Why Nutanix Stock Ascended in August
It ended its latest fiscal year quite impressively.
Overview
Cloud and enterprise software company Nutanix (NASDAQ: NTNX) probably doesn't want the summer to end, given how well its stock did in August. Boosted by the estimates-trouncing fiscal fourth-quarter and full-year report it posted toward the end of the month and a subsequent wave of analyst price targets, its shares exited August with a more than 16% gain.
The month didn't exactly start on a high note for Nutanix. Four days into it, the company divulged in a regulatory filing that it aimed to reduce its workforce by roughly 5%. Stating that this decision was reached after a review of its business structure, Nutanix said the move will cost it roughly $33 million to $43 million. The reductions should be complete by the end of October.
