Stocks to Watch: International Business Machines, Southwest Airlines, Robert Half

Dow Jones

04-24

By Connor Hart

International Business Machines backed its outlook for 2025, citing that a shift in business spending towards AI and automation could pose a benefit. It also reported higher-than-expected first-quarter profit and revenue. The company hasn't yet seen any material changes in consumer purchasing patterns, CEO Arvind Krishna said. Still, he noted that "uncertainty may cause clients to pause and take a wait-and-see approach." Shares fall 6.6%, to $229.30, in after-hours trading.

Southwest Airlines pulled its estimates for earnings before interest and taxes for 2025 and 2026, but the carrier affirmed that new initiatives to improve its financial performance are still on track. The company reported a first-quarter net loss of $149 million. On an adjusted basis, its loss of 13 cents a share was narrower than the loss of 18 cents a share analysts were expecting. Demand weakened throughout the quarter and sales softened, particularly for domestic leisure travel. Shares fall 1.6%, to $25.10, in post-market trading.

Robert Half reported a decrease in first-quarter profit and revenue, citing moderated business confidence stemming from heightened economic uncertainty over U.S. trade and policy developments. The management-consulting firm posted earnings of 17 cents a share on revenue of $1.35 billion, compared with analyst views for earnings of 36 cents a share on revenue of $1.41 billion. "Client and job seeker caution continues to elongate decision cycles and subdue hiring activity and new project starts," CEO M. Keith Waddell said. Shares fall 15%, to $39.34, in after-hours trading.
