The companys revenue for the second fiscal quarter (ending May 3rd) was approximately $22 billion, compared to analysts average forecast of $20.5 billion, with some forecasts even exceeding $22 billion. Its stock was virtually unchanged in late trading, after the companys earnings release, which did not generate significant market volatility.
