Once again, Red Hat exceeded expectations and defied the declining economy by achieving better-than-Wall Street-expected financial results in the third quarter of this year.

Contrary to specialists’ and its own estimates, Red Hat achieved revenue of $194 million in this fiscal period (ended November 30), which is an 18% increase this year. According to previous estimates for this quarter, Red Hat was expected to achieve revenue of 188 million.
Net income was $16.4 million, or $0.08 per share, down from the same period last year ($24.3 million). The reason for this is, among other things, the resolutions of court cases that took place in the quarter ended. Currently, further increases are expected in future accounting periods.
