U.S. stock futures are climbing Wednesday morning, setting the stage for what could be an interesting day as several major companies report earnings or react to after-hours results. Here's what's catching attention.
Wall Street is expecting Dollar Tree Inc. (DLTR) to report quarterly earnings of $1.08 per share on revenue of $4.70 billion before the opening bell, according to data from market sources. The discount retailer's shares ticked up 0.5% to $109.49 in after-hours trading Tuesday, suggesting cautious optimism heading into the print.
CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. (CRWD) delivered better-than-expected results for the third quarter and raised its full-year outlook, but investors weren't exactly throwing confetti. The cybersecurity company posted Q3 revenue slightly above $1.23 billion, topping analyst estimates of approximately $1.22 billion. Adjusted earnings came in at 96 cents per share, beating the 94-cent consensus. Despite the solid quarter and improved guidance, CrowdStrike shares slipped 3% to $500.96 in after-hours trading, a reminder that sometimes meeting high expectations isn't quite enough.
Analysts are bracing for Macy's Inc. (M) to post a quarterly loss of 16 cents per share on revenue of $4.60 billion when it reports before the opening bell. The department store chain saw shares rise 1.8% to $23.12 in after-hours trading, perhaps reflecting hopes that the results won't be as grim as feared.
Box Inc. (BOX) had a rougher evening. The cloud content management company reported third quarter earnings that matched expectations, but its fiscal 2026 guidance disappointed. Box projected fiscal 2026 EPS of more than $1.28, falling short of the $1.31 analyst estimate, while revenue guidance of more than $1.18 billion merely met the consensus. Investors weren't thrilled with the cautious outlook, sending shares down 6.1% to $28.34 in extended trading.
Finally, Salesforce Inc. (CRM) is scheduled to report after the closing bell, with analysts expecting quarterly earnings of $2.86 per share on revenue of $10.27 billion. The enterprise software giant's shares edged up 0.6% to $236.00 in after-hours trading as investors await the results.
It's shaping up to be one of those days where the market digests a flood of corporate news and tries to figure out what it all means for the broader economy.
