Autonomy Warns On Annual Revenue; Stock Tumbles

Today : Wednesday 6 October 2010
U.K. software group Autonomy PLC (AU.LN) warned Wednesday that it will miss market expectations for its full-year revenue by around 3% as customers remain concerned about the difficult economic environment, triggering a share price slump.

Despite a strong third quarter, customers are "still showing volatility around their view of the current macro economic situation," the company said.

"This necessitates a prudent approach to forecasting, and thus we expect to review our internal model for the full year with a revenue reduction of around 3% on current consensus and commensurate changes to other parameters," Autonomy said in a surprise trading update.

As a result, it now expects for 2010 revenue growth of 17%, organic revenue growth of around 12% and profit before tax to be up approximately 20%.

Autonomy, which makes software that helps companies and governments keep track of their e-mails, phone calls and documents, has an extensive client list including Boeing Co. (BA), Deutsche Bank AG (DB), Citigroup Inc. (C), Lloyds Banking Group PLC (LLOY.LN) and Barclays PLC (BARC.LN).
