CEO COMMENTARY

Commenting on the Bank's second quarter 2026 performance, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph M. Otting stated, "Flagstar's second quarter operating performance reflects our third consecutive quarter of profitability and improved earnings and represents continued progress on our path to transforming into a top-performing regional bank. During the quarter, we made considerable strides diversifying our balance sheet, reaching an important inflection point in asset growth, as total assets increased 3% on an annualized basis compared to the first quarter, driven by overall growth in our loan portfolio.

"Total loans increased 4% annualized, driven by record C&I loan production, which more than offset the continued strategic reduction in the commercial real estate portfolio. This marks the first quarter of loan growth since the fourth quarter of 2023. C&I originations in the second quarter totaled $2.8 billion, while commitments were $4.2 billion. This drove a $2.0 billion or 12% increase in C&I loans to $18.6 billion compared to the previous quarter.

"We also generated net deposit growth of $689 million, all of which was driven by core deposits. More importantly, $706 million of this quarter's deposit growth was C&I lending-related, as we have broadened our customer relationships in that key business.

"The net interest margin was relatively consistent with the prior quarter, while we reduced our cost of deposits by five basis points and our overall cost of funds by seven basis points. Additionally, we continued to pay down our wholesale borrowings, further strengthening our funding base.

"Also contributing to our improved operating performance was our continued focus on expense management, as operating expenses declined 3%, driving positive operating leverage of 7%.

"Our credit quality trends remained relatively stable during the quarter. While we did see a modest increase in total non-accrual loans, the overall level of criticized and classified loans decreased, driven mainly by a 6% decline in substandard loans.

"Importantly, we continue to maintain a strong capital position, with a CET1 capital ratio of 13.16% at the end of the quarter. This level of capital provides meaningful financial flexibility to support balance sheet growth, invest in our franchise, and return capital to shareholders over time. On that note, this morning we also announced the adoption of a $250 million share repurchase program. This reflects the tremendous progress we have made in executing on our strategic plan, the strength of our capital position and the positive long-term outlook for the Bank. We believe that returning capital to our shareholders through a stock buyback represents a compelling and disciplined use of our excess capital at this time.

"Overall, we believe the progress we have made over the past several quarters demonstrates the effectiveness of our strategy and positions the Bank well to deliver sustainable long-term shareholder value."

Linked-Quarter Comparison

Total assets increased $0.6 billion or 1% to $87.7 billion driven by loan growth and an increase in securities, partially offset by a decline in cash balances. Total loans and leases held for investment ("HFI") were $61.0 billion, up $0.6 billion or 1% (up 4% annualized); driven by solid growth in the C&I portfolio, partially offset by a decline in the multi-family and CRE portfolios as a result of our continued strategy of diversifying the loan portfolio. During the second quarter, we delivered broad-based loan growth across our C&I platform, while our CRE portfolio declined as part of our ongoing strategic balance sheet de-risking efforts. Total C&I loans increased $2.0 billion or 12% to $18.6 billion driven primarily by growth within Specialized Industries and Corporate & Regional Commercial Banking. Specialized Industries Banking loans increased $1,675 million or 34%. Corporate & Regional Commercial Banking increased $375 million or 18%. The CRE portfolio continued to decline with the combined multi-family and CRE portfolios declining $1.5 billion or 4% to $35.2 billion. Total CRE par payoffs totaled $1.1 billion, unchanged compared to first quarter. CRE concentration improved to 350% compared to 367%. Total deposits were $67.5 billion, up $0.7 billion or 1%, driven by increases in interest-bearing checking and money market accounts, which increased 6%, while all other categories each declined 1%. Total borrowed funds declined $0.2 billion or 2% to $10.9 billion. Wholesale borrowings, consisting of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLB-NY") advances accounted for all of this decline and totaled $9.9 billion, down $250 million or 2%. EARNINGS SUMMARY FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026

Net Interest Income, Net Interest Margin, and Average Balance Sheet

Net Interest Income

Second quarter 2026 net interest income totaled $440 million compared to $443 million, down $3 million or 1% compared to first quarter 2026 but rose $21 million or 5% compared to second quarter 2025.

For the first six months of 2026, net interest income increased $54 million or 7% to $0.9 billion compared to $0.8 billion for the first six months of 2025.

Linked-Quarter Comparison

Average interest-earnings assets decreased $0.3 billion or 0.3% to $83.1 billion as a result of lower average cash balances, partially offset by growth in average loans and average securities. Average interest-bearing liabilities declined $0.1 billion or 0.2% to $65.4 billion, average borrowed funds declined 10% partially offset by a 2% increase in average interest-bearing deposits. The net interest margin decreased 2 basis points to 2.13% due to a lower average cost of funds, more than offset by a lower average asset yield. Excluding the impact from the extra day in the quarter, the net interest margin would have been 2.16%. Year-Over-Year Comparison

Average interest-earning assets decreased 11% to $83.1 billion, driven by lower average cash balances due to balance sheet deleveraging. Average loans and average cash balances both declined, offset by growth in the investment securities portfolio. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 12% or $8.8 billion to $65.4 billion with average deposits declining 8% to $55.2 billion as the Bank significantly reduced brokered deposits throughout 2025. Average borrowings declined 27% or $3.8 billion to $10.3 billion as the Bank continued to pay down wholesale borrowings. The net interest margin increased 32 basis points driven by a lower cost of deposits and borrowings, partially offset by lower earning asset yields. Year-to-Date Comparison

Average interest-earning assets declined $11.1 billion or 12% to $83.2 billion primarily due to lower average loan balances, down 9%, as we reduced CRE loans and lower average cash balances, down 60%, due to balance sheet deleveraging, partially offset by a 20% increase in average securities balances. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $9.7 billion or 13% to $65.5 billion due to reduction in average borrowings, down 24%, and a 10% decrease in average deposits, as we reduced higher cost funding, including brokered CDs and wholesale borrowings. The net interest margin increased 37 basis points to 2.14% due to a 65 basis point improvement in the average cost of funds. Provision for Credit Losses

