The Associated Press created this story using technology provided by Data Skrive and data from Sportradar .(Reuters) – Dell Technologies missed Wall Street expectations for third-quarter revenue on Tuesday, weighed down by weaker demand for its traditional PCs and stiff competition from rival server makers. The company’s shares fell more than 5% to $134 in extended trading. Dell reported revenue of $24.37 billion in the quarter, compared with the average analyst estimate of $24.67 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG. Despite booming demand for Dell’s AI-optimized servers used to handle large AI workloads, its traditional PC segment has been facing stiff competition from rivals such as HP and weaker consumer spending amid an uncertain economy. Revenue from Dell’s client solutions group, which houses its PC business, came in at $12.13 billion, below expectations of $12.43 billion. “Interest in our portfolio is at an all-time high, driving record AI server orders demand of $3.6 billion in Q3 and a pipeline that grew more than 50%,” Dell’s Chief Operating Officer Jeff Clarke said on Tuesday. As Dell’s server revenue grows, investors are keenly eyeing the company’s costs after it flagged in May that higher expenses to build AI-heavy servers and competitive pricing would hurt its margins. The company is also betting on new AI PCs to boost its traditional computer business. Revenue from Dell’s infrastructure solutions group, which includes its AI servers, rose 34% to $11.37 billion, compared with estimates of $11.35 billion. The company’s servers and networking revenue for the third quarter jumped 58% to $7.36 billion, but missed estimates of $7.64 billion.

NJ Benson recorded a first-half double-double, and finished with 22 points and 17 rebounds, as host DePaul rolled to an 84-65 victory over Loyola Maryland on Saturday in Chicago. With David Skogman out due to a lower-body injury, the 6-foot-8, Missouri State-transfer Benson made the most of his first start this season. Benson posted 14 points on 7-of-9 shooting and grabbed 12 rebounds in the first half, as DePaul (9-4) focused on its inside game and outscored Loyola Maryland 28-12 in the paint en route to a 44-26 halftime lead. Benson, who averaged 6.5 points and 4.0 rebounds entering the game, matched a career high in scoring Saturday, while those boards are a personal best. Jacob Meyer added 12 points for the Blue Demons, one of the nation's top 3-point shooting teams that went just 5 of 24 from distance, but scored 52 points in the paint. DePaul bounced back following consecutive losses to St. John's and Northwestern by a combined 48 points. Jacob Theodosiou had 22 points and Milos Ilic scored 13 for the Greyhounds (5-6), who shot 38.5 percent in the first half and committed 15 overall turnovers while falling to 1-67 against major-conference opponents since February 1982. DePaul scored the game's first eight points, beginning with a Benson dunk. Loyola didn't record its first field goal until Ilic's bucket with 14:11 remaining in the opening half, but used a 9-0 run to get within 13-12. However, Benson and DePaul's dominance in the paint never allowed the Greyhounds to go ahead. The Blue Demons led 18-16, then scored the next seven points, highlighted by dunks from Benson and CJ Gunn (11 points). DePaul was ahead 32-23 with 3:20 left in the first half when it took control by scoring 12 straight points before Jordan Stiemke's 3 made it an 18-point game at the break. The Blue Demons were 1-of-11 from 3 through the first 20 minutes. In the second half, another Benson dunk and two free throws were featured during a 12-2 run that put the Blue Demons up 66-37 with roughly 12 minutes remaining in the contest. --Field Level Media

No. 22 Texas A&M beats Texas Tech 72-67 in 1st meeting of former conference rivals since 2012
VST Tillers Tractors remains steadfast in its commitment to achieving a revenue target of ₹2,000 crore for the fiscal year 2026 (FY26), driven by strong growth across its core segments: power tillers, tractors, and power weeders. In an interview with CNBC-TV18, Antony Cherukara, CEO of VST Tillers Tractors, stated that the company is aiming for over 20% revenue growth in fiscal year 2025 (FY25), building on the ₹500 crore revenue recorded during the first half of the year (April-September). International markets, particularly Europe and the US, are pivotal to the company’s growth strategy. While exports contributed 12-13% of revenue last year, Cherukara expects this to increase to 25% within three years. He also anticipates that profit margins will remain in the 11-13% range for the current financial year (FY25). Discussing future strategies, VST is exploring opportunities for inorganic growth and geographical expansion, though no specific deals have been finalised. The company also owns 25 acres of valuable land in Bangalore, which it may monetise to fund growth initiatives if required. Below is the verbatim transcript of the interview. Q: For the month of November, the volume numbers are looking pretty good. Tractors on a lower base, have