Earnings live: Spotify, Novo, UnitedHealth stocks slide after results; Boeing beats

Earnings live: Spotify, Novo, UnitedHealth stocks slide after results; Boeing beats

Yahoo3 days ago
Second quarter earnings season is in full swing, and the results have been largely positive so far, with more positive surprises than negative ones.
Companies had a lower bar to clear coming into the quarter, as analysts tempered their expectations amid President Trump's tariffs, stocks' lofty valuations, and uncertainty about the health of the US economy.
This week, investors will be treated to another flurry of quarterly results from Big Tech companies, including Microsoft (MSFT), Apple (AAPL), Meta (META), and Amazon (AMZN). This week's reports also include updates from Spotify (SPOT), Ford (F), Procter & Gamble (PG), Boeing (BA), Starbucks (SBUX), and Qualcomm (QCOM), among others.
Data from FactSet published Friday showed that with 34% of the index having reported results, analysts expect S&P 500 companies to report a 5.6% jump in earnings per share during the second quarter.
Heading into the quarter, analysts expected S&P 500 earnings to rise 5% in Q2, which would mark the slowest pace of earnings growth since the fourth quarter of 2023.
Here are the latest updates from corporate America.
Boeing Q2 results beat expectations as planemaker slashes costs
Boeing (BA) reported second quarter earnings on Tuesday that topped expectations — and stemmed the tide of cash burn that's plagued Boeing since early last year as CEO Kelly Ortberg continues his turnaround of the beleaguered jet maker.
Boeing reported revenue of $22.7 billion, more than the $21.68 billion analysts had forecast, according to Bloomberg data and a 35% jump compared to a year ago. Last year, the company was mired in a production slowdown stemming from the door plug blowout of an Alaska Airlines 737 Max jet.
The company posted adjusted loss per share of $1.24, less than the $1.40 that was forecast, while its operating loss tallied $176 million more than the $161.1 million estimated.
Most importantly, Boeing's cash burn rate was cut to just $200 million in Q2, a massive improvement to the $2.3 billion cash burn last quarter and the $4.3 billion cash burn seen a year ago.

Spotify stock sinks after Q2 earnings miss
Spotify (SPOT) shares fell as much as 10% in early premarket trading Tuesday after the audio streamer missed second quarter earnings and revenue expectations.
The results follow a remarkable 120% rally over the past year, as the stock rebounded from 2022 lows on the back of price hikes, cost cuts, and investor enthusiasm for AI and advertising.
Spotify hit a record high of $738.45 earlier this month, but shares slid to around $635 immediately following the results.
Spotify reported second quarter revenue of €4.19 billion ($4.86 billion), missing analyst expectations of €4.27 billion, though up from €3.81 billion in the same period last year.
The company posted an adjusted loss of €0.42 ($0.49) per share, sharply missing forecasts for a profit of €1.97 and down from earnings of €1.33 in Q2 2024.
"Outsized currency movements during the quarter impacted reported revenue by €104 million vs. guidance," the company said in the earnings release. Operating income also fell short of expectations, although subscriber metrics
Spotify's massive rally heading into the earnings report was fueled by a sweeping business overhaul, including layoffs, leadership changes, and a pullback from costly podcast exclusivity.
After spending $1 billion to build out its podcast business, the company has since scaled back and narrowed its focus. Still, it remains committed to the medium, paying over $100 million to creators in Q1 alone, including high-profile names like Joe Rogan and Alex Cooper.

UPS (UPS) stock fell 4% premarket on Tuesday after reporting a drop in second-quarter profit and revenue, as demand took a hit from the "de minimis" tariffs on low-value Chinese shipments. The company did not update its full year revenue and operating profit due to growing economic uncertainty.

