Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As used in this press release the term "reported" refers to measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The term "adjusted" refers to non-GAAP operating performance measures that exclude special items such as restructuring and integration charges, amortization expense, excess tax benefits ("ETB") associated with stock-based compensation, gains and losses associated with changes in the carrying value of our strategic investments and other items.

Non-GAAP adjusted measures are presented because management believes those measures are useful adjuncts to GAAP results. Non-GAAP adjusted measures should not be considered as an alternative to the corresponding measures determined under GAAP. Management may use these non-GAAP measures to evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, to analyze the underlying trends in our business, to establish operational budgets and forecasts and for incentive compensation purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and analysts to evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, as well as to analyze the underlying trends in our business and to assess our performance. The additional tables attached below include reconciliations of non-GAAP adjusted measures to GAAP measures.

The three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 include losses associated with the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration accrual associated with previous acquisitions, recorded in other operating expense (income), net.  Additionally, for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the pre-tax impact primarily represents a $24 million impairment charge on certain long-lived assets related to the exit of a business, recorded in other operating expense (income), net.

(c) 

For all periods presented, the pre-tax impact represents gains and losses associated with changes in the carrying value of our strategic investments, principally recorded in equity in earnings of equity method investees, net of taxes, and other income, net.

(d) 

The three and six months ended June 30, 2025 include a $46 million pre-tax gain, recorded in other operating expense (income), net, from a payroll tax credit under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act associated with the retention of employees.  Additionally, the six months ended June 30, 2025 includes an $8 million gain, recorded in equity in earnings of equity method investees, net of taxes, representing a non-recurring gain related to a lease.

(e) 

For restructuring and integration charges, other gains/charges, gains and losses on investments, and amortization expense, income tax impacts, where recorded, were primarily calculated using combined statutory income tax rates of 25.5% for both 2026 and 2025.  No income tax impact was recorded on losses associated with the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration accrual associated with previous acquisitions.

3)

For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 0.5 million shares of our common stock for $100 million.  As of June 30, 2026, $1.3 billion remained available under our share repurchase authorization.

4)

The outlook for adjusted diluted EPS represents management's estimates for the full year 2026 before the impact of special items. Further impacts to earnings related to special items may occur throughout 2026. Additionally, the amount of ETB is dependent upon employee stock option exercises and our stock price, which are difficult to predict.

Second quarter global motorcycle shipments increased 9 percent, while wholesale unit shipments were lower than retail unit sales. This is aligned with Company plans as dealer inventory management remains a top priority. Revenue was up 6 percent driven by increased shipments and favorable foreign exchange effects, partially offset by net pricing. Parts & Accessories revenue was down 5 percent and Apparel & Licensing revenue was up 2 percent.

Second quarter gross margin came in at 27.5 percent, which was down 108 basis points versus prior year. Gross profit was impacted favorably by manufacturing and other costs, including a tariff recovery that benefited gross profit. The favorability was offset by unfavorable product mix, net pricing, raw materials, and foreign exchange effects. Operating expenses came in $6 million lower than a year ago, at $232 million, including a restructuring expense of $3 million. Second quarter operating income margin was 6.6 percent compared to 5.9 percent in the prior year quarter.

In the second quarter, HDFS revenue was down 55 percent from prior year, driven by lower retail finance receivables. The decline in retail receivables was due to the sale of loan assets that took place in the second half of 2025. Other income within HDFS revenue was favorable year-over-year due to new servicing fees.

HDFS operating income came in at $22 million in the second quarter, a decrease of $48 million or 69 percent from the prior year period. On the expense side, both interest expense and the provision for credit loss expense were significantly lower, which was due to the decreased size of the retail loan portfolio and related debt on a year-over-year basis. Operating expenses increased by $3 million versus prior year. Total quarter-end net finance receivables, including both retail and wholesale loans, were $2.6 billion, a 64 percent decline compared to the prior year primarily due to the sale of loan assets that took place in the second half of 2025.

The Company's ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of the Company's dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability and financial capacity of its dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related products and services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company's dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating their businesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions, or other factors.

Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc.'s retail credit losses will continue to change over time due to changing consumer credit behavior, macroeconomic conditions including the impact of inflation and Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc.'s efforts to increase prudently structured loan approvals to sub-prime borrowers. In addition, Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc.'s efforts to adjust underwriting criteria based on market and economic conditions, and actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values, may impact Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc.'s retail credit losses.

The Company's operations, demand for its products, and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by changes in tariffs, inflation, work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, war or other hostilities, including the conflict in Iran, or other factors. Refer to "Risk Factors" under Item 1.A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026, for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release includes financial information that is not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP", "GAAP"), including Adjusted EBITDA for HDMC and LiveWire and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for HDMC. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different from similarly-titled measures disclosed by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of the Company's financial performance.

Adjusted EBITDA for HDMC and Adjusted EBITDA for LiveWire are defined as Harley-Davidson, Inc. consolidated net income, excluding, on a consolidated basis, interest expense, income tax provision, investment income, and other income, net. Depreciation and amortization for HDMC and LiveWire, respectively, are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA for HDMC and LiveWire, respectively. In addition, certain other items impacting consolidated net income are excluded from HDMC Adjusted EBITDA and/or LiveWire Adjusted EBITDA. For example, the Company may exclude from HDMC or LiveWire Adjusted EBITDA the impacts of certain events, gains, losses or other costs and charges, such as corporate restructuring activities, reorganizations or one-time employee termination benefits, that affect the period-to-period comparability of HDMC's and LiveWire's operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is used by HDMC and is defined as HDMC Adjusted EBITDA divided by HDMC revenue.

The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for HDMC and Adjusted EBITDA for LiveWire more clearly identify the core trends in the respective ongoing business operations that could otherwise be masked by the effects of the items that the Company excludes from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for HDMC and Adjusted EBITDA for LiveWire. These non-GAAP measures allow management and investors to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons, and benchmark performance with other comparable companies and between periods without regard to items the Company does not consider a component of core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have limitations and should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, consolidated net income as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain items excluded from HDMC and LiveWire Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be construed as implying that the Company's results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

This earnings release includes a reconciliation of Harley-Davidson Inc. consolidated net income to HDMC Adjusted EBITDA and LiveWire Adjusted EBITDA.

Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF) Reports Q2 Loss, Tops Revenue Estimates
CLF Cleveland-Cliffs
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF - Free Report) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.2 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.21. This compares to a loss of $0.5 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +4.76%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this mining company would post a loss of $0.44 per share when it actually produced a loss of $0.4, delivering a surprise of +9.09%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.

Cleveland-Cliffs, which belongs to the Zacks Steel - Producers industry, posted revenues of $5.23 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.88%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $4.93 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates two times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Cleveland-Cliffs shares have lost about 28.8% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 9.6%.

What's Next for Cleveland-Cliffs?While Cleveland-Cliffs has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Cleveland-Cliffs was favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to outperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.21 on $5.39 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and -$0.15 on $20.59 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Steel - Producers is currently in the top 20% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Nucor (NUE - Free Report) , another stock in the same industry, has yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on July 27.

This steel company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $4.57 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +75.8%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 6.3% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.

Nucor's revenues are expected to be $10.06 billion, up 19% from the year-ago quarter.

Hims & Hers stands to gain if the FDA loosens restrictions on peptides

SummaryCompaniesAnalysts estimate peptide industry is worth $2 billion to $3 billionFDA advisers will weigh whether peptides can be used for compoundingRulemaking to add peptides could take up to a year, former FDA official saysHims & Hers aims to offer peptide compounds, if approvedJuly 23 - Hims & Hers Health (HIMS.N), opens new tab is set to tap what analysts estimate could be ​a multi-billion-dollar market for peptides if U.S. regulators loosen manufacturing restrictions.

Hims, primarily known for its personalized treatments of conditions ranging from hair loss to ‌acne, is eyeing peptides not long after its attempts to create compounds of popular weight-loss drugs were smacked down by U.S. regulators. Peptides — used for everything from pain to muscle recovery to beauty — have been promoted by social media influencers and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Jumpstart your morning with the latest legal news delivered straight to your inbox from The Daily Docket newsletter. Sign up here.

