Palo Alto Networks reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.02, beating the 98 cents expected by Wall Street and last year's 95 cents, according to Barron's. CNBC highlighted strong results driven by AI demand for security tools and an ongoing acquisition spree, noting the company's stock has nearly doubled this year. Despite the beat, shares plunged 11% to around $322 following the fiscal fourth-quarter report, as noted by Mint. Barron's described the results as capping a transitional year and said next year will be crucial.