Linked-Quarter Comparison

For the second quarter 2026, we reported a provision for credit losses of $18 million compared to no provision in first quarter 2026. The increase was primarily driven by growth in the C&I portfolio, higher charge-offs and updates to assumptions related to recent New York City rent-regulated multi-family developments, partially offset by strategic reductions in the multi-family and CRE portfolios. Net charge-offs for the second quarter 2026 totaled $100 million, up $22 million or 28%. Net charge-offs on an annualized basis represented 0.66% of average loans outstanding, compared to 0.52% for first quarter 2026. Year-Over-Year Comparison

The provision for credit losses decreased $46 million or 72% primarily due to the continued decline in multi-family and CRE loan balances. Net charge-offs declined $17 million or 15%. Year-to-Date Comparison

For the first six months of 2026, the provision for credit losses totaled $18 million compared to $143 million for the first six months of 2025, down $125 million or 87%.  The decrease was primarily due to strategic reductions in the multi-family and CRE portfolios and lower net charge-offs. Net charge-offs totaled $178 million compared to $232 million. Net charge-offs represented 0.59% of average loans outstanding compared to 0.70%. Pre-Provision Net Revenue

Linked-Quarter Comparison

Excluding the impact from the Figure Investment in both quarters would have resulted in a PPNR of $62 million compared to $41 million up 51%. Majority of the increase was due to a decline in non-interest expenses, down 3%. Year-Over-Year Comparison

Second quarter 2026 PPNR increased $83 million compared to a pre-provision net loss of $17 million in the year-ago quarter. Excluding the impact from the Figure Investment and several other one-time items in the year ago quarter, adjusted PPNR was $62 million compared to $9 million in the year-ago quarter. Majority of the increase was due to lower non-interest expense and higher net interest income.

Non-interest income in second quarter 2026 was $76 million, up $21 million or 38% compared to $55 million in first quarter 2026 and down $1 million or 1% compared to second quarter 2025.

Linked-Quarter Comparison

Second quarter 2026 adjusted non-interest income increased $8 million or 13%, excluding the impact from the Figure Investment. Quarter-over-quarter improvement was driven by increases in fee income, driven by increased treasury management and capital markets income, BOLI, and other income. Year-Over-Year Comparison

Second quarter 2026 adjusted non-interest income declined $5 million or 6%, excluding the impact from the Figure Investment. The year-over-year decline was a result of lower net gain on loan sales income and other income. This was due to the sale of the Bank's mortgage servicing and third-party origination business, offset by higher levels of fee income and BOLI.

This earnings release and the associated conference call may include forward‐looking statements by us and our authorized officers pertaining to such matters as our goals, beliefs, intentions, and expectations regarding, among other things: (a) revenues, earnings, loan production, asset quality, liquidity position, capital levels, risk analysis, divestitures, acquisitions, and other material transactions, among other matters; (b) the future costs and benefits of the actions we may take; (c) our assessments of credit risk and probable losses on loans and associated allowances and reserves; (d) our assessments of interest rate and other market risks; (e) our ability to achieve profitability goals within projected timeframes and to execute on our strategic plan, including the sufficiency of our internal resources, procedures and systems; (f) our ability to execute our capital management strategies, including our ability to complete our current stock repurchase program and to implement future stock repurchase programs; (g) our ability to attract, incentivize, and retain key personnel and the roles of key personnel; (h) our ability to achieve our financial and other strategic goals, including those related to our recent holding company reorganization, which was completed in October 2025 (the "Reorganization"), our merger with Flagstar Bancorp, Inc., which was completed in December 2022, our acquisition of substantial portions of the former Signature Bank through an FDIC-assisted transaction, which was completed in March 2023, and our ability to comply with the heightened regulatory standards with respect to governance and risk management programs to which we are subject as a national bank with assets of $50 billion or more; (i) the impact of the $1.05 billion capital raise we completed in March 2024; (j) the conversion or exchange of shares of our preferred stock; (k) the payment of dividends on shares of our capital stock, including adjustments to the amount of dividends payable on shares of our preferred stock; (l) the dilution of existing equity holders associated with future equity awards and stock issuances; (m) the effects of the reverse stock split we effected in July 2024; and (n) the impact of the 2024 sale of our mortgage servicing operations, third party mortgage loan origination business, and mortgage warehouse business.

Forward‐looking statements are typically identified by such words as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "outlook," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "should," "confident," and other similar words and expressions, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which change over time. Additionally, forward‐looking statements speak only as of the date they are made; we do not assume any duty, and do not undertake, to update our forward‐looking statements. Furthermore, because forward‐looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in our statements, and our future performance could differ materially from our historical results.

Our forward‐looking statements are subject to, among others, the following principal risks and uncertainties: general economic conditions and trends, either nationally or locally; conditions in the securities, credit and financial markets; changes in interest rates; changes in deposit flows, and in the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other financial services; changes in real estate values; changes in the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios, including associated allowances and reserves; changes in future allowance for credit losses, including changes required under relevant accounting and regulatory requirements; the ability to pay future dividends; the ability to implement future stock repurchase programs, which are subject to the approval of the Board of Directors and other various factors, including the Bank's liquidity, capital position, and financial performance, accounting, and regulatory considerations as well as general market conditions; changes in our capital management and balance sheet strategies and our ability to successfully implement such strategies; our ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Reorganization; changes in our Board of Directors and our executive management team; changes in our strategic plan, including changes in our internal resources, procedures and systems, and our ability to successfully implement such plan; changes in competitive pressures among financial institutions or from non‐financial institutions; changes in legislation, regulations, and policies; changes relating to rent regulation and housing, including recent legislative action in New York City to freeze rents on certain rent-regulated properties; the impacts of tariffs, sanctions and other trade policies of the United States and its global trading counterparts; the outcome of federal, state, and local elections and the resulting economic and other impact on the areas in which we conduct business; the impact of changing political conditions or federal government shutdowns; the imposition of restrictions on our operations by bank regulators; the outcome of pending or threatened litigation, or of investigations or any other matters before regulatory agencies, whether currently existing or commencing in the future; our ability to comply with heightened regulatory standards with respect to governance and risk management programs to which we are subject as a national bank with assets of $50 billion or more; the restructuring of our mortgage business; our ability to achieve anticipated cost savings and enhanced efficiencies with respect to our balance sheet and expense reduction strategies; the impact of failures or disruptions in or breaches of our operational or security systems, data or infrastructure, or those of third parties, including as a result of cyberattacks or campaigns; the impact of natural disasters, extreme weather events, civil unrest, international military conflict, terrorism or other geopolitical events; and a variety of other matters which, by their nature, are subject to significant uncertainties and/or are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements are also subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties with respect to our merger with Flagstar Bancorp, which was completed in December 2022, and our acquisition of substantial portions of the former Signature Bank through an FDIC-assisted transaction, which was completed in March 2023: the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the transactions will not be realized when expected or at all; the possibility of increased legal and compliance costs, including with respect to any litigation or regulatory actions related to the business practices of acquired companies or the combined business; diversion of management's attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; the possibility that we may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in or as a result of the transactions within the expected timeframes or at all; and revenues following the transactions may be lower than expected.