Spotify set to report earnings as investor optimism meets cautious guidance
Spotify (SPOT) is set to report second quarter earnings on Tuesday before the bell, and investors are weighing the music streamer's long-term monetization potential against softer near-term guidance.
Yahoo Finance's Allie Canal reports that Spotify stock has risen 120% over the past 12 months. The company's massive stock rally has followed a sweeping business overhaul, including layoffs, leadership changes, and a pullback from costly podcast exclusivity.
After spending $1 billion to build out its podcast business, the company has since scaled back and narrowed its focus. Still, it remains committed to the medium, paying over $100 million to creators in Q1 alone, including high-profile names like Joe Rogan and Alex Cooper.

Whirlpool stock tumbles after trimming earnings guidance
Whirlpool (WHR) stock tumbled 12% after hours. The Michigan-based maker of washers and dryers reported diluted earnings of $1.17 per share on net sales of $3.7 billion. Wall Street was expecting earnings of $1.58 per share on net sales of $3.8 billion.
Investors have been watching Whirlpool, which manufactures most of its appliances in the US, as a potential winner from President Trump's tariffs.
However, the company hasn't seen the benefits of Trump's policies yet. In fact, retailers front-running expected tariffs appeared to weigh on the company's second quarter results.
"As expected, the second quarter continued to be impacted by competitors stockpiling Asian imports into the U.S.," the company said in the earnings release. "Despite this, we are well positioned in North America with a robust pipeline of new products, the industry's leading U.S. manufacturing footprint, and favorable housing demand fundamentals. We are confident in our long-term strategy and believe that evolving tariff policies will ultimately support domestic manufacturers."
Whirlpool also cut its full-year guidance to $6 to $8 a share (previously it was $10 a share) and recommended slashing its quarterly dividend to $0.90 per share from $1.75 per share.
Waste Management beats on revenue, earnings
Waste Management (WM) reported earnings and revenue that beat Wall Street expectations, sending the shares marginally higher in after-hours trading.
Earnings per share of $1.92 were ahead of estimates for earnings of $1.90 per share, while revenue of $6.43 billion exceeded estimates of $6.35 billion, per S&P Global Market Intelligence.
"Our second quarter results are a strong demonstration of our progress on all fronts," WM CEO Jim Fish said in a release. "Our Collection and Disposal business produced robust organic revenue growth and margin expansion, achieving the Company's best-ever operating expense margin."
Waste Management stock rose 0.7% following the results.
Tilray stock sinks after earnings
Tilray stock (TLRY) reversed gains, sinking over 6% after hours after the Canadian cannabis company posted mixed quarterly results.
Net revenue was $224.5 million in the fourth quarter compared to $229.9 million in the same period a year ago and $233 million estimated, per S&P Global Market Intelligence.
Tilray posted adjusted earnings of $0.02 per share, compared to expectations for flat profitability.
For its fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, Tilray expects to achieve adjusted EBITDA of $62 million to $72 million

With 34% of S&P 500 companies having reported results, 80% have reported a positive earnings per share surprise, and 80% reported a positive revenue surprise.
Earnings season isn't slowing down just yet, however, with more major companies reporting next week. Notable companies reporting include Big Tech giants such as Microsoft (MSFT) and Apple (AAPL) and consumer-facing names like Procter & Gamble (PG) and Mastercard (MA) that can provide an updated view on consumer health.

