NEW YORK – Agilent Technologies announced that it is withdrawing its second-quarter and fiscal year 2020 guidance due to the global impact of COVID-19 on its business activities.
While the firm's Q2 revenues rose 2 percent through March, it noted a significant disruption in business activity in late March, especially in the US and Europe, as customers closed or restricted access to their facilities in an attempt to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
