Lucid reports worse-than-expected Q1 loss, revenue

Luxury EVmaker Lucid reported its first-quarter earnings after markets closed on Tuesday. Its shares fell more than 2% after hours, following a 6.5% drop at close.

For Q1, Lucid reported:

An adjusted loss of $2.82 per share, compared to the $2.53 loss per share expected by Wall Street analysts polled by FactSet.
$282.5 million in revenue, versus the $358.5 million consensus.

Last month, Lucid announced that it produced 5,500 vehicles in Q1 and reaffirmed its full-year production guidance of between 25,000 to 27000 vehicles.

The company also highlighted its upcoming midsize SUV, with “expected pricing starting under $50,000.” The vehicle is expected to launch before the end of the year and compete with Rivian’s R2 and Tesla’s Model Y.

Q1 marks the first earnings report for new CEO Silvio Napoli, who took over for interim CEO Marc Winterhoff (who’d led the company for more than a year following Peter Rawlinson’s exit). Lucid recently announced an expansion of its robotaxi partnership with Uber, which is now its second-largest shareholder after Saudi Arabia’s PIF sovereign wealth fund.

Lucid shares have had a long stretch of poor performance amid various dilutive events and a broader contraction across the EV industry. The stock is down about 80% from a recent high in July 2025 and down about 40% year-to-date. As of Tuesday afternoon, the company’s roughly $2.1 billion market cap is less than a quarter of the approximately $9.5 billion that Saudi Arabia’s PIF has sunk into it.

Tempus AI drops after reporting better-than-expected Q1 results

Cancer diagnostics company and retail shareholder favorite Tempus AI reported better-than-expected Q1 adjusted EBITDA, earnings, and sales numbers late Tuesday, but the stock still slumped in the after-hours session.
The company reported:

Q1 revenue of $348.1 million vs. FactSet’s expectation of $345.4 million.
An adjusted loss per share of $0.13 vs. the $0.20 loss estimated.
Adjusted EBITDA of -$2.83 million vs. expectations for -$4.95 million, per FactSet.

Since going public nearly two years ago, Tempus has been a volatile stock that has both doubled — and cratered — on multiple occasions. That spectacle has at times captured the attention of retail traders who’ve tried to ride the waves.

The surf has been bad lately, with the shares down about 8% so far this year, and roughly 50% from the record high on October 8, 2025.

Advanced Micro Devices gains as CPU and GPU demand drive better than expected Q2 sales guidance

Advanced Micro Devices is powering higher in postmarket trading after reporting Q1 results that exceeded expectations across the board along with Q2 sales guidance higher than what the Street had pencilled in.

In Q1, the Lisa Su-run company reported:

Revenue: $10.2 billion (estimate: $9.9 billion, guidance for $9.5 billion to $10.1 billion)
Adjusted earnings per share of $1.37 (estimate: $1.28)

For Q2, management projected sales in a range of $10.9 billion to $11.5 billion (estimate: $10.5 billion) with an adjusted gross margin of about 56% (estimate: 55.3%).

Customer engagement for AMD’s AI chips and racks is “strengthening,” according to CEO and Chair Lisa Su, with “leading customer forecasts exceeding our initial expectations and a growing pipeline of large-scale deployments providing us with increasing visibility into our growth trajectory.”

The chip giant is not just the #2 in GPUs but also CPUs, which appear to be in shortage thanks to compute demands of AI agents.

AMD was up 80% from March 30 through Tuesday’s close, and its 250% gain over the past year has left Nvidia and Broadcom’s 70% and 110% rallies, respectively, in the dust.

Match Group earnings beat Wall Street's expectations

Tinder is so back.

Match Group rose more than 4% in post-market trading Tuesday after reporting Q1 earnings that beat Wall Street's expectations. The dating-app conglomerate reported:

Revenue of $864 million (compared to analyst estimates of $854.8 million, guidance for $850 to $860 million).
Adjusted EBITDA of $343 million (estimate: $317.3 million, guidance for $315 to $320 million).
Adjusted EPS of $0.68 (estimate: $0.61).
Number of current paying users = 13.5 million (estimate: 13.6 million).

The company has been seeking to diversify its user base. “Winning women is critical to us,” Rascoff told the Financial Times, speaking about the app Tinder in April. “[Achieving] gender parity is very challenging, but we absolutely need to do a better job of driving outcomes for women."

Though Match doesn't disclose gender breakdowns, market intelligence platform Sensor Tower estimates that 75% of Tinder’s users are men.

Match also sees queer men as part of this effort to grow its user base. In April, the dating app company invested 100 million in Sniffies, a competitor to Grindr.

In its press release on Tuesday, the company noted a turnaround with Gen Z on Tinder — the dating app that makes up the bulk of its revenue — "which is a clear signal that Tinder's ecosystem is strengthening."

With Tinder's revenue up 2% year-over-year, the company can breathe a sigh of relief as they won't have to lean as heavily on high-growth Hinge (up 28% year-over-year).

For Q2 2026, Match Group expects total revenue of $850 to $860 million, in line with analyst estimates of $856 million.

Meanwhile, the company’s competitor, Bumble, reported a 14% decrease in revenue year-over-year and 21% decrease in paying users in the first quarter on Tuesday.

Astera Labs soars after better-than-expected Q1 results and Q2 guidance

The hot run for Astera Labs is getting fresh life from a solid set of Q1 results along with Q2 sales guidance that exceeded even the most bullish analyst’s forecast.

For Q1, the firm reported:

Revenues of $308.4 million (estimate: $292.2 million, guidance for $286 million to $297 million)
Adjusted earnings per share of $0.61 (estimate: $0.54, guidance for $0.53 to $0.54).

For Q2, management anticipates:

Revenues of $355 million to $365 million (estimate: $310.3 million)
Adjusted earnings per share of $0.68 to $0.70 (estimate: $0.55).

Shares more than doubled since the S&P 500 bottomed on March 30 in a massive catch-up trade after investors spent a good chunk of 2026 bidding up networking companies with higher optics exposure. Its offerings are used in Nvidia’s AI platforms, and top customers include the chip designer, the four Magnificent 7 hyperscalers, Foxconn, and memory giant SK Hynix, per Bloomberg supply chain estimates.

“Astera Labs is a leader in high-speed connectivity, with its Aries Gen6 retimers the standard for PCIe 6 deployment across GPU and custom-ASIC platforms,” wrote Bloomberg Intelligence analysts Kunjan Sobhani and Oscar Hernandez Tejada ahead of this release. “Yet competitive positioning is increasingly defined by its expanding platform, particularly Scorpio switches and system-level connectivity, rather than retimers alone.”