Intel turnaround story could realistically take years, analyst says
Intel (INTC) stock fell 9% on Friday after the company reported quarterly results on Thursday that showed it was focused on cost-cutting.
Intel's revenue of $12.8 billion beat analyst expectations of $11.8 billion, per Bloomberg data, and the chipmaker issued an upbeat Q3 revenue forecast of between $12.6 billion and $13.6 billion.
But the company continues to face challenges as it attempts to transform into a chipmaker as well as a chip designer. As Yahoo Finance's Laura Bratton noted in our markets blog, investors focused on Intel's manufacturing roadmap instead of its headline numbers for the quarter.
Intel, once a leading global chipmaker, has fallen behind its rivals in both its own products and its attempt to manufacture chips for outside customers.
'This is a multiquarter — realistically, probably multiyear — kind of complete turnaround story before all the benefits start to show up,' TECHnalysis Research president and chief analyst Bob O'Donnell told Yahoo Finance following the report.
Boston Beer Company says strong profits helped brewer absorb tariff costs
The Boston Beer Company (SAM) reported earnings and revenue that topped analyst expectations on Thursday, and the Samuel Adams brewer maintained its earnings outlook for the year.
Profits were $5.45 per share on revenue of $625 million, versus estimates for earnings of $4.00 per share on $588 million, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.
SAM stock popped 6% on Friday, as the company also said it expects to see lower tariff costs than previously expected.
For the full year, Boston Beer expects tariffs to weigh on costs by about $15 million to $20 million, instead of the $20 million to $30 million it previously modeled.
"Right now, I think we're very happy with the performance," Boston Beer CEO Michael Spillane said on the earnings call. "Not only that, but that's allowed us to offset some of the tariffs that we've seen so far."

Puma stock plunges after reporting net loss, with challenges persisting throughout 2025
Puma (PUM.DE) stock plunged 17% after the German sports apparel company lowered its forecast and said it now expects sales to fall by double digits this year.
During the second quarter, sales fell everywhere except Latin America and the Middle East, particularly in apparel (-10.7%) and accessories (-6.4%). Footwear sales grew 5.1%, which wasn't enough to offset softness elsewhere.
The company swung to a net loss of 241 million euros (roughly $282 million), compared to net income of 41.9 million euros the year before.
The sportswear company also noted a hit from tariffs. "Despite ongoing mitigating measures such as supply chain optimization, pricing adjustments and partner collaboration, the U.S. Tariffs are expected to have a mitigated negative impact in 2025 of around € 80 million on gross profit," Puma said in its release.
Phillips 66 profit beats estimates on higher refining margins
Phillips 66 (PSX) stock rose about 1% in premarket trading after the US refiner reported an adjusted profit of $2.38 per share, beating Wall Street EPS estimates of about $1.71.

Hoka sneakers and Ugg brand shoes boosted Deckers (DECK) sales and profits last quarter, sending shares up more than 14% after hours.
On Thursday, Deckers reported net sales grew 17% to $964.5 million, above estimates of $901.4 million, per Bloomberg data. Profits surged 24%, with diluted earnings per share coming in at $0.93.
"HOKA and UGG outperformed our first quarter expectations, with robust growth delivering solid results to begin fiscal year 2026," CEO Stefano Caroti said in a press release. "Though uncertainty remains elevated in the global trade environment, our confidence in our brands has not changed, and the long-term opportunities ahead are significant. We will lean on the fundamental strengths of our powerful operating model as we continue executing our strategy."
The main story for the quarter was Deckers' international business: International net sales rose 49.7%, offsetting a 2.8% decline in domestic sales.

Intel turnaround story could realistically take years, analyst says
Intel (INTC) stock fell 9% on Friday after the company reported quarterly results on Thursday that showed it was focused on cost-cutting.
Intel's revenue of $12.8 billion beat analyst expectations of $11.8 billion, per Bloomberg data, and the chipmaker issued an upbeat Q3 revenue forecast of between $12.6 billion and $13.6 billion.
But the company continues to face challenges as it attempts to transform into a chipmaker as well as a chip designer. As Yahoo Finance's Laura Bratton noted in our markets blog, investors focused on Intel's manufacturing roadmap instead of its headline numbers for the quarter.
Intel, once a leading global chipmaker, has fallen behind its rivals in both its own products and its attempt to manufacture chips for outside customers.
'This is a multiquarter — realistically, probably multiyear — kind of complete turnaround story before all the benefits start to show up,' TECHnalysis Research president and chief analyst Bob O'Donnell told Yahoo Finance following the report.

