Will CyberArk Software Ltd. Sink or Swim?

Shares of CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR) plunged 16% on July 14, after the cybersecurity firm reported preliminary second-quarter figures that missed its own guidance. CyberArk expects its revenue to rise just 13%-14% annually for the quarter, compared to its previous forecast for 21%-23% growth.

It expects flat to 5% growth in non-GAAP operating income, which also misses its forecast for 28%-38% growth. CyberArk mainly attributes those declines to a slowdown in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region, where certain deals couldn't be closed on time.
