Why Is Apogee (APOG) Stock Rocketing Higher Today
Shares of architectural products company Apogee (NASDAQ:APOG) jumped 12% in the morning session after the company reported first-quarter results that beat analyst expectations and raised its full-year guidance for both sales and earnings. Apogee now expects full-year adjusted earnings per share to be between $3.80 and $4.20, up from its previous estimate and ahead of Wall Street's consensus of $3.72. The company also lifted its sales forecast to a range of $1.40 billion to $1.44 billion. First-quarter revenue saw a 4.6% year-over-year increase to $346.6 million, driven in part by the recent acquisition of UW Solutions.
While the company faced headwinds from tariffs and lower volumes in its architectural glass segment, CEO Ty R. Silberhorn expressed confidence in a stronger second-half performance. The positive guidance suggests that Apogee's strategic initiatives, including the UW Solutions integration and other investments, are expected to expand its market reach and drive future growth.

Apogee's shares are somewhat volatile and have had 11 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Apogee and indicate this news significantly impacted the market's perception of the business.
The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 6 months ago when the stock dropped 17% on the news that the company reported underwhelming calendar fourth-quarter 2024 results. Sales were flat year on year, and this weighed on profits as operating margin fell. In addition, its full-year EPS guidance slightly missed, suggesting the weakness might be more pronounced in the coming quarters. Overall, we think this was a challenging quarter.
Apogee is down 41.1% since the beginning of the year, and at $41.88 per share, it is trading 52% below its 52-week high of $87.22 from November 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Apogee's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,780.
Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth.

Traws Pharma Advances Antiviral Pipeline with Multiple Regulatory Submissions
Phase 2 protocol submitted to HREC to evaluate tivoxavir marboxil (TXM) in a combined seasonal and bird flu study in the Southern Hemisphere Briefing documents submitted to FDA for a Type D meeting request to continue discussions on path forward for accelerated approval of TXM for bird flu Phase 2 study protocol submitted to HREC to evaluate ratutrelvir in newly diagnosed COVID patients, with extensions to measure disease rebound and development of Long COVID NEWTOWN, Pa., June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Traws Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRAW) ('Traws Pharma', 'Traws' or 'the Company'), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapies to target critical threats to human health from respiratory viral diseases, today announced multiple regulatory submissions related to its antiviral pipeline. Tivoxavir marboxil A proposed Phase 2 dose-ranging, non-inferiority study will evaluate the effects of tivoxavir marboxil (TXM), a potential best in class CAP-dependent endonuclease inhibitor, compared to XOFLUZA®, in patients infected with seasonal influenza. A separate single arm will evaluate the effects of TXM in patients infected with H5N1 bird flu. The proposed study has been submitted for Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) review and is expected to enroll subjects in Australia and selected countries in Southeast Asia (SE Asia) with high rates of human bird flu infections. 'This combined study, evaluating the effects of TXM in seasonal and bird flu patients, could support the broad use of TXM against multiple influenza strains,' commented Robert R. Redfield, MD, Chief Medical Officer for Traws Pharma and former Director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 'The high rates of animal-to-human transmission of bird flu in SE Asia should allow us to evaluate the efficacy of TXM in this important clinical setting, adding to our robust pre-clinical efficacy results of TXM against bird flu.' Also, as a follow up to recent Pre-IND FDA interactions on TXM, Traws submitted briefing materials for a Type D meeting to enable further FDA dialog on a potential path to accelerated approval for bird flu. 'We are continuing to discuss with the FDA the applicability of the Animal Rule and other routes that could support an accelerated approval of TXM for bird flu,' commented C. David Pauza, PhD, Chief Science Officer for Traws Pharma. 'We look forward to continuing positive interactions with the Agency.' Ratutrelvir A proposed Phase 2 non-inferiority study will evaluate the effects of ratutrelvir, a potential best in class protease inhibitor that does not require ritonavir co-administration, compared to PAXLOVID®, in newly diagnosed COVID patients. The proposed study that has been submitted for HREC review is intended to enroll patients on a 10-day treatment regimen for ratutrelvir compared to the approved 5-day regimen for PAXLOVID®. In addition to efficacy and safety endpoints, the proposed study will also evaluate the rates of disease rebound as well as the incidence of Long COVID. A separate single arm will evaluate the safety and efficacy of ratutrelvir in newly diagnosed COVID patients who are ineligible for treatment with PAXLOVID®. 'A significant population of patients who are at risk for poor outcomes from COVID are ineligible for PAXLOVID®. In addition, rebound infections and prevention of the development of Long COVID are unaddressed by existing therapies. We believe ratutrelvir has the potential to overcome these issues,' commented Dr. Redfield. 'Our proposed Phase 2 study is expected to highlight the differentiating attributes of ratutrelvir compared to existing approved therapies.' 'Today's announcements demonstrate our commitment to rapidly advance our antiviral portfolio,' commented Iain D. Dukes, MA, DPhil, Interim Chief Executive Officer for Traws Pharma. 'We look forward to delivering these potentially vital medicines to patients.' About Tivoxavir Marboxil Tivoxavir marboxil (TXM) is an investigational oral, small molecule CAP-dependent endonuclease inhibitor designed to be administered as a single-dose for the treatment of bird flu and seasonal influenza. It has potent in vitro activity against a range of influenza strains in preclinical studies, including a human isolate of the highly pathogenic avian flu H5N1 (bird flu). Consistent, positive preclinical data from three animal species indicate that a single dose of TXM demonstrated a therapeutic effect against H5N1 bird flu. Seasonal influenza represents an estimated multi-billion dollar antiviral market opportunity, largely driven by global health organizations, practice guidelines and government tenders1,2, with upside potential from potential pandemic flu outbreaks including H5N1 bird flu. We believe that these data support further development of TXM as a treatment for bird flu. About Ratutrelvir Ratutrelvir is an investigational oral, small molecule Mpro (3CL protease) inhibitor designed to be a broadly acting treatment for COVID-19 that is used without ritonavir. It has demonstrated in vitro activity against a range of COVID-19 strains. Preclinical and Phase 1 studies show that ratutrelvir does not require co-administration with a metabolic inhibitor, such as ritonavir, which could avoid ritonavir-associated drug-drug interactions3, and potentially enable wider patient use. Phase 1 data also show that ratutrelvir's pharmacokinetic (PK) profile demonstrated maintenance of target blood plasma levels approximately 13 times above the EC50 using the target Phase 2 dosing regimen of 600 mg/day for ten days, which may also reduce the likelihood of clinical rebound and, consequently, reduce the risk for Long COVID4. Industry data indicate that COVID treatment represents a potential multi-billion dollar market opportunity5,6.

