This morning, Merck (NYSE:MRK) announced third quarter earnings of 85 cents per share, ex-items, narrowly beating Wall Street estimates of 82 cents per share. Though, with the stock trading lower in the pre-market, it appears traders are more focused on the top line miss by the company. Revenue for the third quarter came in at $11.12 billion, just short of the consensus estimate of $11.24 billion.