More information regarding some of these factors is provided in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in other reports we file with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC") and voluntarily file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and which are also available on our Investor Relations website. Our forward‐looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those we may discuss in this news release, on our conference call, during investor presentations, or in our securities disclosure filings. All such files are accessible on our website at ir.flagstar.com, on the OCC's website at www.occ.gov, and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

FLAGSTAR BANK, N.A.
RECONCILIATIONS OF CERTAIN GAAP AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to GAAP measures, management considers various non-GAAP measures when evaluating the performance of the business. 

We believe that non-interest income, operating expenses, pre-provision net (loss) revenue (which includes both non-interest income and non-interest expense), net income (loss), net income (loss) attributed to common stockholders, diluted earnings (loss) per share, the net interest margin, and our efficiency ratio as adjusted for items that we believe are not indicative of core operating results, such as but not limited to merger and restructuring expenses, litigation settlement expenses related to cases prior to the acquisition of Flagstar Bank, NA, fair value adjustments on non-core equity investments, as well as adjustments for severance and impairment charges and other exit costs resulting from strategic shifts in our operations provide valuable insights to investors by highlighting our underlying performance.  These non-GAAP metrics also facilitate meaningful comparisons to other financial institutions, as they are widely used and frequently referenced by investors and analysts.

We believe average tangible common stockholders' equity, tangible common stockholders' equity, average tangible assets and tangible book value per share are important measures for evaluating the performance of the business without the impact of our intangible assets.  These non-GAAP metrics also provide investors with important indications regarding our ability to grow the business, our ability to pay dividends as well as engage in capital strategies in addition to facilitating meaningful comparisons to other financial institutions, as they are widely used and frequently referenced by investors and analysts.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.  Moreover, the way we calculate these non-GAAP measures may differ from that of other companies reporting non-GAAP measures with similar names. The following tables reconcile the above the non-GAAP financial measures we use to their comparable GAAP financial measures, to the extent not reconciled earlier in this earnings release, for the stated periods:

To calculate return on average assets for a period, we divide net income, or non-GAAP net income, generated during that period by average assets recorded during that period. To calculate return on average tangible assets for a period, we divide net income by average tangible assets recorded during that period.

(2)

To calculate return on average common stockholders' equity for a period, we divide net income attributable to common stockholders, or non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders, generated during that period by average common stockholders' equity recorded during that period. To calculate return on average tangible common stockholders' equity for a period, we divide net income attributable to common stockholders generated during that period by average tangible common stockholders' equity recorded during that period.

July 24 (Reuters) - SLB (SLB.N), opens new tab beat expectations for second-quarter profit on Friday, as resilient demand across key markets ​helped the top U.S. oilfield services firm ride out weakness in the Middle ‌East due to the Iran war, sending its shares up 2% before the bell.

Frequent flare-ups in the war, now in its fifth month, have kept a crucial oil-producing region on edge, with Iran ​now seeking to shut the Bab el-Mandeb gateway to the Red Sea after ​choking off shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

The Middle East is ⁠SLB's biggest market, accounting for 34% of total revenue in 2025, and the company ​had warned of a 6 to 8 cents per share hit in the second quarter ​due to the disruptions.

Revenue from the Middle East and Asia dropped 14% to $2.57 billion during the quarter, driven by lower activity and operational disruptions associated with the conflict.

"While activity began to recover in ​certain countries during the second quarter, the timing of a full recovery remains uncertain ​and will depend on a durable resolution of the conflict," CEO Olivier Le Peuch said, adding ‌a return ⁠to full production capacity is expected to take time.

Still, total revenue during the quarter climbed to $8.97 billion, driven by a 36% jump in North America.

Growth in the region was supported by higher offshore activity, a rebound in U.S. shale oil and gas drilling ​activity, as well as ​strong demand for ⁠production and recovery solutions, the company said.

Earlier this week, rival Halliburton (HAL.N), opens new tab, which also beat expectations for quarterly profit, said activity in North ​America will continue to recover with more rigs being added and ​previously idle ⁠equipment put back to work.

The North American oil and gas rig count was 704 during the second quarter, compared with 699 during the same period a year earlier, according to ⁠a ​survey by Baker Hughes.

SLB posted an adjusted profit of ​55 cents per share for the three months ended June 30, compared with analysts' estimate of 51 cents, ​according to data compiled by LSEG.

$GTM Fraud Notification: ZoomInfo Sued for Fraud Over Misrepresentations about its AI Integration Issues – Investors Notified to Contact BFA Law
ZI ZoomInfo Technologies
FMP Stock News
Original source text
NEW YORK, July 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:GTM) and certain of the Company’s senior executives for securities fraud after its significant stock drop resulting from potential violations of the federal securities laws.

If you invested in ZoomInfo, you are encouraged to obtain additional information by visiting: https://www.bfalaw.com/cases/zoominfo-class-action-lawsuit.

Key Details of the ZoomInfo ($GTM) Class Action:

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 24, 2026Alleged Misconduct: Securities fraud alleging that ZoomInfo misled investors regarding the impact of ZoomInfo’s AI-integrated products on customer retentionStock Drop: May 12, 2026 – 33% Stock DropCourt: U.S. District Court for the Western District of WashingtonAction: Contact BFA Law to discuss your rights Investors have until August 24, 2026 to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts securities fraud claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors in ZoomInfo securities. The class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. It is captioned Tejeda v. ZoomInfo Technologies et al., No. 26-cv-05696.

