Shares of grocery store chain Sprouts Farmers Market (NASDAQ:SFM)
fell 25.4% in the morning session after the company reported third-quarter results that featured a revenue miss and weak guidance for the upcoming fourth quarter, which overshadowed an earnings beat. The specialty grocer's revenue came in at $2.2 billion, falling short of the consensus estimate of $2.23 billion. While its earnings per share of $1.22 topped expectations, investors focused on the weak forward-looking statements. The company guided for fourth-quarter same-store sales growth of just 1% at the midpoint, significantly below the 4.5% that analysts had anticipated. This weak outlook for a key retail metric signaled slowing momentum, sparking concern among investors.
Shares of diversified healthcare company CVS Health (NYSE:CVS)
fell 4.3% in the morning session after the company reported a significant $5.7 billion goodwill impairment charge related to its Health Care Delivery business, which overshadowed otherwise strong third-quarter results.
Shares of investment banking firm Moelis & Company (NYSE:MC) fell 2.6% in the morning session after the company reported third-quarter financial results that missed revenue expectations.

Shares of automotive parts company LKQ (NASDAQ:LKQ)
jumped 6.2% in the morning session after it reported third-quarter profits that significantly beat Wall Street's expectations, overshadowing a slight revenue miss and a cut to its full-year guidance.
Shares of financial services giant Prudential Financial (NYSE:PRU) jumped 2.7% in the morning session after the company reported third-quarter results that surpassed Wall Street's expectations for both profit and revenue. The financial services giant posted adjusted earnings of $4.26 per share, easily clearing analysts' consensus estimates of $3.72. This also represented an increase from the $3.48 reported in the same quarter last year. Revenue for the quarter came in at $16.24 billion, which was 14.4% ahead of forecasts, though it marked a 16.7% decline compared to the prior-year period. The results were supported by a significant beat on Net Premiums Earned, which came in at $8.69 billion against an expected $6.73 billion. However, it wasn't all positive, as the company's book value per share of $90.69 missed analyst estimates.
Shares of specialty insurance company Markel Group (NYSE:MKL) jumped 4.9% in the morning session after the company reported decent third-quarter results where key insurance metrics beat Wall Street's expectations, overshadowing a significant year-over-year decline in revenue. Total revenue for the quarter came in at $3.93 billion, which was in line with analyst forecasts but represented a 14.7% drop compared to the same period last year. Despite the top-line weakness, investors focused on the positives within its core insurance operations. Net premiums earned, a key measure of insurance sales, were $2.13 billion, beating estimates by 2.3%. More importantly, underwriting profitability saw a notable improvement. The company's combined ratio was 93%, which was better than the 95.4% analysts had anticipated and a 3.4 percentage point improvement from the prior year. A combined ratio below 100% indicates an underwriting profit, so a lower number is better, signaling greater operational efficiency.
Shares of aerospace and defense company Boeing (NYSE:BA)
fell 4.6% in the morning session after the company reported a significant third-quarter loss driven by a nearly $5 billion charge related to another delay in its 777X jet program. The planemaker posted a net loss of over $5.3 billion, with the loss per share coming in much deeper than analysts expected. The main reason for the poor results was a $4.9 billion pre-tax charge on the widebody 777X aircraft. Boeing announced it had pushed back the first delivery of the long-delayed jet to 2027, a full year later than its previous goal. This latest setback extended the program's delays to seven years and brought its total related charges to nearly $16 billion, weighing heavily on the quarterly results.
