In announcing preliminary results, CEO Ed McVaney said JD Edwards has recovered better than expected and was reporting earnings above expectations.
The company now thinks revenue will be as much as $215m for the quarter, but made no predictions as to whether it will get into the black. The 400 lay-offs - representing eight per cent of staff - are part of a wide-ranging cost reduction scheme.
In January JD Edwards reported a net loss of $4.4m on revenue of $218m, six per cent down on the previous year.