popped up and even the overall numbers are up between 6% and 7%. So that's good news. For the year give us a guidance on the three segments that you operate on - tillers, tractors as well as weeders - what kind of growth are you looking at in comparison to the last fiscal? Cherukara: Second half of the year is good for agriculture. The rains have been good and so we expect the demand to grow in second half compared to the previous year. On our power tiller business, we are looking at about 10 to 15% growth. We are looking at tractors to grow between 15% and 20%. For the power weeder business, we are kind of doubling the business. So it is accelerating. While all the three segments grow, we are also looking at the international market, specifically at Europe. We have some new product launches that we have done. Despite the war and the logistics cost going up, we expect at least a 10% growth in the international market as well. Q: First half of the year, revenues are at around ₹500 crores. What are you targeting for the entire year because you still have that aspirational target of ₹2,000 crores for FY26, that's still on the cards? Cherukara: That is definitely on the cards. I'm looking at 20% plus kind of growth for this financial year. And I think the way things are panning out in H2, I think it is very much doable and the visibility for the next year is still maintained at ₹2,000 crores. About the US market, we have announced the launch and we have registered the companies and we would be launching the products in the US market in Q4 of next year. Q: And how much is the potential revenue that you see from exports as a proportion of your overall sales in the next two to three years, Europe and US? Cherukara: International business as a whole was about 3% three years back. Last year we clocked about 12%-13%. In the next three years, we expect the overall international business to be at about 25% of our revenue. Q: For this fiscal you're looking at a 20% growth, in comparison to last year, that is revenue growth? Cherukara: Yes. Q: You did around 13% margin as of the last quarter, but it's been steadily improving, which is great. Do you get back to the high teens? Is that possible? And also if you could give us a sense about receivables from governments that's coming in, right? There is no problem on receivables as of now? Cherukara: There is no problem on receivables at this point. In quarter two we saw a slight increase in receivables which was all pending payments, that is coming through in Q3. So no issues on the receivables front. Coming to the margins, we had given a guidance of about 11%-13% and we continue to stick to that. This is considering the large revenue expenditure we are doing in terms of entering new markets, both in India, which is the northern markets with the higher horsepower tractors and the US market with compact tractors and electric machines. Q: On the higher tractors, you had a target of 1,000 units this year itself, that's the Zetor JV that we're talking about. How much have you done so far and what's the target here? Cherukara: We don't want to give out the numbers, but I can tell you that we will be very close or we would be hitting the target this year. Q: The market cap has moved up and the stock has done quite well of late. But it seems the street is ascribing a good amount of value to that land that you have, the 25 acres. What's the decision? The last time around, you told me we will be taking a decision on that soon. What's the decision? Cherukara: What I told you is at the appropriate time we will take a decision - that is when we need the money for further growth. Right now we have not taken a decision on that as yet but we are looking at inorganic opportunities and as it arises and when the need of money is required, we will be doing that. Q: What is the rough value for this 25 acres if you have to put a number to it? Cherukara: I don't have a market value but all of us know that real estate prices are increasing in cities like Bangalore. So it augurs well for the company. Q: Typically, one acre. How much does it cost? Let's keep it simple. I'm not asking about your land in particular, but in Bangalore, give us a rough range. Cherukara: I am not an expert on that. Q: But you will have a better idea because you are closer to Bangalore. So you give us a broad range at least. Cherukara: I have no idea because I don't want to be terribly wrong with whatever I say. Q: You said that you are looking at inorganic plans as well. You gave us a mild hint here. What is it that is on your mind? Cherukara: We are looking at growing geographically as well as in terms of products. So we are evaluating couple of opportunities, but it's too early to announce anything. So once things are more concrete, we will be announcing it. Q: So that ₹2,000 crores of revenue target for the next year includes some part of inorganic growth, right? Cherukara: No, we have not taken that into account as yet that. Eventually, we have to chase down the ₹3,000 crore vision as well. That will definitely play a role in that.
