IBM shares drop as software revenue misses

General News

Summary

IBM reported quarterly results that beat overall Wall Street expectations but missed analyst estimates for software revenue. Software revenue rose about 10%, while hybrid cloud revenue grew 16% and generative AI business reached $7.5 billion. The company also announced the next-generation z17 mainframe and closed its acquisition of Hakkoda during the quarter. IBM said client spending has become more cautious in some areas, but it still expects at least 5% constant-currency revenue growth for the year.
