US Equity Snapshot
Lowe's (LOW), the second-largest home improvement retailer in the US, surged before hours after reporting first quarter adjusted EPS up 45% to 1.77 dollar. Comparable sales jumped 11.2%. Both figures beat estimates. Also, the company withdraws full year financial guidance.
Target (TGT), the retailer, unveiled first quarter comparable sales up 10.8% vs a 4.8% increase for the same period of last year. Digital sales jumped but the company saw also an increase in labor expenses and fewer sales of high-margin items.
Moderna (MRNA) lost ground in extended trading after STAT reported that vaccine experts say the biotech "didn’t produce data critical to assessing Covid-19 vaccine".
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), the healthcare giant, announced the discontinuation of talc-based Johnson’s Baby Powder in U.S. and Canada.
Urban Outfitters (URBN), the clothing retailer, posted first quarter loss of 138.4 million dollars, or 1.41 dollar a share, vs a net income of 32.6 million dollars, or 0.31 dollar a share, a year earlier. Sales fell to 588.5 million dollars from 864.4 million dollars a year ago. Those figures missed estimates. The company warned second quarter comparable sales could decrease more than 60%.