Why is ZoomInfo Being Sued for Securities Fraud?

ZoomInfo has been sued for securities fraud following a significant stock drop resulting from potential violations of the federal securities laws. The decline in ZoomInfo’s stock price caused significant losses to investors.

ZoomInfo provides go-to-market (“GTM”) intelligence and a customer engagement platform for sales, marketing, operations, and recruiting professionals.

Throughout the relevant period, ZoomInfo allegedly stated that “the demand for AI for GTM is evident up and down our customer stack.” According to ZoomInfo, its “innovative go-to-market AI” was “driving stronger daily engagement from a diverse set of go-to-market personas.”

On February 9, 2026, ZoomInfo issued its 2026 revenue guidance “in the range of $1.247 billion to $1.267 billion,” because “in 2026, our focus is on bringing” ZoomInfo’s “all-in-one AI platform for go-to-market teams . . . to our customers at scale.”

In truth, as alleged, ZoomInfo’s customer retention declined as customers were rejecting ZoomInfo’s AI products.

Why did ZoomInfo’s Stock Drop?

On May 11, 2026, ZoomInfo announced its Q1 2026 results and slashed its 2026 revenue guidance from $1.247-$1.267 billion to $1.185-$1.205 billion. ZoomInfo revealed that its customer growth “regressed” due to “AI and agentic confusion” leading to “a pause in [customers’] purchasing decisions[.]”

This news caused the price of ZoomInfo stock to decline $1.98 per share, or 32.78%, from a closing price of $6.04 per share on May 11, 2026, to $4.06 per share on May 12, 2026.

At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +23.94% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through July 6, 2026. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations.

Toyota Made 6 Times More Profit Than Tesla Last Year. Tesla Stock Is Still Worth More Than the Next 37 Automakers Combined.

The math has never been kinder to legacy automakers, and it has never mattered less to Tesla’s stock. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA | TSLA Price Prediction) carried a market capitalization of $1.423 trillion as of July 21, 2026, per FactSet data cited by the Wall Street Journal. The combined market cap of the next 37 largest consumer vehicle and parts manufacturers on that same date was $1.415 trillion, a list that includes Toyota, BYD, Ferrari, General Motors, Ford, and Hyundai. Tesla alone is worth slightly more than all of them put together.

The Profit Gap Behind the Valuation Gap Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM) reported net income attributable to owners of the parent of $25.45 billion for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. Guidance for the current fiscal year points to roughly $23.8 billion, down about 25% year over year, largely attributed to U.S. tariff pressure. Tesla, by comparison, posted full-year 2025 GAAP net income of $3.8 billion and non-GAAP net income of $5.9 billion. Using Toyota’s guided fiscal figure against Tesla’s GAAP result produces the roughly 6.3x gap referenced in the headline. Toyota’s calendar-year 2025 net income of approximately $31.45 billion would push the ratio closer to 8x.

Toyota also absorbed a direct hit from trade policy. The company disclosed that U.S. tariffs negatively impacted FY2026 operating income by $8.81 billion, and its North America segment swung to an operating loss of $1.23 billion.

A Gap That Keeps Widening The “worth more than the competition combined” phenomenon is not new, but the scope has expanded. At the end of 2020, Tesla’s market cap was $0.669 trillion versus $0.663 trillion combined for just the next 7 largest automakers. Five years later, it takes 37 rivals to match Tesla’s market value.

Per-Vehicle Economics Are Converging As a separate data point, per-vehicle profitability tells its own story. Tesla’s profit per vehicle fell to about $2,140 in Q1 2026, down roughly 40% from $3,438 in the same period in 2025. Toyota’s profit per unit for the comparable period was reported at roughly $2,078, nearly matching Tesla’s.

Scale Still Belongs to the Incumbents Tesla’s full-year 2025 revenue was $94,827,000,000. Toyota’s FY2026 consolidated revenue was $323.62 billion, with $132.70 billion from North America alone. Tesla trades at a trailing P/E of 346; Toyota trades at 10.

What Investors Are Actually Pricing Tesla shares are down 28.91% year to date through July 23, 2026, following an earnings report in which non-GAAP EPS of $0.33 missed the $0.5367 estimate by 38.51% and operating margin compressed to 1.4%. Management framed the spending surge as a bridge to a different business, telling investors that “Over time, Tesla expects hardware-related profits to be accompanied by an acceleration of AI, software, and fleet-based profits.” That is the bet embedded in the market cap, priced against future earnings power rather than the current-year income statement.

Paramount bracing for ‘long game' as its $80B deal for Warner Bros. Discovery gets attacked in California
PARA Paramount Global
FMP Stock News
Original source text
David and Larry Ellison are used to playing the long game, and that’s exactly what their media giant Paramount Skydance is bracing for in its $80 billion pursuit of Warner Bros. Discovery, On The Money has learned.

The hurdle, of course, is the bombshell lawsuit from 12 state attorneys general just filed to block the mega-merger, and the recent decision by a federal judge in San Francisco to grant a temporary restraining order that was recently extended and prevents PSKY from closing the transaction at least for another month.

The next shoe to drop, people inside the Ellison camp tell me, is likely that the deal gets delayed indefinitely with the judge issuing a preliminary injunction. A lengthy trial could follow and PSKY could lose despite having good evidence that the tie-up doesn’t violate antitrust laws. That, in turn, has the Ellisons thinking about fighting this thing all the way to the Supreme Court.

Sources close to Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison says he is thinking about fighting this thing all the way to the Supreme Court. Jack Forbes / NY Post Design It won’t be pretty. Lots of mud thrown at the Ellisons by the Trump-hating AGs bringing the case. Shareholders of WBD could take another hit; its stock is already well below the deal price on the lawsuit and likely to fall further if the judge issues an injunction.

But it won’t be the first time the father-and-son duo has faced adversity – and won. The takeover of Paramount from the controlling Redstone family was anything but easy. They initially lost the long and contentious bidding war for Warner Bros. Discovery to Netflix, only to mount a come-from-behind victory by outbidding the streaming giant.

