After-Hours Alert: What's Going On With Micron Stock?

Micron Technology Inc MU shares are volatile in Wednesday's after-hours session after the company reported fiscal first-quarter financial results that came in below estimates. 

What Happened: Micron posted first-quarter revenue of $4.08 billion, which missed average analyst estimates of $4.12 billion, according to Benzinga Pro. The company reported a quarterly net loss of 4 cents per share, which missed average estimates for a loss of 1 cent per share.

"Micron's strong technology, manufacturing and financial position put us on solid footing to navigate the near-term environment, and we are taking decisive actions to cut our supply and expenses. We expect improving customer inventories to enable higher revenue in the fiscal second half, and to deliver strong profitability once we get past this downturn," said Sanjay Mehrotra, president and CEO of Micron.
