Market Movers: Cracker Barrel Gains as Calix Slumps
A mixed session in after-hours trading saw Cracker Barrel climb nearly 5% following a strategic divestiture, while Calix shares tumbled 13% after the networking company warned that rising memory costs are poised to compress its profit margins throughout the current fiscal quarter.
In contrast, Calix struggled to maintain its footing as management signaled caution regarding near-term profitability. The resulting sell-off dragged the share price down to $33.55. Meanwhile, Park Aerospace bucked the volatility, reporting a strong start to the fiscal year with both revenue and profit trending upward. The company’s performance bolstered investor confidence, driving its stock price to $35.42 by the close of the extended session.