Johnson Outdoors (NASDAQ:JOUT) Has Announced A Dividend Of $0.33
Johnson Outdoors Inc.'s (NASDAQ:JOUT) investors are due to receive a payment of $0.33 per share on 24th of July. The dividend yield will be 4.5% based on this payment which is still above the industry average. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. If the payments aren't sustainable, a high yield for a few years won't matter that much. Even though Johnson Outdoors isn't generating a profit, it is generating healthy free cash flows that easily cover the dividend. In general, cash flows are more important than the more traditional measures of profit so we feel pretty comfortable with the dividend at this level. The next year is set to see EPS grow by 157.8%. If the dividend continues along recent trends, we estimate the payout ratio will be 59%, which is in the range that makes us comfortable with the sustainability of the dividend. See our latest analysis for Johnson Outdoors Even over a long history of paying dividends, the company's distributions have been remarkably stable. Since 2015, the annual payment back then was $0.30, compared to the most recent full-year payment of $1.32. This implies that the company grew its distributions at a yearly rate of about 16% over that duration. We can see that payments have shown some very nice upward momentum without faltering, which provides some reassurance that future payments will also be reliable. Investors who have held shares in the company for the past few years will be happy with the dividend income they have received. However, things aren't all that rosy. Johnson Outdoors' earnings per share has shrunk at 46% a year over the past five years. Such rapid declines definitely have the potential to constrain dividend payments if the trend continues into the future. Over the next year, however, earnings are actually predicted to rise, but we would still be cautious until a track record of earnings growth can be built. Overall, we don't think this company makes a great dividend stock, even though the dividend wasn't cut this year. The company has been bring in plenty of cash to cover the dividend, but we don't necessarily think that makes it a great dividend stock. We would probably look elsewhere for an income investment. Investors generally tend to favour companies with a consistent, stable dividend policy as opposed to those operating an irregular one. Meanwhile, despite the importance of dividend payments, they are not the only factors our readers should know when assessing a company. Taking the debate a bit further, we've identified 1 warning sign for Johnson Outdoors that investors need to be conscious of moving forward. Looking for more high-yielding dividend ideas?
