Diebold (NYSE:DBD)  is slated to release its fourth-quarter financial report before the opening bell. The company is expected to earn 84 cents a share on revenue of $837.7 million, according to the average estimate of analysts polled by FactSet Research.
Charles River’s (NYSE:CRL)  turn will come after the close and it will post a profit of 55 cents a share on sales of $282.8 million if Wall Street’s best estimate is on the mark.
First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR)  could be in the crosshairs again. Its shares slumped more than 10% Friday after the company said the U.S. Department of Energy declined to release funds at its Antelope Valley Solar Ranch project in California until the company has a construction permit.
Cobalt International Energy (NYSE:CIE)  may see some more upside. The company soared more than 30% after it said test results from a well off the coast of the African nation of Angola topped exploration estimates.
