Walgreens (WBA) – The drugstore chain came in 5 cents a share ahead of estimates, with quarterly profit of $1.52 per share. Revenue also came in above Wall Street projections, however the company said the financial impact of COVID-19 outbreak is still uncertain.

Boeing (BA) – Boeing is offering a voluntary layoff plan, allowing eligible employees to leave the jet maker with a pay and benefits package.

Zoom Video Communications (ZM) – Zoom said daily users of its video conferencing technology soared to more than 200 million in March, compared to a prior high of 10 million.
