- Super Micro (SMCI) shares dropped after lowering its fiscal year sales forecast, suggesting the company continues to face uneven uptake of powerful AI servers amid a shift to products based on new Nvidia Corp. chips. The company said Tuesday that revenue in the year ending in June 2026 will be at least $33 billion. In February, Super Micro offered a bullish long-term outlook because of demand for AI products, saying sales will be $40 billion — then almost twice as much as analysts’ estimates for the current fiscal year.
- Rivian (RIVN) forecast a larger adjusted loss this year than the electric vehicle maker expected previously, citing recent changes to stringent fuel economy rules in the US that threaten a key source of revenue. The adjusted loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization this year will be $2 billion to $2.25 billion, the company said Tuesday. It had previously forecast a loss of no more than $1.9 billion by that measure, while Wall Street analysts had expected about $1.8 billion on average. Shares slid in the aftermarket.
- Axon (AXON) shares soared in trading today and hit a record intraday high after the maker of Tasers and other public safety equipment reported second-quarter earnings per share that topped expectations. Analysts also noted strong bookings for the company’s AI plan.
