Caseys General Stores

Casey’s General Stores shares lost about 8.7% in pre-market trading, even though adjusted earnings per share ($7.37) and revenue ($5.68 billion) beat expectations. Investors were disappointed by the quality of the growth: same-store sales rose only 3.2%, fuel volumes sold fell 0.3%, and operating costs increased 8% to $754.1 million. Management only reiterated guidance for fiscal 2027, which, together with a weak market environment and technical chart weakness, intensified selling pressure. » Altro su de.investing.com

Casey’s reported adjusted earnings per share of $7.37 (expectation $6.68) and revenue of $5.68 billion (expectation $5.57 billion), an increase of about 24% year over year. The stock plunged about 10.1% in after-hours trading because same-store sales growth slowed and management left the full-year forecast unchanged. Analysts’ cuts to price targets and concern that momentum from the record 2026 year is fading added to the selling pressure. » Altro su de.investing.com
