Ashland Inc. reported better-than-expected earnings per share, which contributed to a slight increase in the stock price. However, there was no revenue figure provided, and no guidance was issued for future performance. The stock's modest gain reflects a positive reaction to the EPS surprise despite the lack of additional information.
