billion, while net interest income (NII) fell by a few million to $2.22 billion, narrowly above estimates.

The company also lifted its revenue projection for the full year, calling for a 2% to 3% increase, up from previous estimates of flat to up 2%.

Charles Schwab shares were up about 7% early Tuesday afternoon, trading at their highest level in three months. The stock is now back into positive territory for the year.

The stock plunged in mid-July following the firm’s second-quarter report, when CEO Walt Bettinger said it planned to reduce the size of its bank to improve profitability.

J&J Rises as Results Top Expectations

1 hr 16 min ago

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) shares advanced Tuesday after the pharmaceutical and medical device company posted better-than-expected third-quarter sales and adjusted profit.

Johnson & Johnson reported $22.47 billion in revenue, up 5% year-over-year and better than analysts had projected, according to estimates compiled by Visible Alpha. It registered $2.69 billion in net income, down 38% and well short of expectation, on billions in one-time expenses like legal costs and acquisitions.

After accounting for over $3 billion in one-time expenses like legal costs, “intangible asset amortization expense,” and the cost of acquisitions, Johnson & Johnson’s adjusted profit of $5.88 billion came in more than half a billion dollars higher than expected.

The company also adjusted its full-year outlook, lifting sales projections to $88.4 billion to $88.8 billion from the prior range of $88 billion to $88.4 billion.

The stock was up nearly 2% in recent trading.