Their deal received the greenlight from the merger-friendly Trump administration, but the Ellisons knew a cabal of Dem AGs were waiting in the wings to scuttle their efforts, which means they and their savvy GC, Makan Delrahim, have been war-gaming this for some time.

“There’s no f–king way we give up,” said one person in the Paramount orbit. “The Ellisons don’t quit.”

To be clear, they believe the injunction is all but certain for several reasons, including the judge’s public statement when issuing the TRO, in which she cited an anticipated 27% market share of the wide-distribution theatrical release market. “On this combined firm market share alone, the Court is persuaded that it can presume the proposed merger is likely to violate antitrust laws,” she wrote.

It won’t be the first time the Ellisons has faced adversity – and won. The takeover of Paramount from the controlling Redstone family was anything but easy. Larry Ellison, above. Getty Images The other reason: The judge, Araceli Martinez-Olguin, is a liberal activist appointee of the notoriously merger-unfriendly Biden administration. Throw in the connection to Donald Trump, who is friends with Larry Ellison, and you can see why they’re preparing to play the long game.

So what does the “long game” actually mean? Well, if there is a preliminary injunction, you can’t close the deal until the trial is over. That would mean paying $650 million a quarter to satisfy a “ticking fee” arrangement the Ellisons agreed to as part of their deal.

They have the money, of course; Larry is worth $167 billion even with the recent slide in Oracle shares. They also have been lawyering up for a long legal battle, that LightShed partners analyst Rich Greenfield won’t be settled until sometime in 2027.

California Attorney Rob Bonta is leading the state AGs’ case against the Warer Bros. merger. REUTERS They could walk away, but Greenfield doubts they will, and his comments align with what On The Money is getting from inside Team Ellison. To walk away would mean paying a $7 billion breakup fee and leaving the Ellisons with their partners at RedBird Capital with a smallish media company, devoid of the scale that Warner brings in terms of cable properties, streaming and of course, a world-class studio that killed it in the past year.

That said, it’s this Biden judge who will likely rule on the deal’s alleged merits and she’s cut from the same leftist-activist cloth as the state AGs bringing the case led by the hyper-ambitious California AG Rob Bonta. One interesting layer is that the European Union–not exactly a bastion of unfettered markets– just approved the merger. That puts Bonta & Co to the left of some of the most leftist regulators on the planet.

It is Bonta who is trying to contort an antitrust case arguing that two separate companies that were already engaged in downsizing because of the wonky economics of big media will actually be stronger if they remain separate. Yes, that two weaker, smaller players will be better for jobs in Hollywood and provide competition that will lead to lower prices for  consumers. 

It’s an absurd argument, of course. Warner Bros.’ flailing pre-bidding war stock price signaled difficult days ahead and there’s never been more competition for consumer entertainment eyeballs given the likes of YouTube, not to mention streaming in general.

Facts like those, unfortunately, are beside the point in this California court. Like the judge in the case (who was confirmed by the Senate on a party-line vote because of her leftist politics) Bonta no doubt looks forward to spending the coming months concocting fluffy legal motions, and likely claiming that Donald Trump will be in control of the combined company’s footprint, which will include both CBS and CNN.

So expect the long game to drag well into next year – and a SCOTUS ruling to finally close this deal.

Chipotle Is Down 39% From Its 52-Week High. Should You Buy Before July 29?
CMG Chipotle Mexican Grill
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG -0.50%) stock has trended downward since 2024, and even when measured against its 52-week high, it is down by 39%. The fast-casual giant that became popular for its healthier food has fallen victim to shifting consumer preferences and the economic challenges facing its customers.

Now, investors await July 29, when the company will release its second-quarter results. But is the stock worth buying before the earnings release, or should investors remain on the sidelines until they get the latest numbers?

Image source: The Motley Fool.

The state of Chipotle today Shareholders have had little to celebrate about Chipotle's performance in recent quarters. 

In Q1, its comparable-store sales rose by just 0.5%. That's a stark contrast to Q1 2024, when comparable sales grew by 7%. Moreover, its operating margin in Q1 was 12.9%, down from 16.7% one year ago and 16.3% in Q1 2024, just before Chipotle underwent a 50-for-1 stock split.

That split closely coincided with the stock's all-time high. Since then, rising inflation has hammered U.S. consumers. At the same time, Chipotle has faced higher rent, labor, and food costs, squeezing its margins. Such challenges are not unique to Chipotle, but they still have weighed on the company.

Additionally, two years ago, Brian Niccol was its CEO. After he departed for Starbucks in mid-2024, former COO Scott Boatwright took over as CEO. Even though Boatwright previously oversaw many of Niccol's initiatives, he has so far failed to develop an effective turnaround strategy for the chain.

Investors have little reason to expect dramatic improvements in the near term. For the quarter, analysts forecast 8.7% yearly revenue growth. That would be a sequential improvement from its 7.4% in Q1, but well below the 18.2% revenue growth it reported in the second quarter of 2024.

Current Price

32.04

Nonetheless, the stock price may now better reflect the challenges the company faces. After its sell-off, Chipotle's P/E ratio has fallen to 29, matching the S&P 500's average earnings multiple. Between 2018 and 2025, the company's P/E ratio rarely fell below 50.

Hence, while today's earnings multiple may seem like a bargain compared to past valuations, that lower P/E ratio appears to signal a loss of confidence in Chipotle's ability to recover.

Should investors buy Chipotle stock before July 29? Considering the state of Chipotle's business, investors have no obvious reasons to buy shares before July 29.

Most of its problems do not appear to be unique to the fast casual restaurant chain. Also, a slight improvement in revenue growth could provide a much-needed updraft to the stock price.

Unfortunately, the rapid growth that kept its valuation high and drove its stock price higher in past years has ended, and it is unclear if or when Chipotle could reignite it.

While its P/E ratio has fallen significantly, Chipotle's earnings multiple would have to fall further before one might reasonably call it a value stock. Given that it has neither a low valuation nor an obvious path back to significantly faster revenue growth, this consumer discretionary stock is probably not a buy at this time.

