The first rumor says that Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is looking to buy Mandiant. This rumor comes from unnamed sources that claim talks are underway. However, they also warn that a deal may not result from these discussions.

Then we have to talk about a recent strategic partnership with SentinelOne (NYSE:S). This is a challenger to Microsoft in the cybersecurity realm and the fact it’s working with Mandiant has some wondering if it won’t steal the company out from under MSFT.

Investors can speculate all they want, but what does Mandiant have to say about all of this? Not much. The cybersecurity company is refusing to comment on the acquisition rumors. Microsoft is also remaining tight-lipped about any possible deal, Barron’s notes.

There’s also other news about MNDT stock that investors will want to know about today. The company released Q4 earnings after-hours yesterday. This saw its adjusted losses per share of 10 cents beat out Wall Street’s estimate of -13 cents. Its revenue of $132.89 million was also above analysts’ estimate of $131.5 million.

MNDT stock is also seeing a decent amount of trading this morning on the acquisition rumors and earnings news. As of this writing, nearly 2 million shares of the company’s stock have changed hands. That’s quickly approaching its daily average trading volume of 3.6 million shares.

MNDT stock is up 2.9% as of Wednesday morning.
