International Business Machines Corp.'s (IBM) fourth-quarter profit grew 8.7% as the tech giant posted higher margins and revenue inched up.
The company also said it expects 2010 earnings of at least $11 a share, saying it was confident in its ability to "achieve the high end of our long-term road map." Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected, on average, $10.89 a share.
The company sees double-digit-percentage software sales growth in its current quarter and consistent earnings-per-share growth throughout 2010. Chief Financial Officer Mark Loughridge also said during a conference call that IBM's 2010 tax rate should be 26% to 26.5%, roughly in line with last year's.
Despite the rosy outlook, and results that topped expectations, shares fell 2.1%, to $131.36 in after-hours trading.
IBM has benefited for years from its shift toward software and services, particularly those geared toward improving efficiencies of infrastructure systems, and away from hardware. And while IBM has noted the global economy has somewhat stabilized, it and Wall Street analysts have been awaiting signs that demand will continue to improve through 2010.
Big Blue posted a profit of $4.81 billion, or $3.59 a share, up from $4.43 billion, or $3.27 a share, a year earlier. Revenue inched up 0.8%, to $27.23 billion, but down 5% when adjusted for currency.
Analysts projected earnings of $3.47 on revenue of $26.96 billion.
Gross margin grew to 48.3% from 47.9%, led by improved margins in both services segments and systems and technology.
IBM's service contracts jumped 9%, including 22 contracts greater than $100 million.
On Thursday, another tech bellwether, computer-chip maker Intel Corp. (INTC), provided further evidence that the technology market is regaining strength, reporting a surge in fourth-quarter profit and a strong outlook for 2010.
