Baxter Stock Slides After Q3 Sales Fall Short

Baxter (NYSE: BAX) shares dropped over 16% to $18.82 in early-morning trading after the company's third-quarter results failed to meet Wall Street's consensus sales forecast.

The company reported a net loss of $46 million, or 9¢ per share, on sales of $2.84 billion for the three months ended September. This represents a 132% decline in earnings from the same period last year, despite a 5% increase in sales.

Adjusted earnings per share were 69¢, beating Wall Street expectations by 9¢. However, sales fell short of estimates, with experts forecasting $2.88 billion in revenue.

The company's Medical Products & Therapies segment reported $1.33 billion in sales, marking a 1% decline.

No comment from the company is available at this time.