A U.S. Food and Drug Administration advisory committee meets this week to discuss whether the regulator should loosen ​compounding restrictions on seven peptides. If the restrictions are eased, research firm Needham & Co estimates the market could be as big as $3.3 billion, while Leerink analyst ​Michael Cherny estimated the market at $2.2 billion.

Peptides' wider use hinges on the FDA. Because Kennedy has said he has used them, ⁠some analysts say approval is likely regardless of the committee's decision.

If that happens, rulemaking that would allow compounders to make the products for patients could take up to ​a year, according to a former FDA official who requested anonymity.

Hims & Hers first announced it would pursue peptide therapies in 2025, when it purchased a manufacturing facility that ​can produce them. CEO Andrew Dudum has said the treatments would grow in popularity as demand for preventative health increases.

Peptide treatments are drugs built from short chains of amino acids, the same building blocks the body uses to make proteins.

Timing for the launch is uncertain. Dudum said in April that the company would not need to be the first U.S. company to offer peptides.

"If guidance changes, ​our clinical and compliance teams will assess what that means for our platform, and we will adjust accordingly," a Hims spokesperson said.

Hims owns one of the most ​popular compounding pharmacy businesses, which mix ingredients to create personalized treatments for patients. Its stock is notoriously volatile, with dramatic surges and equally staggering selloffs.

Over the last five months, the stock has ‌more than ⁠doubled, in part because the telehealth company entered into a partnership with Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk (NOVOb.CO), opens new tab.

Compounded products are not reviewed for quality or efficacy by the FDA, unlike branded drugs. States also have authority over compounding.

ANALYSTS EXPECT FDA APPROVALAnalysts, legal experts and investors said they expect the committee to vote for looser regulations on compounding given the support from Kennedy and other industry-aligned members, even as FDA staffers in June challenged the evidence for peptide compounding.

The 14-member committee reviewing peptides has added seven people who operate or ​work for clinics or businesses selling peptide ​treatments.

Bill Holtz, a lawyer at Foley & Lardner, ⁠said Kennedy’s view will likely hold more weight in the review process for peptides than is typical for the agency under prior administrations.

“The law gives the Secretary of Health and Human Services the authority to determine what goes on that list," said ​Holtz.

A spokesperson for HHS did not respond to a Reuters request for comment.

The Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding, a trade organization, ​urged the FDA this month ⁠to allow compounding with regulatory oversight.

Kennedy, who has said he has used peptides, in April described a black market of unregulated products that still make their way into the United States.

PhRMA, the pharmaceutical industry trade organization, said in written comments to the FDA that the agency should not allow peptide compounding under Section 503A of the Federal Food, Drug, and ⁠Cosmetic Act, ​which allows for such combinations.

Ignacio Canto, founder of X-Square Capital, which owns less than 1% of Hims & ​Hers, said he expects Hims to launch the products quickly if it gets the go-ahead.

Options traders expect more volatility in Hims stock in coming weeks, with Trade Alert data showing shares could swing by as ​much as 14% in either direction by the end of the month.

LivePerson Sends Letter to Stockholders Highlighting Benefits of Pending Transaction with SoundHound AI
SOUN SoundHound AI
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Provides Opportunity to Participate in Upside of a Combined Company with a Strong Balance Sheet, Greater Scale and Broader Strategic Capabilities

Stockholders Encouraged to Vote "FOR" the Transaction Today 

Visit VoteLivePerson.com for Information on How to Vote

, /PRNewswire/ -- LivePerson (NASDAQ: LPSN) ("LivePerson" or "the Company"), a leading provider of predictable conversational AI, today announced that it has mailed a letter to stockholders encouraging them to vote "FOR" the Company's previously announced transaction with SoundHound AI, Inc. (NASDAQ: SOUN). A Special Meeting of Stockholders related to the pending transaction will be held on August 20, 2026, and stockholders of record as of close of business on July 6, 2026 are entitled to vote.

The letter, the full text of which is below, has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and is available at www.VoteLivePerson.com with voting instructions and other information about the transaction.

