Shares of IBM slipped 3% in morning trading Wednesday after reporting weak fourth-quarter results[1] and plans to cut additional jobs.

The company says it will take a $1 billion "workforce rebalancing" charge this year, and one analyst estimated the company could cut between 10,000 and 15,000 workers.

For the fourth quarter, IBM reported a 26% decrease in revenue from hardware, and a dip in service revenue.

Meanwhile, both eBay and Netflix will report earnings after the markets close Wednesday.
