    STRETCHEDCONFIDENCE4/5

    ServiceNow fell 18% after reporting a slight adjusted EPS miss despite revenue narrowly beating estimates. The magnitude of the decline is far larger than the mixed earnings variance alone, indicating a severe market reaction to the report and outlook expectations.

    WHYDown 18% on a $0.02 EPS miss and a roughly $11M revenue beat is a much larger move than the disclosed quarterly variance supports.