Fellow Stockholder,

We are writing to remind you about the proposed acquisition of LivePerson by SoundHound AI and the upcoming special meeting to be held on August 20, 2026.

By voting FOR the transaction, LivePerson stockholders have the opportunity to participate in the upside of a combined company with a strong balance sheet and no debt, greater scale and broader strategic capabilities.

Your vote and participation, however many shares you own, are very important. A share that is not voted counts the same as a vote against the transaction. Your prompt response will help us secure stockholder approval before the meeting, reducing the risk of postponement.

The Pending Transaction is the Best Strategic Alternative for LivePerson Stockholders

The LivePerson Board of Directors undertook a comprehensive review of alternatives in which 66 potential counterparties were contacted. The Board determined that the transaction with SoundHound represents the best alternative for maximizing stockholder value, including when compared to continuing as a standalone company given the business, financial, competitive, industry and market risks facing LivePerson.

A vote FOR the transaction is a vote in favor of the following benefits to LivePerson stockholders:

Represents Premium Value for LivePerson Stockholders: Based on the assumptions described in the proxy statement/prospectus, most LivePerson stockholders will receive SoundHound stock, which as of the announcement of the transaction on April 21, 2026, represented approximately $3.33 in value per LivePerson share, a premium of approximately 22% over LivePerson's 30-day volume-weighted average trading price before such announcement. Stockholders holding shares listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange are expected to receive the equivalent value in cash instead of SoundHound shares. Presents Opportunity to Participate in Future Upside: LivePerson stockholders receiving consideration in the form of SoundHound stock would become stockholders of a combined company with a strong balance sheet with no debt and accelerated path to profitability. SoundHound has stated that, assuming the transaction closes in the second half of 2026, it expects an achievable combined revenue range of at minimum $350 to $400 million in 2027, and that the combined business is expected to reach $500 million based on the existing customer base alone. Creates a More Complete Platform with Greater Scale: The transaction would unite complementary capabilities across voice, digital engagement, agentic AI and AI assurance. The combined customer base includes 25 of the Fortune 100, creating one of the conversational AI sector's most comprehensive enterprise customer footprints and significant opportunities to introduce additional capabilities across the companies' existing customer bases. A negotiated resolution to LivePerson's debt. LivePerson's outstanding debt currently exceeds the total value of the transaction. As part of the transaction, our secured noteholders have agreed to exchange their notes at a value reflecting a substantial discount to the notes' approximately $350 million par value.  Given LivePerson's valuation and substantial debt, no strategic transaction that allows LivePerson stockholders to receive any value for their shares may have been possible without such material noteholder concessions. Voting Takes About Two Minutes

It is imperative that you take just two minutes to vote FOR the transaction today using one of the following methods. For more information and additional materials visit www.VoteLivePerson.com.

Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this communication, including: (1) the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstance that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement between LivePerson and SoundHound; (2) the possibility that the transaction does not close when expected or at all due to the failure to satisfy all of the conditions to closing on a timely basis or at all, including the failure to obtain the required shareholder approvals or to consummate the notes restructuring transactions contemplated by the Notes Restructuring Agreement; (3) the risk that the benefits from the transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected, including as a result of changes in, or problems arising from, general economic and market conditions, interest and exchange rates, monetary policy, trade policy (including tariff levels), laws and regulations and their enforcement, and the degree of competition in the geographic and business areas in which LivePerson and SoundHound operate; (4) any failure to promptly and effectively integrate the businesses of LivePerson and SoundHound; (5) the possibility that the transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (6) reputational risk and potential adverse reactions of LivePerson's or SoundHound's customers, employees or other business partners, including those resulting from the announcement, pendency or completion of the transaction; (7) the diversion of management's attention and time to the transaction from ongoing business operations and opportunities; and (8) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against LivePerson or SoundHound or in connection with the transaction. Further information on factors that could affect the forward-looking statements and expectations above are contained in the filings that LivePerson and/or SoundHound AI have filed, or that will be filed, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including as set forth in the Form S-4 and the proxy statement/prospectus contained therein, as well as the documents incorporated by reference therein.