Boston Beer Company says strong profits helped brewer absorb tariff costs
The Boston Beer Company (SAM) reported earnings and revenue that topped analyst expectations on Thursday, and the Samuel Adams brewer maintained its earnings outlook for the year.
Profits were $5.45 per share on revenue of $625 million, versus estimates for earnings of $4.00 per share on $588 million, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.
SAM stock popped 6% on Friday, as the company also said it expects to see lower tariff costs than previously expected.
For the full year, Boston Beer expects tariffs to weigh on costs by about $15 million to $20 million, instead of the $20 million to $30 million it previously modeled.
"Right now, I think we're very happy with the performance," Boston Beer CEO Michael Spillane said on the earnings call. "Not only that, but that's allowed us to offset some of the tariffs that we've seen so far."

"Right now, I think we're very happy with the performance," Boston Beer CEO Michael Spillane said on the earnings call. "Not only that, but that's allowed us to offset some of the tariffs that we've seen so far."

Puma stock plunges after reporting net loss, with challenges persisting throughout 2025
Puma (PUM.DE) stock plunged 17% after the German sports apparel company lowered its forecast and said it now expects sales to fall by double digits this year.
During the second quarter, sales fell everywhere except Latin America and the Middle East, particularly in apparel (-10.7%) and accessories (-6.4%). Footwear sales grew 5.1%, which wasn't enough to offset softness elsewhere.
The company swung to a net loss of 241 million euros (roughly $282 million), compared to net income of 41.9 million euros the year before.
The sportswear company also noted a hit from tariffs. "Despite ongoing mitigating measures such as supply chain optimization, pricing adjustments and partner collaboration, the U.S. Tariffs are expected to have a mitigated negative impact in 2025 of around € 80 million on gross profit," Puma said in its release.

US tech titan earnings rise on AI as economy roils

Tech giants Amazon, Apple, Meta and Microsoft this week eclipsed earnings expectations, cashing in on artificial intelligence (AI) while navigating economic waters roiled by US tariffs. "Massive results seen by Microsoft and Meta further validate the use cases and unprecedented spending trajectory for the AI Revolution on both the enterprise and consumer fronts," Wedbush tech analyst Dan Ives said in a note to investors. "We have barely scratched the surface of this 4th Industrial Revolution now playing out around the world led by the Big Tech stalwarts such as Nvidia, Microsoft, Palantir, Meta, Alphabet, and Amazon," Ives added. Amazon reported a 35 percent jump in quarterly profits as the e-commerce giant said major investments in AI technology are paying off. "Our conviction that AI will change every customer experience is starting to play out," said Chief Executive Andy Jassy, pointing to the company's expanded Alexa+ service and new AI shopping agents. But the Seattle-based company's profit outlook for the current quarter came in lower than hoped for, with investors worried that the cost of AI was weighing on the bottom line. This was despite a stellar second quarter that exceeded analyst expectations, much like it did for its AI-focused rivals Google, Microsoft and Meta, which posted bumper results for the period. Amazon's net sales climbed 13 percent, signaling that the company was so far surviving impacts of the high-tariff trade policy under US President Donald Trump. Amazon Web Services (AWS), the company's world-leading cloud computing division, led the charge with sales jumping 17.5 percent to $30.9 billion. Its strong performance reflects surging demand for cloud infrastructure to power AI applications, a trend that has benefited major cloud providers as companies race to adopt generative AI technologies. - $4 trillion club - Shares of Microsoft spiked Thursday following blowout quarterly results, lifting the tech giant into the previously unprecedented $4 trillion club along with Nvidia, another AI standout. The landmark valuation is the latest sign of growing bullishness about an AI investment boom that market watchers believe is still in the early stages -- even as companies like Microsoft plan $100 billion or more in annual capital spending to add new capacity. "Cloud and AI is the driving force of business transformation across every industry and sector," said Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. At the heart of the results was a stunning surge in Azure, the company's cloud computing platform, which is getting "supercharged" with AI, said Angelo Zino, technology analyst at CFRA Research. Zino attributed "just about all of" Microsoft's recent climb in valuation to AI. - Superintelligence? - Meta reported robust second-quarter financial results Wednesday, with revenue jumping 22 percent year-over-year as the social media giant continues investing heavily in artificial intelligence. "We've had a strong quarter both in terms of our business and community," said CEO Mark Zuckerberg. "I'm excited to build personal superintelligence for everyone in the world." Zuckerberg has embarked on a major AI spending spree, poaching top researchers with expensive pay packages from rivals like OpenAI and Apple as he builds a team to pursue what he calls AI superintelligence. Hours before the earnings report, Zuckerberg insisted that the attainment of superintelligence -- technology that would theoretically be more powerful than the human brain -- is now "in sight." Meanwhile Apple, which is seen as lagging in the AI race, beat expectations with earnings driven by strong iPhone sales despite US tariffs costing the company $800 million in the recently-ended quarter. Apple expects Trump's tariffs to cost the iPhone maker $1.1 billion in the current quarter. "The results show that Apple's iPhone strategy is working to offset the impact of looming challenges with AI development timelines, tariff pressures, and Google's antitrust issues," said Emarketer tech analyst Jacob Bourne. Apple chief executive Tim Cook said on an earnings call that taking the most advanced technologies and making them easy to use is "at the heart of our AI strategy." Cook said Apple has been rolling out Apple Intelligence AI features and is "making good progress on a more personalized Siri." gc/aks Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data