Team Internet Group says it earnings growth in second half
WISE Wise
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Team Internet Group PLC (AIM:TIG, OTCQX:TIGXF, FRA:4CN) said it expects to return to year-on-year earnings growth in the second half after its Search division returned to profitability in June, completing its transition away from legacy AdSense for Domains revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA fell 21% year on year to US$19.5 million in the six months to June, though this represented an 8% improvement on the second half of 2025. Net revenue declined 16% to US$61 million, while gross margin widened to 34.1% from 27.6%.

The Comparison division increased adjusted EBITDA by 54% to US$8.4 million, alongside a 28% rise to US$13.7 million from Domains, Identity & Software. Search recorded a US$2.6 million loss across the half, but returned to profit in June following cost reductions, automation and the expansion of Related Search on Content.

Net debt climbed to US$117.5 million from US$87.6 million at December, reflecting tax payments and reduced working-capital financing rather than higher borrowings. Team Internet expects debt to fall significantly during H2.

Its strategic review of the DIS business is progressing with selected parties, with a further update due by the interim results on 7 September and any resulting transaction still targeted for completion during 2026.

Original source text
Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ, OTCQB:VLRMF) said Quorium Global Photonics has launched a stablecoin on Ripple’s XRP Ledger, marking a further step towards completing the companies’ proposed transaction.

The VXRUP stablecoin will serve as the primary liquidity vehicle for QGP’s ecosystem. QGP told Valereum that the issuance forms the foundation of its liquidity framework and advances the execution of Valereum’s digital asset strategy.

Valereum continues to hold 20,000 QMTN2601001 medium-term-note tokens under the original agreement announced in January. Each token carries a stated value of US$10,000, implying an aggregate stated value of US$200 million, although the company stressed that token valuations are inherently uncertain.

Chair James Bannon said the parties were in the “final stages” of a project that has been three years in development. Chief executive Gary Cottle acknowledged that completion had taken longer than anticipated, while QGP said its infrastructure was operational and the pathway to liquidity was clear.

Arc Minerals says its expanding the 'geological contact' Virgo copper project
WISE Wise
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Arc Minerals Limited (AIM:ARCM, OTC:ACMNF, FRA:DFYA) told investors it has mapped an 18-kilometre geological contact at its Virgo copper project in Botswana, expanding the prospective structure by 14 kilometres ahead of drilling scheduled to start in early August.

The induced polarisation survey identified several high-priority chargeability and resistivity anomalies, alongside areas of structural complexity that may act as mineral trap sites. The inferred contact between the D’Kar and Ngwako Pan formations is now more than four times longer than the company had previously expected.

Chief executive Remy Welschinger said the structure lies within metres of MMG’s Mawana Fold and Zone 9 discoveries in the Khoemacau mining project. Arc said the survey findings remain qualitative exploration targets and require geological testing through drilling.

The company is finalising its choice of drilling contractor. Welschinger will also present an update on the Virgo project through Investor Meet Company on 30 July at 4.30pm BST.

Total Graphite hires mine engineer to oversee Vatomina restart
WISE Wise
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Total Graphite PLC (LSE:TGR, OTCQX:TGRHF) announced it has appointed mining engineer Graeme Chester to lead preparations for restarting its Vatomina graphite operation in Madagascar at more than 1,000 tonnes per month from January 2027.

Chester, who has around 50 years of experience across mining, construction and project management, will oversee plant optimisation, infrastructure upgrades and other operational-readiness work over the coming months. He previously carried out the site review that identified opportunities to improve production and efficiency.

Diamond drilling is also continuing to strengthen confidence in the mineral resource and support mine planning. Seven holes have been completed so far, with the company reporting promising intersections of graphitic mineralisation, although assay results remain pending.

An independent geologist is reviewing the initial findings and helping design the continuing drill programme ahead of an August site visit. SRK previously estimated an exploration target of 18–20 million tonnes at 4% graphitic content, complementing Vatomina’s existing 6Mt resource grading 3.8%.

Wise tumbles as US regulator rejects banking licence application
WISE Wise
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Wise Group PLC (LSE:WISE, NASDAQ:WSE) shares fell 9% to 824p after US regulators rejected its application for a national trust bank charter.

The US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency denied the application following concerns linked to historical compliance issues identified after it was submitted more than a year ago.

Deficiencies in anti-money laundering (AML) and countering the financing of terrorism (CFT) compliance were cited by the OCC, according to the Financial Times, as well as the company failing to prove it understood traditional banking duties. The regulator also noted a lack of experience in fiduciary activities within the proposed management team.

Wise said it had since strengthened its US compliance programme, improved customer data, enhanced investigation and reporting processes and increased resources dedicated to preventing financial crime.

It stressed that this decision does not affect its existing services in the US, where it operates through money transmitter licences covering 48 states and four territories, among the more than 80 licences the compaby holds globally.

Wise also said its original proposal had become unworkable after the Federal Reserve paused direct payment-system access for uninsured trust banks.

The company now plans to submit a fresh application under the framework created by the Trump administration's GENIUS Act, which established new US rules for non-bank fintech companies to obtain a limited federal bank charter to issue dollar-backed stablecoins.

Travel + Leisure Q2 Earnings Call Highlights
TNL Travel + Leisure
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Travel + Leisure (NYSE:TNL) raised its full-year 2026 outlook after reporting stronger second-quarter results and announcing two acquisitions that management said will expand its resort network and owner base.

President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Brown said the company’s second-quarter and first-half performance reflected “consistent execution” and the durability of its business model, citing healthy owner trends, robust travel demand, recurring upgrade sales and increasing new owner sales.

For the second quarter, Travel + Leisure reported revenue of $1.06 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $269 million. Brown said gross vacation ownership interest, or VOI, sales increased 6% and exceeded the company’s guidance range, supported by high-quality tours and strong owner engagement. Volume per guest rose 2% year over year to $3,318, also ahead of plan.

Chief Financial Officer Erik Hoag said revenue increased 4%, adjusted EBITDA rose 8% and adjusted earnings per share grew 14% in the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 70 basis points, which he attributed to operating leverage across the business.

Vacation Ownership Drives Growth The company’s Vacation Ownership segment remained the primary driver of results. Hoag said gross VOI sales increased 6% to $693 million, while segment revenue rose 6% to $907 million. Segment adjusted EBITDA increased 13% to $247 million.