IBM zveřejnila výsledky za 2Q, snížila výhled růstu tržeb pro celý rok
IBM IBM
FIO Stock News
Original source text
23.7.2026 14:23, IBM

IT společnost IBM zveřejnila hospodářské výsledky za druhé čtvrtletí roku 2026 a snížila celoroční výhled růstu tržeb v konstantních měnách na 4 až 5 % z dříve očekávaného růstu nad 5 %. Report byl podle analytiků lepší, než se obávalo, poté co předběžné výsledky minulý týden vyvolaly historický propad akcií.

Výsledky společnosti IBM (IBM) za 2Q 2026   2Q 2026 Konsensus 2Q 2026 2Q 2025 Výnosy (mld. USD) 17,16 17,53 16,98 Čistý zisk (mld. USD) 2,17 -- 2,19 Očištěný provozní zisk na akcii (EPS, USD/akcie) 2,93 2,97 2,80 Výsledky za 2Q IBM představila předběžné výsledky za 2Q již 14. července. 

Výnosy dosáhly 17,16 mld. USD, meziročně +1 %.

Výnosy ze softwarového segmentu činily 7,76 mld. USD, meziročně +5,1 %, pod odhadem 7,99 mld. USD. Výnosy z konzultačního segmentu dosáhly 5,33 mld. USD, meziročně +0,2 %, pod odhadem 5,39 mld. USD. Výnosy z infrastrukturního segmentu klesly o 7,4 % na 3,84 mld. USD, pod odhadem 3,96 mld. USD. Výnosy z financování vzrostly o 12 % na 186 mil. USD, nad odhadem 178,6 mil. USD.

Očištěná hrubá marže dosáhla 59,4 % oproti loňským 60,1 %.

Volný hotovostní tok klesl meziročně o 11 % na 2,54 mld. USD, pod odhadem 2,95 mld. USD.

Výhled na FY 2026 Firma snížila výhled pro celý rok 2026 a nyní predikuje:

Růst tržeb v konstantních měnách 4 % až 5 % (dříve: nad 5 %). Společnost zároveň nadále očekává meziroční nárůst celoročního volného hotovostního toku o přibližně 1 mld. USD a nově počítá se zlepšenou expanzí marže zisku před zdaněním pro celý rok.

Komentář vedení Arvind Krishna, předseda představenstva, prezident a generální ředitel IBM, uvedl: „Věříme ve strategii a portfolio IBM i v naši schopnost využít budoucí růstové příležitosti. Jsme přesvědčeni, že se nacházíme v raných fázích strukturální proměny byznysu a že naše portfolio napříč softwarem, infrastrukturou a konzultacemi je dobře pozicováno k tomu, aby pomohlo klientům využít hodnotu a zvládnout výzvy budoucnosti tažené AI. Zároveň podnikáme kroky ke zrychlení růstu tržeb a ziskovosti a významně investujeme do komerčního využití inovací.“

James Kavanaugh, finanční ředitel IBM, dodal: „Přestože jsme na konci druhého čtvrtletí čelili protivětru u tržeb, nadále jsme se soustředili na fundamenty našeho byznysu, včetně růstu produktivity, posilování portfolia a generování volného hotovostního toku.“

Společnost dále uvedla, že v příštích pěti letech investuje přes 10 mld. USD do kvantových počítačů a zůstává na dobré cestě dodat první rozsáhlý odolný kvantový počítač do roku 2029. IBM rovněž zrychluje změny svého obchodního modelu rozšířením prodejního pokrytí o tisíce dalších klientů s významným růstovým potenciálem.

Návrat kapitálu akcionářům Společnost za čtvrtletí vrátila akcionářům 1,6 mld. USD formou dividend.

Komentáře analytiků Analytici z Evercore ISI (doporučení outperform, cílová cena 250 USD) uvedli, že výsledky odpovídají negativnímu předběžnému oznámení IBM, avšak výhled je výrazně lepší, než se obávalo.

Analytici z RBC Capital Markets (doporučení outperform, cílová cena 270 USD) uvedli, že po zklamáních z předběžných výsledků vedení vyjádřilo důvěru ve svou strategii a portfolio, což se odrazilo v zachovaném výhledu volného hotovostního toku pro fiskální rok 2026. Report označili za lepší, než se obávalo.

