#earningscall

Of course being replaced by ai is not impossible, and obviously scary, yet hilarious to think about our executives regurgitating data organized by ai because they won’t even know what’s incorrect.

Do we think changes will be announced at earnings call next week?

Anyone knows why Viasat hasn’t reported its Q4 and FY26 earnings?

Or are they announcing in the earning call the layoff plan and it takes place in June?

Information from the extensive deep research:

My base case is that a broad, post-earnings layoff announcement is unlikely, but selective reductions, tighter hiring controls, or reallocation out of slower-growth teams remain plausible. On the evidence available before the May call, I estimate the probability of any publicly visible layoff action within roughly 90 days after the call at 25%–40% (medium), with the probability of a broad company-wide program above 3% of headcount at 10%–20% (low). Confidence is medium, because the company’s operating trend is clearly improving, but it has also shown that it will still prune selectively even during periods of rising revenue

Said clearly on the earnings call , 150 million left for open reduction this calendar year

1 billion left in the overall plan , to be achieved with AI agents

Summary : more layoffs before end of June and anyone doing manual work to be replaced with automation in the next 12-24 months

This feels lame. It was clearly prepared and just a long running poor AI voice reading. How can the CEO do that? The head of our company cannot speak at the earnings call?

If you look at DH’s plan, and the way he speaks on earnings calls, he is copy/pasting from a playbook from Nike.

No notice of layoffs in Alpharetta.

Obviously, I am not asking for binding financial advice, just curious, do you guys think there will be any stock market movement on this big Investor Day and if so, do we think it'll be up or down? Earnings calls are already regularly terrible and I'm not sure what an "investor day" would do differently since people already see through the smoke and mirrors of those.

earnings call is still may 13. that hasn't changed.

but g2's thing on may 21 canceled, beyond the numbers moved into that timeslot, and a beat scheduled for the original timeslot of beyond the numbers on the same day now? they're doing a beat and beyond the numbers back to back?

I hope a company with a massive windfall wouldn't do such a thing, though.

An Analyst asked on the Earnings call if Meg thought there was a scenario where this discovery wouldn't proceed to development. He started his question by saying how big AF described it to be.

She did not answer the Analyst's question about whether there's a way it doesn't get developed.

CO2 is clearly a know issue with these fields. To not answer and dodge the question by sayijg a great team is working the project sounds like reason to run.

Should we be worried we've dug ourselves into a hole we can't get out of with this biggest discovery in 25 years?

I watched both the earnings call and the CEO's all hands and the message from both was pretty positive. Nothing like the message he conveyed right before the big layoff back in November. I'm thinking things look good until at least November.

He better beat the expectations on Monday morning, otherwise stock is going back to under 40.

Christian Klein confirmed on CNBC this morning layoffs are coming when he challenged if he would follow META's call of a 10% cut.

He said efficiency is a priority for SAP

He wastes more than half of these meetings regarding everything he talks about in the earnings calls.

The guy can't comprehend that employees care about things other than share price.

Everything leadership tried failed, it’s the employee fault for not being efficient enough. AI, AI, AI. Saved you an hour.

Anyone like to give some predictions? Stock up or down tomorrow?

I feel that Q1 earnings call will be a complete disaster. CK and DA are unhinged and have not grounded in reality anymore. They keep blaming employees, the market and even shareholders for their own personal failures. In a market where many companies are ki-ling it, SAP is left so far behind because of only one thing. A complete lack of strategy. There is no strategy besides we are doing AI in this feature. It is d-mb and shareholders will not be impressed anymore. Layoffs will take the price up a bit. They're increasing the dividend so shareholders will like that and the price will go up a bit. But there are no technical fundamentals that show growth compared to competitors. The Gartner magic quadrant and similar things are all bought for and even shareholders see through it. Even institutional investors are reducing stake in SAP. And SAP is trying to buy back its own stock like crazy because they want to pump it up temporarily. And so the share price will go up but come crashing down again. To less than 100. This is bound to happen before the end of 2026. And then in 2027, we will find out that CK gets a bonus of a quarter of a billion for this Katastrophe.

Tone deaf as ever. Sure they may be hyped if they ever saw any of it.

What are people expecting to happen in the coming months. With new CEO and next earnings call do you think there will be layoffs and changes.

5 days until 2025 earnings call.

Will we get 2026 store closing announcements?

Any other surprises coming?

Questions are almost always asked and answered at the end of these calls.

I'm prepared for lots of bad news, but we'll see.

The call was scheduled for the 19th but it's the 31st now. Anything to do with layoffs?

So the brain trust didn't hand in their homework and asked for an extension to file their year end numbers. I'm sure the numbers are great, and they didn;t lie through their teeth on the earnings call.

Wul talking more b4ll today. Says Employees are great but doesn't says he doesn't pay them. Says his going to turn around the share price or break the company up.

Next is investor day in June, buys him a qtr. Betting all his hopes on Hogan and AI generating loads of SAAS revenue.

Hopefully, we can deliver the quantification of the message and sell the message and get the message received and people buy the stock and the stock goes up. If that doesn't happen, I know there's breakup value here that's above and beyond where we have today. And it's been public. We've had different suitors and they've leaked stuff.

The breakup value is there today. I'd like to get it to a different level. I'm not saying never, but I am saying today, I've got great assets, great footprint, great people, great trajectory, great direction, and I want to give our people a chance, and we're generating cash. we're going to stabilize the revenue profile. And I think Investor Day will be a great day to show how that picture really frames out. But I'm also a realist. If the play doesn't work, we're going to change the play and how to get value for all of us as investors if we have to change the play

It’s my bet they only supplied Pfizer during the pandemic cutting off dr-gs in phase trials, ki-ling the dr-g programs wholesale. In other words, destroying their sales pipeline, alienating researchers, blowing up trust. No wonder they don’t need the Lamar site for the foreseeable future.

No show at the sales kickoff, sorry commercial summit in Orlando. Nasser Khodri doing all the talking. Stephanie relegated to a 2 minute video measage at the end of the keynote session. Apparently she really wanted to be here but it wasn’t possible because she has to do the earnings call tomorrow. I guess the FIS private jet must be out of service, along with all motorised transport between here and Jacksonville…

Does anyone have any thoughts going into the Earnings Call? This will be the first time Amit presents in front of the investors.

Does anyone know if there will be any layoffs in the SBG , considering that it’s one week now after the earnings call?

I came from the Splunk side, where company bonuses were often. With the most recent earnings call and stock dip, what is the likelihood we receive?

Reading between the lines in the call, it sounds like we’re in for a big headcount reduction.
