ARMONK, N.Y. — IBM said Wednesday that its second-quarter net income fell 17 percent as revenue slipped and it absorbed the cost of layoffs.

Net income came to $3.23 billion, or $2.91 per share, down from $3.88 billion, or $3.34 per share, a year earlier.

Excluding a $1 billion charge related to layoffs, IBM Corp.'s adjusted earnings came to $3.91 per share. That beat the $3.77 per share expected by analysts polled by FactSet, and IBM shares rose in after-hours trading.
