What: Shares of Infoblox (NYSE: BLOX ) have popped today by as much as 18% after the company reported earnings.
So what: Revenue in the fiscal third quarter came in at a record $58 million, topping the Street's $56 million forecast. Non-GAAP earnings per share totaled $0.11, also ahead of the $0.06-per-share adjusted profit that investors were expecting.
