Thursday, April 25, 5:17 PM Websense (WBSN): Q1 EPS of $0.20 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $87.5M beats by $1.7M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News]
Monday, February 25, 10:31 AM Boutique research firm Off Wall Street has launched coverage on F5 (FFIV -4%) with a Sell and $70 PT, and has sent shares tumbling in the process. The report comes as F5 furthers its security ambitions by forming a partnership with Websense (WBSN). The companies have developed an enterprise security architecture that relies on F5's mainstay BIG-IP application delivery controllers and Websense's X10G and V-Series Web security/content inspection appliances. 2 Comments [Tech, On the Move]

Tuesday, January 29, 4:58 PM Tech guidance roundup: 1) Plantronics (PLT - earnings) expects FQ4 revenue of $190M-$195M and EPS of $0.68-$0.72, largely above a consensus of $184.4M and $0.68. 2) Freescale (FSL - earnings) expects Q1 revenue of $945M-$985M, above a consensus of $933.1M. 3) Websense (WBSN - earnings) expects Q1 revenue of $84M-$87M and 2013 revenue of $351M-$361M, below a consensus of $90.2M and $367.4M. PLT +2.8% AH. WBSN -7%. FSL unchanged for now. Comment! [Tech, Earnings]
Tuesday, January 29, 4:51 PM Websense (WBSN): Q4 EPS of $0.28 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $91.7M beats by $0.69M. Shares -7% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech, On the Move]
Monday, January 14, 3:47 AM Websense (WBSN) names company president John McCormack as CEO to replace Gene Hodges, who is retiring. The cybersecurity company also expects Q4 EPS of $0.27-0.28, below guidance of $0.32-0.35 and consensus of $0.33. The miss reflects increased sales commissions because of higher-than-expected billings. Revenues $91.5-92M, in line with guidance and slightly above consensus of $91.01M. (PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings]
Tuesday, October 23, 2012, 5:59 PM Websense (WBSN): Q3 EPS of $0.43 beats by $0.04. Revenue of $90.4M (+2% Y/Y) beats by $1M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech]
Wednesday, August 15, 2012, 10:23 AM EMC COO David Goulder re-affirms his company's interest in buying security companies (previous). EMC, whose Q2 security software sales rose 13% Y/Y, has been looking to reduce its storage hardware exposure lately, as storage value-add increasingly shifts to software running on servers. Potential targets include richly-valued names such as Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, and Sourcefire, and less costly vendors such as Vasco Data, IntraLinks, and Websense. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
Tuesday, July 24, 2012, 5:24 PM Websense (WBSN): Q2 EPS of $0.39 beats by $0.04. Revenue of $89.9M (-0.9% Y/Y) misses by $0.6M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech]
Wednesday, April 25, 2012, 3:48 PM As part of reporting in-line Q1 results, Websense (WBSN +4.5%) says it agrees to settle an outstanding dispute with the IRS relating to an audit of its 2005-2007 tax years. WBSN will pay $10M in federal tax plus $5M-$6M in state taxes and interest; it sees $4M in future tax benefits. The original amount of additional tax proposed by the IRS was $19M. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 3:19 PM Just hours after Interpol announces the arrests of 25 hackers linked to Anonymous, the international police agency’s website was targeted in a cyberattack that left it unreachable for a period of time. It's probably not the tipping point for cybersecurity stocks such as FTNT, WBSN, WAVX - but it adds to a growing discussion on how many companies and governments still remain ill-prepared to ward off sophisticated attacks on their systems. Comment! [Tech]
Wednesday, February 1, 2012, 2:07 PM Wells Fargo doesn't like what it sees in Websense's (WBSN -6.2%) lowered 2012 forecast, cutting the shares to Market Perform on the news. Wells says guidance was weak across virtually all metrics: revenue, billings, operating margins, EPS and cash flow. Separately, First Analysis also downgrades the shares on a poor billing growth outlook. Comment! [On the Move, Tech]
Wednesday, February 1, 2012, 10:29 AM Shares of Websense (WBSN -7.4%) lose ground after the firm sets top-line FY12 guidance below that of the estimate by analysts. The tech concern sees Q1 revenue of $88M-$91M vs. $92.2M consensus, and FY12 revenue of $364M-$374M vs. $379.5M consensus. Comment! [On the Move, Tech]
Tuesday, January 31, 2012, 5:42 PM Websense (WBSN): Q4 EPS of $0.44 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $92.7M (+7.3% Y/Y) beats by $1.7M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech]
Friday, December 9, 2011, 10:16 AM In the wake of the Blue Coat Systems (BCSI +44%)-Thoma Bravo deal, rivals Riverbed Technologies (RVBD +4.4%) and Websense (WBSN +6.6%) are catching speculative bids. Comment! [On the Move, Tech]
