Read MoreHide Full Article
A better-than-expected February jobs report moved stocks higher in morning trading Friday. The latest employment figures, which come on the nine-year anniversary of the so-called “generational bottom,” seem to confirm the fundamental health of the economy. But for those paying attention to fourth-quarter earnings season, that health was probably already apparent.
At this point, well over 90% of the S&P 500 members have reported their latest results, and the numbers have been pretty impressive across the board. Revenue growth was strong, and U.S. tax reform inspired positive guidance.

1. Coupa Software Inc.
Coupa Software is a popular growth company that provides a cloud-based spend management platform designed to connect organizations with suppliers. Coupa is scheduled to release its latest quarterly financial results after the market closes on March 12. Heading into the report date, COUP is holding a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
Our latest Zacks Consensus Estimate is calling for Coupa to report an adjusted loss of 15 cents per share. Nevertheless, the company is expected to post revenue growth of 28%, with total quarterly sales reaching $48.6 million. The stock is also sporting an “A” grade for Growth in our Style Scores system before its report.
Creative software giant Adobe is scheduled to post its most recent quarterly earnings report on March 15. ADBE has emerged as one of the tech sector’s hottest stocks lately, with shares gaining more than 80% over the past year. With that kind of momentum, investors will definitely be looking for a great report from Adobe.
ADBE is currently holding a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). Our latest Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for adjusted earnings of $1.43 per share and revenues of $2.04 billion. These results would represent year-over-year growth of 52% and 21%, respectively.
Semiconductor behemoth Broadcom has been dominating headlines thanks to its proposed merger with Qualcomm (QCOM). The status of that deal is still up in there, but investors will certainly want to focus on Broadcom’s latest results to gauge its financial health as the deal potentially progresses.
Ahead of the report, AVGO has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Based on our latest consensus estimates, we expect the company to report adjusted earnings of $5.03 per share and revenues of $5.32 billion. These results would mark year-over-year improvements of 39% and 29%, respectively.
