WOLF stock is down more than 11% in intraday trade as of 5:15 PM ET, falling to $25.85 after the company reported a wider-than-expected loss and issued flat Q1 revenue guidance. The stock opened at $31.30, a 0.5% gap down from the prior close, and has since traded in a wide range amid heavy volume. The earnings miss and negative gross margin have overshadowed Wolfspeed’s AI-related growth prospects.
What Happened
Wolfspeed reported Q4 FY2026 revenue of $149.6 million, below the $224.475 million estimate, and adjusted EPS of $(2.26), which beat the $(2.45) estimate. However, the company posted a negative gross margin and a wider-than-expected loss, which led to a sharp decline in the stock. The firm also guided for Q1 FY2027 revenue of $140 million to $160 million, roughly matching the $150.4 million market estimate but indicating no significant growth. The CEO highlighted AI and data center growth as tailwinds but did not offset concerns over profitability.
What The Data Shows
The stock has traded in a volatile range today, peaking at $32.10 and falling to a session low of $25.85. Volume has reached 6.8 million shares, equal to the 3-month daily average. Options activity shows $40.4 million in call premiums versus $10.1 million in puts, with the largest single print at $11.5 million. The stock has printed 35 fresh 52-week lows on August 19 and has declined 8.2% over the past 8 sessions. With a market cap of $1.8 billion, Wolfspeed remains unprofitable, posting a TTM net margin of -72.9% and a TTM revenue decline of 6.4%.
What To Watch
Wolfspeed’s Q1 FY2027 results and continued AI-related revenue momentum will be key to monitor. The company’s ability to improve gross margin and achieve profitability remains a central focus for investors.
