Boeing—Boeing reported adjusted quarterly profit of $1.62 per share, beating estimates of $1.37, with revenue also above forecasts. Boeing did reduce its full-year EPS guidance by 50 cents on both the high and low end, but that reduction was less than the 77 cent charge announced last week for a redesign of its tanker program.

Coca-Cola—The beverage maker beat estimates by 3 cents with adjusted quarterly profit of 63 cents per share, with revenue also above Street estimates. Worldwide case volume was up 2 percent, more than analysts had been expecting.

Campbell Soup—The food company raised its full-year guidance, saying planned cost savings had kicked in earlier than expected.

Whirlpool—The appliance maker reported adjusted quarterly profit of $2.70 per share, 8 cents above estimates, though revenue was slightly short of forecasts. Whirlpool did see negative impact from a strong dollar and weakness in the Brazilian market, but that was offset in part by benefits from recent acquisitions.

EMC—The data storage company beat estimates by 2 cents with adjusted quarterly profit of 43 cents per share, but revenue fell short. The company said it saw good acceptance of its newer products, but also observed conservative spending by IT customers.

Thoratec—The medical products maker will be acquired by St. Jude Medical for $3.4 billion in cash or $64.50 per share.

Separately, St. Jude reported adjusted quarterly profit of $1.03 per share, 3 cents above estimates, with revenue also above forecasts.

Chipotle Mexican Grill—Chipotle edged out estimates by a penny with quarterly profit of $4.45 per share, though revenue was slightly below analyst forecasts.

GoPro—GoPro scored a 9-cent beat with adjusted quarterly profit of 35 cents per share, and revenue also came in well above estimates. The maker of high definition cameras was helped by strong sales in its Asian markets.

Yahoo—Yahoo reported quarterly profit of 16 cents per share, missing estimates by 2 cents, with revenue essentially in line. The company's results were hurt by higher user acquisition costs, and its current quarter revenue guidance also fell below analyst estimates.

Intuitive Surgical—The company earned an adjusted $4.57 per share for its latest quarter, beating estimates of $3.98, and revenue came in above analyst forecasts as well. The maker of surgical devices also gave an upbeat growth forecast for surgical procedures using its equipment.