Hoag said tours increased 1% in the quarter, reflecting solid demand and new owner acquisition. New owner mix was slightly higher year over year, with healthy transaction volume and close rates.

Brown said the company’s consumer remains healthy and continues to prioritize travel. He pointed to first-half arrivals, adjusted for strategic resort closures, increasing year over year, as well as strong forward bookings. The booking window was 109 days and the average length of stay was four days, both at or above prior-year levels.

In response to a question from Patrick Scholes of Truist Securities about the state of the consumer, Hoag said booking patterns, forward bookings, length of stay and distance traveled remained consistent with what the company saw in the first quarter. “We’ve not seen anything in our metrics that would indicate there’s a weakening occurring,” Hoag said.

Guidance Raised After Strong First Half and Acquisitions Travel + Leisure raised its full-year outlook, citing stronger-than-expected core business performance and the expected contribution from the acquisitions of Yes& Vacations and Spinnaker Resorts.

Hoag said that, excluding acquisitions, the company now expects full-year adjusted EBITDA of $1.05 billion to $1.065 billion. Including the expected contribution from the acquisitions, Travel + Leisure now expects:

Gross VOI sales of $2.6 billion to $2.675 billion; Adjusted EBITDA of $1.065 billion to $1.085 billion; A consolidated loan loss provision rate of approximately 21%; A full-year adjusted tax rate of approximately 29%; Free cash flow conversion of roughly half of adjusted EBITDA; and Year-over-year adjusted EPS growth of approximately 20%. For the third quarter, the company expects gross VOI sales of $700 million to $740 million, adjusted EBITDA of $275 million to $285 million, and volume per guest of $3,300 to $3,350.

Yes& Vacations and Spinnaker Resorts Add Resorts and Owners Brown said the acquisitions of Yes& Vacations and Spinnaker Resorts add 23 resorts, including six properties in Hilton Head and seven in Maui. He described those markets as high-demand leisure destinations where new development is challenging.

The acquisitions also add more than 100,000 owners, expanding Travel + Leisure’s owner base by more than 10%. Brown said the acquired owners are similar in age and average income to the company’s existing owner base, and approximately 80% have fully paid off their timeshare loans.

Hoag said Travel + Leisure is investing approximately $340 million to acquire businesses expected to generate about $50 million of adjusted EBITDA on a full-year synergized basis. After securitizing roughly $80 million of finance receivables, he said net capital deployed falls to about $260 million, implying a net investment multiple of approximately 5 times adjusted EBITDA.

Hoag said the transactions add approximately 0.2 turn of leverage, and the company expects to end 2026 with leverage of 3.2 times. He said the deals were funded through cash and existing debt capacity and did not require a change to the company’s capital return commitment.

During the question-and-answer portion of the call, Brown said the acquisitions provide both resort portfolio expansion and a larger owner base for potential future upgrades, particularly as owners are introduced to Travel + Leisure’s broader network and points-based system.

Capital Returns Continue Management emphasized that shareholder returns remain a priority. Brown said the company returned $253 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases during the first half of the year and reduced common shares outstanding by 4%.

Hoag said the company repurchased approximately $88 million of common stock in the second quarter, up 25% from the prior year, while continuing to pay its quarterly dividend. He said Travel + Leisure expects a similar level of buybacks in 2026 compared with 2025, even after the announced acquisitions.

The company ended the quarter with more than $1.2 billion of available liquidity across cash and its revolving credit facility. Hoag also said Travel + Leisure completed its second asset-backed securities transaction of the year, raising $300 million at a 98% advance rate and a 5.52% coupon.

Loan Performance and Segment Trends Hoag said credit performance remained consistent with underwriting standards. Weighted average FICO scores at origination remained above 740, down payment levels improved year over year, and the loan provision rate was flat year over year. Delinquency rates improved sequentially from the first quarter.

Asked about loan loss trends, Hoag said early-stage delinquencies improved by roughly 80 basis points from the first quarter, more than the roughly 40 basis points of seasonal improvement the company would typically expect. He reiterated that Travel + Leisure expects its organic 2026 loan loss provision to be below 2025 levels, though the acquired portfolios are expected to add some pressure.

The Travel and Membership segment remained under pressure. Hoag said second-quarter revenue declined 5% to $157 million, while segment adjusted EBITDA fell 11% to $49 million, reflecting the continued evolution of the exchange business. He said the company is focused on stabilizing long-term earnings and free cash flow through operational improvements, strategic partnerships and digital initiatives.

Brown also highlighted progress in Travel + Leisure’s multi-brand strategy, saying Margaritaville is on track to exceed $150 million in annual VOI sales, Accor Vacation Club sales are on track to nearly double in 2026, and Eddie Bauer Adventure Club sales are exceeding expectations. Sports Illustrated Resorts is progressing, with the Nashville resort expected to open in the third quarter and sales already underway at a new sales center.

Brown closed the call by saying 2026 is “shaping up to be another great year” for the company, supported by first-half growth, the two acquisitions and continued capital discipline.

Otis Worldwide: Strong Service Growth Still Needs To Show Margin Expansion
OTIS Otis Worldwide Corp
FMP Stock News

I maintain a hold rating on Otis Worldwide Corporation as strong service and modernization demand is not yet translating into earnings growth. Service margins contracted due to higher labor costs and slower productivity ramp from new mechanics, despite robust backlog and retention improvements. New equipment sales remain weak overall, with China still a drag, but the Americas show promising order momentum and backlog growth.

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 28, 2026Alleged Misconduct: Securities fraud relating to Hub Group’s financial results, revenue recognition, accounting of costs, internal controls, and prospects for/drivers of growthLargest Stock Drop: February 6, 2026 – 18% Stock DropCourt: U.S. District Court for the Northern District of IllinoisFiling Law Firm: Bleichmar Fonti & Auld (“BFA Law”)Action: Contact BFA Law to discuss your rights Investors have until August 28, 2026, to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts securities fraud claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors in Hub Group securities. The class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. It is captioned Lawler v. Hub Group, Inc., No. 1:26-cv-07596.

Why is Hub Group Being Sued for Securities Fraud?

