Among the companies with shares expected to trade actively in
Friday's session are Tyco International Ltd. (TYC) and Edgewell
Personal Care Co. (EPC).
Tyco International Ltd.'s posted on Friday adjusted profit in
line with expectations for its September quarter, even as revenue
continued to be hurt by foreign currency impacts. Shares fell 2.74%
to $35.50 in premarket trading.
Edgewell Personal Care Co. said Friday that sales fell 14% in
its fourth quarter, the first reporting period since spinning off
its household-products business in the summer. Shares fell 8.25% to
$72.00 premarket.
Applied Materials Inc. (AMAT) on Thursday reported order growth
and a 31% jump in profit, helped by a smaller income-tax charge,
though revenue fell short of Wall Street expectations. Shares rose
3.75% $17.15 premarket.
Blue Buffalo Pet Products Inc. (BUFF) on Thursday reported an
11% sales increase in the third quarter, its first report as a
public company.
El Pollo Loco Holdings Inc. (LOCO) on Thursday lowered
expectations for the year after reporting a sharp drop in
third-quarter profit.
Nordstrom Inc. (JWN) on Thursday cut its projections for the
year as it reported disappointing third-quarter results following
the sale of its U.S. credit-card portfolio.
Party City Holdco Inc. (PRTY) on Thursday reported weak revenue
growth for its third quarter, weighed down by soft traffic, and the
company lowered a key sales forecast for the year.
Planet Fitness Inc. (PLNT) raised its 2015 guidance as the
budget fitness chain reported better-than-expected results for the
third quarter.
Time Inc. said Thursday it plans to start buying back $300
million of its stock and paying down $200 million in debt
regardless of the status of the sale of its London headquarters.
However, if the sale of the Blue Fin Building is delayed or falls
through, the company said Thursday, the stock and debt repurchases
"would likely correspondingly be delayed or adjusted."
Yum Brands Inc. (YUM) said sales at established stores in its
struggling China division rose 5% in October, compared with 6% the
previous month, led by a 9% decline in Pizza Hut. It was the
company's first monthly report since it said last month that it
plans to spin off the unit, which accounts for about half of its
sales and was once at the center of the its expansion plans.
