Wells Fargo Securities: IBM to Release 2018 Q4 Results, Initial 2019 Guidance


A Wells Fargo Securities report says IBM (NYSE: IBM) is scheduled to release on Tuesday its fourth-quarter results for 2018 and initial guidance for 2019.

According to the report released Friday, shareholders of Red Hat (NYSE: RHT) approved a deal for IBM to acquire the Raleigh, N.C.-based software company for approximately $34B or $190 in cash per share.

IBM announced in October 2018 that it agreed to buy Red Hat in a push to create a global hybrid cloud provider.

œFor services, we believe the expectation is for further growth and favorable margin trajectory in both the [global business solutions] and [technology solutions and cloud platform] segments, the financial services firm added.
