Pandora’s fourth quarter numbers got a poor reception Thursday as the company’s stock price fell as much as 26% in after hours trading. The company missed its estimates and gave a weaker-than-expected forecast outlook for the current quarter. The music streaming service reported revenues of $268.0 million versus analysts’ estimate of $277 million. Earnings came in as expected, at $0.18 a share. For the first quarter, Pandora is expecting revenues of $220 million to $225 million, compared to the $244 million that analysts had predicted.
