The earnings calendar for the first full week of 2026 is shaping up to be an interesting one, with reports spanning everything from cannabis to AI infrastructure to the people who make your beer and eggs. It's an eclectic mix that should offer clues about how companies are handling the early days of the new year, which has already seen geopolitical developments in South America and the massive CES 2026 tech conference taking over Las Vegas.
If you're watching the calendar closely, you can relax for the first couple of days. Monday and Tuesday will come and go without any notable earnings reports worth tracking.
Wednesday, Jan. 7
Before Market Open:
Wednesday morning kicks things off with grocery retailer Albertsons Companies, Inc. (ACI) reporting its third-quarter 2025 results. Also on deck before the opening bell: Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. (CALM), the largest producer and distributor of shell eggs in the United States, which will report second-quarter 2026 results. If you've noticed egg prices lately, that Cal-Maine report might carry some extra context.
After Market Close:
The afternoon session brings Applied Digital Corp. (APLD), an AI infrastructure and cloud services provider that's become increasingly relevant as demand for high-performance computing continues to surge. The company will report second-quarter results after Wednesday's closing bell, with analysts expecting a loss of 10 cents per share on quarterly revenue of $87.51 million.
What investors really want to hear about is Applied Digital's high-performance computing data centers and the status of its ongoing partnership with CoreWeave, Inc. (CRWV). In a world where AI infrastructure is the hottest real estate in tech, Applied Digital's positioning matters.
Also reporting Wednesday afternoon: Constellation Brands, Inc. (STZ), the maker of Modelo and Corona beers. The company will release third-quarter 2026 results after the closing bell. Because somebody has to keep America's bars stocked.
Thursday, Jan. 8
Before Market Open:
Thursday morning brings a batch of reports from companies you might not follow daily but that touch different corners of the economy. Before the opening bell, expect results from:
After Market Close:
Thursday afternoon is when things get particularly interesting. Canadian cannabis producer Tilray Brands, Inc. (TLRY) will report second-quarter 2026 results after the closing bell, and this one comes with some compelling storylines attached.
Following the recent landmark federal rescheduling news in the United States, investors will be listening closely for any updates on Tilray Medical USA, the company's new division, along with details about its broader expansion strategy. The company is navigating what could be a transformational period for the cannabis industry, assuming federal policy continues evolving in a favorable direction.
Wall Street analysts are expecting Tilray to report a loss of 20 cents per share on revenue of $210.95 million for the quarter. Here's the sobering part: Tilray has never reported a profitable quarter. That's not necessarily unusual for a growth company in an emerging industry, but it does mean profitability remains the white whale investors are waiting to see.
Also scheduled for Thursday afternoon: Aehr Test Systems, Inc. (AEHR), which will report second-quarter 2026 results.
All in all, it's a week that covers a surprising amount of ground. From the mundane essentials like eggs and groceries to the cutting-edge world of AI infrastructure and the still-maturing cannabis sector, these reports should paint an interesting picture of how different industries are starting the year. Investors will be parsing every detail for signs of strength, weakness, or just plain weirdness as 2026 gets underway.
