Axon Enterprise (NASDAQ:AXON) reported its second-quarter financial results after the market close on Wednesday. The numbers were solid, but investors seemed unimpressed, sending shares lower in after-hours trading.

Looking ahead, the company raised its full-year 2026 guidance from a range of $3.61 billion to $3.67 billion to a new range of $3.67 billion to $3.73 billion, versus the $3.66 billion analysts were expecting.

Why the Stock Dropped