Redwire Stock Is Down 42% Over the Last Year. Trading Under $10, Is Now the Time to Buy the Stock?
RDW Redwire
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Space Exploration Technologies brought excitement to the space sector ahead of its initial public offering (IPO). But when the hype wore off, some space stocks fell back down to Earth.

Since SpaceX began trading to the public on June 12, the stock price of space and defense tech company Redwire (RDW -4.83%) plummeted 43% from July 12 to July 20. It's still up more than 20% in 2026, but over the last year, shares have dropped over 42%.

There's a bullish case that any significant pullbacks, like the one we've seen since June, could be a buying opportunity. Still, there are a few issues to factor in before making an investment decision.

Image source: Getty Images.

The upside of Redwire Redwire helps make space missions possible through its antennas, power generation, trackers, and camera systems. That helps give its products an essential nature in the space industry. But its most unique operations are in providing space-based research and manufacturing capabilities for endeavors ranging from regenerative medicine to crop production.

Its revenue in its space division is flat, but it's making up for that by capturing increasing sales through its defense segment.

Q1 2025 Revenue

Q1 2026 Revenue

Defense: $9.3 million

Defense: $44.3 million

Space: $52.1 million

Space: $52.7 million

Data source: Redwire Q1 2026 Investor Presentation

In the first quarter of 2026, Redwire also reported a record backlog of nearly $500 million, indicating increasing demand for its products and services. That appears to be reflected in Redwire's 2026 full-year revenue forecast; it reported around $335 million in revenue in 2025 and expects 2026's total to fall in a range of $450 million to $500 million.

What keeps weighing on the stock Redwire experienced a sell-off after SpaceX went public, but issues had been brewing before then. One was shareholders worried about dilution when Redwire announced in June that it was selling up to $500 million in common stock.

Another concern is growing losses. For 2025, Redwire reported net losses increased by $112.2 million to $226.6 million, and it already reported a net loss of $76.5 million in the first quarter of 2026.

In addition, while its backlog is a proof point of growing demand, Redwire still needs to convert that backlog into actual revenue. If it can't start chipping away at the backlog, it would likely have to keep issuing new stock if it finds itself in a tight financial position. At the end of the first quarter of 2026, Redwire reported total liquidity of $175.2 million.

Redwire shows some long-term promise, but I'd still be comfortable sitting on the sidelines until it cuts down on its losses and starts turning more of that backlog into revenue.

USA Rare Earth Enters Definitive Agreements for Strategic Investment in Carester, Strengthening its European Rare Earth Partnership
USAR USA Rare Earth
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Formalizes the Strategic Investment and Commercial Framework Between the Companies Announced in April 2026

Strengthens USA Rare Earth's Midstream Rare Earth Platform in Europe and the Integrated Industrial Ecosystem Forming in Lacq, France

Carester’s Caremag Facility to Commence Operations in Q4 2026

Provides LCM Europe and USA Rare Earth Access to Carester’s Rare Earth Oxides; Gives Carester Access to USA Rare Earth Feedstock from Serra Verde and Round Top

STILLWATER, Okla., July 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- USA Rare Earth, Inc. (Nasdaq: USAR) (the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into definitive agreements to acquire strategic minority stakes representing approximately 13.6 percent each in Carester SAS (“Carester”), a French leader in rare earth processing and separation. InfraVia, acting through its Critical Metals Fund, seeded by the French State as an anchor investor alongside private institutional capital, is acquiring a similar stake in Carester alongside USA Rare Earth.

The agreements finalize the strategic investment and commercial framework the parties announced in April 2026. In addition to targeting healthy returns, USA Rare Earth and its subsidiary Less Common Metals (“LCM”) Europe will have the ability to purchase a portion of Carester’s oxide output from its Caremag facility. USA Rare Earth will have access to Carester’s engineering capabilities and related intellectual property for separation, processing, and recycling. In turn, Carester will have access to USA Rare Earth feedstock sources, including Serra Verde and the Round Top deposit in Texas.

