Sonos Inc (SONO) soared 29.84 percent after the Californian maker of wireless audio speakers posted performance well above estimates for its fourth fiscal year which ended at the end of September. Compared with the $299 million predicted by the FactSet consensus, revenue jumped 15.5 percent year-on-year to $339.8 million. Compared to a $29.6 million loss a year ago, the Santa Barbara-based corporation reported a net income of $18.4 million. Its per-share net income was 15 cents, compared to just 2 cents predicted by analysts and -28 cents a year earlier. Sonos expects revenue of $1.44 to $1.5 billion for the start of the year, up from a consensus of $1.28 billion.
L Brands Inc (LB) went up 17.67 percent on Thursday. The parent company of Victoria’s Secret has opened a new investigation into its founder, Les Wexner, and its alleged ties with Jeffrey Epstein. In a slightly different vein, thanks to record sales growth at Bath and Body Works and the demand for lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret, the company posted better-than-expected quarterly results on Thursday.