China's manufacturing activity shrinks as exports drag, S&P PMI shows

BEIJING (Reuters) -China's factory activity deteriorated in July, as a softening of new business growth led manufacturers to scale back production, a private-sector survey showed on Friday. The S&P Global China General Manufacturing PMI fell to 49.5 in July from 50.4 in June, undershooting analysts' expectations of 50.4 in a Reuters poll. The 50-mark separates growth from contraction. The reading, combined with Thursday's official survey, bodes ill for growth momentum at the start of the third quarter, following robust growth in the first half of the year. Amid a trade truce with Washington, economists say the support of exports front-loading ahead of higher U.S. tariffs to the world's second-biggest economy may fade over the remainder of the year. According to the S&P Global survey, new export orders contracted for a fourth straight month and at a faster pace than in June. After rising in June, manufacturing output declined in July. Firms looked to utilise their current stock holdings for the fulfilment of orders, which contributed to a second successive monthly decline in post-production inventories. Falling production together with a stable backlog prompted factory owners to lower their headcount in July. Firms also said cost concerns had underpinned decisions to shed staff. However, business sentiment improved at the start of the second half of 2025 but was still below the series average. Manufacturers expected better economic conditions and promotional efforts to spur sales in the year ahead. As Beijing started to tackle "price wars" among manufacturers, average input prices increased for the first time in five months. Firms nevertheless lowered their selling prices again as competition for new business intensified. But export charges increased at the fastest pace in a year due to rising shipping and logistics costs. Top leaders on Wednesday pledged to support an economy that is facing various risks, by managing what is viewed as disorderly competition in the second half of the year. Markets expected that Beijing may be about to start a new round of factory capacity cuts in a long-awaited but challenging campaign against deflation. From July, Caixin no longer sponsors the S&P Global China PMI. Sign in to access your portfolio

