Chewy Inc. A (CHWY) fell 8.77% to $21.23 in morning trading, marking a sharp reversal from its recent gains. The stock opened with a small gap down and quickly lost momentum, hitting a session low of $20.77 before stabilizing slightly. The move followed a volatile intraday pattern, with the stock trading below its 52-week range midpoint and underperforming against its recent price trend of a 2.1% rise over the last eight sessions.

What Happened

Chewy reported second-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $0.36, which met expectations but fell short of revenue estimates with net sales of $3.33 billion versus $3.361 billion. The company did raise its full-year revenue and profitability outlook, with Q3 sales guidance set at $3.323 billion to $3.358 billion and fiscal 2026 sales guidance raised to $13.46 billion to $13.57 billion. Despite these adjustments, the stock declined sharply, reflecting investor concerns over liquidity challenges and mixed earnings performance. The CEO, Sumit Singh, sold shares on August 3, while the company’s general counsel, Da-Wai Hu, sold on June 29. Meanwhile, Democratic Representative Ro Khanna made three purchases of CHWY between August 11 and 13, each in the $1,001 to $15,000 range.

What The Data Shows

The stock opened at $23.12, a 0.6% drop from the prior close, and traded at a volume of 2.2 million shares, 0.3 times the 3-month average, indicating relatively low participation. The price has declined from a recent high of $24.25 to a low of $20.77 in under two hours. The stock currently trades at a market cap of $9.7 billion, with a P/E ratio of 38.9 and a beta of 1.42. Over the last 90 days, insiders have sold $1.2 million worth of shares, while congressional insiders have made 12 purchases. The 52-week tape showed one fresh high and three fresh lows on September 9.

What To Watch

Chewy has no upcoming earnings date in the near term, but investors will continue to monitor coverage breadth and the company’s ability to meet its revised sales guidance.
