Palm (PALM) is moderately lower after the stock was a mixed mover in last evening's session. Palm reported Q1 non-GAAP revs of $360.7 mln, down from $366.8 mln in the year ago quarter. Non-GAAP loss was $0.10 per share, vs. a year ago loss of $0.12 per share. The Street view was revenue of $291 mln and a loss of $0.25 per share.

The company shipped a total of 823,000 smartphone units during the quarter, representing a 134 percent increase from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 and a year-over-year decrease of 30 percent. The company's planned product launches with additional carriers in the second half of its fiscal year, together with continuing sales from products launched in the first half of its fiscal year, are expected to yield stronger operating performance, resulting in non-GAAP Adjusted Revenues for fiscal year 2010 of $1.6 billion to $1.8 billion, it said. The Street view is $1.57 bln in revenue. The company's plan to sell 16 million shares provided some of the downward pressure, however.
