FactSet Research Systems Inc. Research Report
On June 18, 2013, FactSet Research Systems (FactSet) reported its Q3 FY 2013 financial results (period ended May 31, 2013). The Company reported revenue growth of 6.1% YoY to $214.6 million.

"We again delivered double-digit diluted EPS growth and our free cash flow reached an all-time high of $92 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Off-market conditions, especially on the sell-side, continue to interrupt client buying patterns and limited our ASV growth this quarter as expected," said Philip A. Hadley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to return capital to shareholders as evidenced by a 13% increase in our dividend and a $200 million expansion to our share repurchase program during the quarter."

Finisar Corp. Research Report
On June 19, 2013, Finisar Corporation (Finisar) announced its Q4 FY 2013 and full-year FY 2013 financial results (period ended April 28, 2013) The Company's revenues for the quarter increased to $243.4 million, up 2.1% QoQ driven by strength in datacom product sales, partially offset by lower product revenue. For FY 2013, the Company reported revenues of $934.3 million, down 1.9% YoY. Compared to FY 2012, the sale of products from datacom applications increased 10%, primarily from sales of 10G and 100G transceivers and transponders, while the sales of products for telecom applications decreased 17.3%, mainly as a result of sluggish carrier capital expenditure levels.
