However, shares fell more than 2% after-hours today on weaker-than-expected full-year guidance.

Reflecting the softer macroeconomic environment, the company now expects 2023 EPS in the range of $5.40 to $5.43, compared to the consensus of $5.50, and revenue in the range of $6.8 billion to $6.85 billion, compared to the consensus of $6.97 billion.