Thomas Sorber collected 22 points, 12 rebounds and four blocks to pace Georgetown to an 83-53 win against shorthanded Coppin State on Saturday afternoon in Washington, D.C. The Hoyas pulled away from the Eagles with a 21-2 run early in the second half. Georgetown held Coppin State to 22 percent shooting in the second half and 18 percent from behind the arc. Georgetown (11-2) is off to its best start since the 2011-12 season. Drew Fielder recorded 20 points and 13 rebounds while Malik Mack had 15 points and 11 assists for the Hoyas. Georgetown played without its leading scorer Jayden Epps, who missed the game with a lower-body injury. Toby Nnadozie scored 22 points and Julius Ellerbe III added 12 to go along with six steals for the Eagles (1-13). The Hoyas' decisive second-half run started with Caleb Williams' steal that led to a Fielder lay up as Georgetown took 49-37 lead. Moments later, Fielder's turnaround in the lane put the Hoyas up 56-37. Sorber's jam with 6:36 left gave Georgetown a 67-41 advantage. The pesky Eagles rattled off a 7-0 run but got no closer than 19 points the rest of the game. The Eagles played without three of their top four scorers but forced 14 Georgetown turnovers in the first half and hit 5-of-8 3-pointers. Ellerbe corralled a loose ball near half court and distributed it to Nnadozie who converted a contested layup to pull CSU within 12-11. But the Hoyas held a 24-10 rebounding edge in the first half as Sorber and Fielder were a force inside the paint. The Hoyas created separation as Sorber worked the high-low game with a catch in the lane and a left finger roll for a 25-15 Hoyas' lead with 8:40 left in the first half. Zahree Harrison's 3-pointer kept the dogged visitors close and capped a 5-0 run that cut the Georgetown lead to 25-20. Nnadozie closed the first half with a 3-pointer and the Hoyas held a 37-30 lead. --Field Level MediaBo Richter ‘continues to excel’ as Vikings special teams come off roller-coaster performance against BearsThe reigning Super Bowl champions saw their run of 15 straight wins ended by the Buffalo Bills last week. The Kansas City Chiefs bounced back from their first defeat of the season with a dramatic 30-27 win over the Carolina Panthers. The reigning Super Bowl champions saw their run of 15 straight wins ended by the Buffalo Bills last week, but got back to winning ways thanks to star quarterback Patrick Mahomes. After a late Chuba Hubbard touchdown and two-point conversion had made it 27-27, the Chiefs got the ball back with less than two minutes on the clock and a 33-yard run from Mahomes helped set up Spencer Shrader for a game-winning field goal. Mahomes finished the game with 269 yards and three touchdowns, two of them to Noah Gray in the first half. Running back Jahmyr Gibbs scored two touchdowns as the Detroit Lions beat the Indianapolis Colts 24-6 to improve their record to 10-1, matching that of the Chiefs. David Montgomery also ran for a score before having to leave the game with a shoulder injury. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers ended a four-game losing streak with a 30-7 win over the New York Giants, who “mutually agreed” to terminate the contract of quarterback Daniel Jones earlier this week. Jones’ replacement Tommy DeVito was sacked four times while opposite number Baker Mayfield ran for a touchdown and completed 24 of 30 pass attempts for 294 yards. Rachaad White, Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker also ran for touchdowns in a one-sided contest. The Dallas Cowboys ended their five-game losing streak with a remarkable 34-26 win over the Washington Commanders, with 30 points scored in the final three minutes. KaVontae Turpin’s 99-yard kick-off return for a touchdown looked to have sealed victory for the Cowboys, only for the Commanders to respond with a field goal before getting the ball back with 33 seconds remaining. Wide receiver Terry McLaurin sprinted 86 yards through the Dallas defence for a touchdown, only for Austin Seibert to miss the extra point. The Commanders tried an onside kick and Juanyeh Thomas returned it 43 yards for a touchdown. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa threw four touchdown passes as the Miami Dolphins cruised to a 34-15 win over the New England Patriots, while the Tennessee Titans pulled off a surprise 32-27 victory at the Houston Texans. The Minnesota Vikings improved to 9-2 thanks to a 30-27 overtime win against the Chicago Bears, Parker Romo kicking the decisive field goal from 29 yards.