Hub Group is a transportation and logistics freight carrier that provides trucking and related services to operators across the supply chain. Hub Group services a customer base extending across various industries, including retail, consumer products, automotive, and durable goods, and reports to be one of the largest freight transportation providers in North America. 

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements concerning the premature and incorrect revenue recognition of certain transactions, the understatement of purchased transportation costs and accounts payable, the effectiveness of internal controls, and the Hub Group’s drivers of financial results and growth.

Why did Hub Group’s Stock Drop?

On February 5, 2026, Hub Group announced that the Company’s financial statements for the first three quarters of 2025 should not be relied upon and would be restated due to “an error that resulted in the understatement of purchased transportation costs and accounts payable in the first nine months of 2025.” Hub Group revealed that its reports for those quarters “were in each case materially misstated due to the aforementioned error and should no longer be relied upon” and that “the Company [wa]s also continuing to assess the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and appropriate remediation steps.”  Hub Group also estimated that “[t]he total amount of the reduction to accounts payable and purchased transportation costs related to this issue that was recorded during these periods is $77 million.”  

This news caused the price of Hub Group stock to decline roughly 18%, from $51.33 per share at close on February 5, 2026, to $41.96 per share at close on February 6, 2026.

On May 12, 2026, Hub Group announced that it had “identified certain transactions that were prematurely or incorrectly recognized or not adequately supported,” causing its 2023 and 2024 annual reports filed with the SEC to be “materially misstated,” such that they “should no longer be relied upon.”  Hub Group did not quantify the expected misstatement, although it “expect[ed] to conclude that it did not maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.”

This news caused the price of Hub Group stock to decline a further 13%, from $41.86 per share at close on May 11, 2026, to $36.62 per share at close on May 12, 2026.

$PODD Fraud Notification: Insulet Sued for Fraud Over Misrepresentations about its Safety Issues – Investors Notified to Contact BFA Law
PODD Insulet Corporation
FMP Stock News
Original source text
NEW YORK, July 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ:PODD) and certain of the Company’s senior executives for securities fraud after its significant stock drop resulting from potential violations of the federal securities laws.

If you invested in Insulet, you are encouraged to obtain additional information by visiting: https://www.bfalaw.com/cases/insulet-class-action-lawsuit.

Key Details of the Insulet ($PODD) Class Action:

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 31, 2026Alleged Misconduct: Securities fraud relating to the safety of Insulet’s Omnipod productsLargest Alleged Stock Drop: March 12, 2026 – 6.88% Stock DropCourt: U.S. District Court for the District of MassachusettsTake Action: Contact BFA Law to discuss your rights
Insulet investors have until August 31, 2026 to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts securities fraud claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors in Insulet securities. The class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. It is captioned Hu v. Insulet Corporation et al., No. 26-cv-13062.

Why is Insulet Being Sued for Securities Fraud?

Insulet is primarily engaged in the development, manufacture, and sale of insulin delivery systems for people with insulin-dependent diabetes through its Omnipod platform. The Omnipod platform includes: the Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System (“Omnipod 5”), the Omnipod DASH® Insulin Management System (“Omnipod DASH”), and the Omnipod Insulin Management System (“Omnipod Eros”).

Throughout the relevant period, Insulet misrepresented the safety of its Omnipod products as well as its ability to efficiently produce “medical grade quality at consumer electronic scale.” In reality, certain of Insulet’s products suffered from undisclosed manufacturing defects that put patient safety at risk.

Why did Insulet’s Stock Drop?

On March 12, 2026, Insulet disclosed that a manufacturing issue with its Omnipod® 5 Pods caused a “tear in the internal tubing that delivers insulin” resulting in insulin being released inside the Pod “instead of being fully infused into the body as intended.” Accordingly, Insulet “initiated a voluntary Medical Device Correction for specific lots of Omnipod® 5 Pods.”

This news caused the price of Insulet stock to drop $16.23 per share, or 6.88%, from a closing price of $236.07 per share on March 12, 2026, to $219.84 per share on March 13, 2026.

On May 26, 2026, Insulet announced another voluntary Medical Device Correction due to a manufacturing issue, this time to its Omnipod 5, Omnipod DASH, and Omnipod Eros systems. It again indicated that the manufacturing issue resulted in a tear in the tubing which “could result in insulin under-delivery.”

This news caused the price of Insulet stock to drop $7.79 per share, or 5.07%, from a closing price of $218.11 per share on May 26, 2026, to $146.01 per share on May 27, 2026.

Why Braze Stock Was Sliding This Week
BRZE Braze
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Tech stocks that weren't manufacturers of artificial intelligence (AI) hardware were feeling the squeeze this week. Several top tech companies indicated plans to spend heavily on building out their AI capabilities; with that, investors aggressively sold out of software companies.

One of these was customer engagement software specialist Braze (BRZE -5.69%). As of Friday morning before market open, the company's shares were down by 15% week to date, according to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence.

200 billion reasons to be worried? Braze didn't have any news of its own sufficient to move its stock meaningfully. It's clear, then, that the company was caught up in the general software rout. If we have to zero in on one particular catalyst for this, it's the second-quarter results published on Wednesday by Alphabet.

Image source: Getty Images.

While Google's parent showed robust growth and estimates-beating fundamentals, it raised its guidance for full-year 2026 capital expenditures (capex) to $195 billion to $205 billion. That was up from its preceding $180 billion to $190 billion. Management also said that capex will increase substantially in 2027.

Not surprisingly, Alphabet executives cited the need to invest aggressively in AI infrastructure as a key reason for the higher capex projections.

A stock for the patient Alphabet has been on top of the tech food chain for decades now, so where it goes, many peer companies will follow. The prospect of mountains of IT budget money being diverted to AI from, say, software implementations and upgrades, spooked investors. We shouldn't be surprised if this fear lingers for some time.

Given this, I'd feel comfortable taking a chance on a solid but beaten-down software company. Any tool that can give a business an edge with customer engagement is inherently appealing, and Braze's solutions qualify. I should caution, though, that these concerns about "AI spend disruption" might not dissipate for a while, so Braze looks more like a mid- to long-term play.

Eric Volkman has no position in any of the stocks mentioned. The Motley Fool has positions in and recommends Alphabet and Braze. The Motley Fool has a disclosure policy.
