Fleet and equipment tracking software maker Samsara (IOT) delivered better-than-expected quarterly results and provided impressive current-quarter and full-year guidance that surpassed Wall Street’s expectations, sending its shares more than 15% higher ahead of Friday’s opening bell.

For the fiscal fourth quarter ending Feb. 3, the San Francisco-based company posted 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:adjusted earnings of 4 cents per share, a penny above analysts' consensus view.

He specifically pointed to healthy demand from the construction sector, logistics companies, food distributors, transportation firms, and local government.

For the 2025 fiscal year, the company guided earnings between 11 to 13 cents a share, with the lower end of that range sitting ahead the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Street estimate of 9 cents per share.
