Will Microsoft (MSFT, $164.20) miss its guidance due to Cornavirus crisis?
Microsoft has indicated that its sales would fall short of guidance as a result of the Coronavirus crisis.
On Wednesday, the tech behemoth said that it will miss its previous sales guidance of between $10.75 billion and $11.15 billion for its "more personal computing" business, which includes Windows OEM and Surface. While the company thinks demand for Windows is in line with their expectations, the supply chain is taking more time than anticipated in returning to normal operations. That’s why, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2020 the company does not expect to meet their More Personal Computing segment guidance, since Windows OEM and Surface are more adversely affected than previously expected.