"Integrating Carester’s capabilities into our global platform brings additional advanced processing optionality into our integrated value chain, further supporting our mining, metal making and magnet manufacturing businesses," said Barbara Humpton, Chief Executive Officer of USA Rare Earth. "This is also a highly strategic financial investment, as Carester’s position as one of the few facilities outside of China capable of separating heavy rare earths beginning in 2027 can provide a distinct competitive advantage. We anticipate that this scarcity, coupled with accelerating demand for secure critical materials, can drive sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders."

Founded in 2019, Carester is a French specialist in rare earth processing and separation technologies, with decades of technical expertise across the value chain from raw material sourcing through high-purity rare earth oxides. Carester is currently building its Caremag magnet recycling and heavy rare earth separation facility in Lacq, France, scheduled for commissioning in late 2026 with an anticipated annual production when fully ramped of 800 tonnes per annum (tpa) of neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr) oxide, 500 tpa of dysprosium (Dy) oxide and 100 tpa of terbium (Tb) oxide. The facility’s Dy and Tb oxide production is expected to represent approximately 15% of current world production of these magnetic heavy rare earth oxides.

Proceeds will primarily fund Carester’s next phase of growth, including expansion of its rare earth processing and separation platform (Caremag), research and development, and working capital. As a condition to completion of the strategic investment, a portion of the joint investment will fund the acquisition of minority shareholders’ interest, resulting in their full exit. Funding is expected in the third quarter of 2026, subject to remaining customary conditions.

The investment is part of a broader partnership between USA Rare Earth, LCM Europe, and Carester to build an integrated rare earth industrial platform in Lacq, France, spanning processing, separation, metal and alloy production, and potentially magnet manufacturing. In parallel, USA Rare Earth, through LCM Europe, is developing a 3,750 mtpa metal and alloy production facility at the same location. Together, these projects are intended to form one of Europe’s most complete rare earth industrial ecosystems and to advance a secure, Western-aligned value chain across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe.

The Lacq platform builds on the French government’s previously announced support for the LCM Europe metallization and alloy project, including direct credits under the C3IV program of up to 45 percent of eligible equipment and real estate, up to €130 million, and Bpifrance Assurance Export’s readiness to consider a state guarantee (Garantie des Projets Stratégiques) covering 50 percent of commercial debt financing for project capital expenditures.

Finally, and in recognition of our evolution into a commercial and private banking powerhouse, we recently completed our re-brand to “Dime Commercial Bank”.”

Management’s Discussion of Quarterly Operating Results

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2026 was $115.2 million compared to $112.3 million for the first quarter of 2026 and $98.1 million for the second quarter of 2025. The Net Interest Margin for the second quarter of 2026 was 3.28% compared to 3.21% for the first quarter of 2026 and 2.98% for the second quarter of 2025.

Mr. Lubow commented, “We continue to have a significant loan repricing opportunity that we anticipate will continue through 2027. Additionally, growth in core deposits and business loans will benefit us over time as we continue to grow our customer base. Our substantial liquidity position, which includes $1.9 billion of cash, provides us with the flexibility to take advantage of lending opportunities as they arise. Dime’s asset liability management profile, which is underpinned by our cash position and a growing floating rate loan portfolio, positions us well for a variety of interest rate scenarios.”

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION
(Dollars in thousands except per share amounts)

The following tables below provide a reconciliation of certain financial measures calculated under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") (as reported) and non-GAAP measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are required to be disclosed in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the United States. The Company’s management believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with a greater understanding of the Company’s operating results in addition to the results measured in accordance with GAAP. While management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance, this information should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP or considered to be more important than financial results determined in accordance with GAAP.

The following non-GAAP financial measures exclude pre-tax income and expenses associated with the fair value change in equity securities and loans held for sale, loss (gain) on sale of securities, loans and other assets, severance, net loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt and loss due to pension settlement.

Trh čeká tři zvýšení sazeb. Podle Kubíčka je takový scénář přehnaný Patria Stock News
Original source text
Česká národní banka by mohla podle Jana Kubíčka v nadcházejících měsících ještě jednou zvýšit úrokové sazby. Člen bankovní rady uvedl, že o této možnosti budou centrální bankéři pravděpodobně diskutovat už v srpnu. Důvod ke spěchu však zatím nevidí a tržní sázky na rychlý růst sazeb považuje za přehnané.