Asian Stocks Decline on Tariffs, Dollar Edges Up: Markets Wrap

(Bloomberg) -- Asian stocks fell for a sixth straight session — the longest losing streak this year — as President Donald Trump announced new tariff rates and solid earnings from megacap tech firms failed to lift sentiment. The World's Data Center Capital Has Residents Surrounded An Abandoned Art-Deco Landmark in Buffalo Awaits Revival We Should All Be Biking Along the Beach Budapest's Most Historic Site Gets a Controversial Rebuild San Francisco in Talks With Vanderbilt for Downtown Campus The MSCI Asia Pacific Index dropped 0.6% as South Korean shares sank 3%. Contracts for the S&P 500 and European stocks fell 0.2%. Trump announced a slew of new tariffs, including a 10% global minimum and 15% or higher duties for countries with trade surpluses with the US. The dollar edged higher Friday after posting its first monthly gain since Trump took office in January. The Taiwan dollar fell for a seventh consecutive day, the longest losing streak since June 2023, as the island got a 20% tariff rate. The Swiss franc edged lower after Trump put a 39% levy on the country's exports to the US. The moves signaled that concerns over tariffs and economic growth were starting to outweigh the AI-driven optimism that has buoyed megacap tech stocks. While artificial intelligence remains a pillar of long-term bullishness, investors are bracing for potential trade disruptions as the US and key partners weigh new levies. 'The announcement brings clarity on paper, but uncertainty in practice,' said Charu Chanana, chief investment strategist at Saxo Markets. 'While markets now know the numbers, the lack of a clear framework behind these tariffs — and the seemingly arbitrary rates — only reinforces the sense of policy unpredictability. This makes it harder for businesses and investors to plan ahead.' The White House issued a statement just hours before midnight, the deadline Trump set last month after pausing his country-based tariffs for a second time to allow for negotiations. It was unclear exactly when the new rates would take effect. Markets Live Strategist Garfield Reynolds says: We're now officially entering the era of substantial barriers to trade. The impact will hurt global trade and growth, and that's likely to bring equities down from their recent peaks. Lingering uncertainty will also weigh on corporate decision-making, further chilling growth. While most of the levies just announced are lower than the extremes flagged on April 2, there's a lack of rationale for many of the rates set that will add to the air of policy volatility. Some of the tariffs were expected, such as a 25% levy on Indian exports. Others included charges of 20% on Taiwanese products, 39% on Swiss goods and 30% on South African products. Thailand and Cambodia, two countries that were said to have struck a last-minute deal, received a 19% duty. Taiwan and the US haven't yet held a summary meeting due to scheduling conflicts and the tariff rate of 20% is temporary, according to a statement from Taiwan's cabinet. Taiwan will work to reach an agreement with the US as soon as possible to seek a further reduction in reciprocal tariffs. Read the Full List of US Tariff Rates on Global Trading Partners US stocks fell Thursday, erasing an initial advance on tech earnings that sent Microsoft Corp. above $4 trillion in market value. Apple Inc. shares rose in after-market trading following a sales beat, while those for Inc. fell as its outlook underwhelmed. Meanwhile, Trump sent letters to 17 of the largest pharmaceutical companies in a bid to lower prices, weakening their shares Thursday. Trump is also asking bank chief executive officers for their pitches on monetizing mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, including a major public offering of stock, according to people familiar with the matter. The market's attention will soon turn to Friday's jobs report for July, which is forecast to show companies are becoming more deliberate in their hiring. Employment likely moderated after a June increase, while the unemployment rate is seen ticking up to 4.2%. In the run-up, the Fed's preferred measure of underlying inflation accelerated in June to one of the fastest paces this year while consumer spending barely rose, underscoring the dueling forces dividing policymakers over the path of rates. The core personal consumption expenditures price index rose 0.3% from May. It advanced 2.8% on an annual basis, a pickup from June 2024 that underscores limited progress on taming inflation in the past year. The data also showed inflation-adjusted consumer spending edged up last month. Corporate Highlights: Apple Inc. reported its fastest quarterly revenue growth in more than three years, easily topping Wall Street estimates. Inc. dropped in late trading after projecting weaker-than-expected operating income. Tokyo Electron Ltd. shares dived 18% — the most in nearly a year — after the chip tool maker slashed its full-year earnings outlook. Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp.'s second-quarter profit topped estimates thanks to a fee jump. Shein Group Ltd.'s net income rose to over $400 million and revenue was almost $10 billion in the first quarter as consumers snapped up the fast-fashion retailer's products ahead of US tariffs. Asian pharmaceutical companies that sell products in the US slid after Trump demanded drug companies lower US prices.
