It was the 23rd time in 25 quarters that the company beat Wall Street forecasts, but a year-over-year revenue drop of 29% was the biggest going back to at least 1990, according to Refinitiv data.

Tapestry (TPR) – The luxury goods maker said CEO Jide Zeitlin stepped down for personal reasons. CFO Joanne Crevoiserat will serve as interim CEO while a search is conducted for a permanent replacement.

Official fourth-quarter results for Tapestry are scheduled for release on Aug. 13.

Philip Morris (PM) – The tobacco producer earned $1.29 per share, beating estimates by 19 cents a share. Revenue came in above estimates as well. Philip Morris also gave a full-year outlook that is mostly above Street forecasts, as overall industry volume rebounds.

IBM (IBM) – IBM reported quarterly earnings of $2.18 per share, 11 cents a share above estimates. Revenue also beat Wall Street forecasts, helped by better-than-expected results in cloud software sales and mainframe revenue, among other factors.

UBS (UBS) – UBS reported better-than-expected profit for its latest quarter, helped by strength in investment banking, and the Zurich-based bank said the strong performance raised the possibility that it could resume share buybacks later this year.

EBay (EBAY) – EBay struck a deal to sell its classified ads business to Norway’s Adevinta for $9.2 billion in cash and stock. It had been reported yesterday that the two companies were close to finalizing a deal.