ČNB v červnu zvýšila svou hlavní repo sazbu o 25 bazických bodů. Šlo o první zpřísnění měnové politiky za poslední čtyři roky.

Kubíček uvedl, že při hodnocení potřeby dalšího růstu sazeb sleduje především vývoj úvěrů, jádrové inflace, růstu mezd, cen nemovitostí a také to, do jaké míry se vyšší dlouhodobé tržní sazby promítají do úroků z úvěrů.

Trh aktuálně prostřednictvím FRA kontraktů zaceňuje tři zvýšení sazeb o 25 bazických bodů do prvního čtvrtletí příštího roku. FRA kontrakty slouží k zajištění budoucích úrokových sazeb a běžně se využívají jako indikátor očekávání trhu ohledně dalšího vývoje měnové politiky. 

Takový výhled označil Kubíček za přehnaný. Zároveň však dodal, že by ho uklidnilo zpomalení růstu mezd a jádrové inflace. „Uklidnilo by mě také, kdybychom viděli zpomalování jádrové inflace. Čekáme na to už delší dobu a stále v to věříme. Velmi by mi pomohlo i to, kdybychom alespoň viděli konec zrychlování všech typů úvěrů,“ řekl Kubíček.

Podle něj zároveň existují známky toho, že růst cen nemovitostí začíná kulminovat. Také růst mezd by měl zpomalit po překvapivě silném meziročním nárůstu o 8,1 % v prvním čtvrtletí.

Banky byly podle něj dosud pod konkurenčním tlakem, který jim bránil plně promítat vyšší dlouhodobé sazby do hypotečních úvěrů. To se však nyní může začínat měnit.

Dalším faktorem, který ČNB sleduje, je vývoj firemních marží. Banka zkoumá, zda podniky nevyužívají vyšších nákladů k navyšování ziskovosti. Data za první čtvrtletí však podle Kubíčka nic takového nenaznačují.

Celková meziroční inflace v Česku v červnu překvapivě klesla na 1,5 %, především díky vývoji cen potravin. Ceny služeb, které ČNB pečlivě sleduje, však nadále rostly svižným tempem 4,5 %. Jádrová inflace činila 2,8 %.

Kubíček zároveň uvedl, že neočekává, že by nová prognóza ČNB, která bude zveřejněna příští měsíc, přinesla výrazně odlišný pohled na ekonomiku oproti květnové prognóze. Podle něj by byla centrální banka spokojena, pokud inflace na začátku příštího roku nepřekročí horní hranici tolerančního pásma, tedy 3 % kolem dvouprocentního inflačního cíle.

Silná náladovost trhu

Vývoj tržních očekávání zároveň ukazuje, jak obtížné je dnes odhadovat další kroky centrálních bank. To platí nejen pro ČNB, ale také pro americký Fed, jehož budoucí rozhodování investoři v posledních týdnech výrazně přehodnocují.

Podle dat společnosti CME Group aktuálně trh přisuzuje přibližně 34% pravděpodobnost zvýšení sazeb na červencovém zasedání Fedu. Před týdnem přitom tato pravděpodobnost činila pouze 12 %, zatímco na konci června dosahovala 36 %. Jen 14. července se očekávání trhu změnila o 14 procentních bodů během jediného dne.

— Hedgeye (@Hedgeye) July 22, 2026 Významnou roli v těchto změnách hraje nejistota spojená s vývojem cen ropy a dopady konfliktu na Blízkém východě. Dražší energie tlačí vzhůru inflační očekávání, výnosy dluhopisů i náklady domácností, což následně ovlivňuje očekávanou trajektorii úrokových sazeb.

Pro investory je tak aktuálně mimořádně obtížné odhadovat další kroky centrálních bank. Geopolitické události i obtížně předvídatelné kroky americké administrativy mohou tržní očekávání měnit doslova ze dne na den. Současné prostředí proto ukazuje, že investoři by se měli více soustředit na příchozí ekonomická data než na krátkodobé výkyvy tržních sázek.
