Corteva raises annual profit forecast after strong first-half performance
(Reuters) -U.S. agrichemicals company Corteva raised its annual adjusted profit forecast on Wednesday, following strong performance in the first half of the year. Reuters had reported in May that U.S. farmers have hit very few snags with corn planting this spring, and the foreseeable future is barrier-free. Corteva's net sales rose 5.6% to $6.46 billion during the second quarter, driven by higher sales in all its regions. The company is among the largest crop-protection product makers in the United States, competing with the likes of Syngenta and German firms BASF and Bayer in the agricultural chemicals sector. The company raised its forecast for full-year adjusted earnings to be between $3.00 to $3.20 per share, from a prior view of $2.70 to $2.95 per share.

Analysts tweak Super Micro stock price target after earnings
Analysts tweak Super Micro stock price target after earnings originally appeared on TheStreet. Fans of pirate stories are no doubt familiar with the expression "Davy Jones' Locker." The phrase comes from folk stories about a demonic figure who presides over souls who were lost at sea, but it's typically used to describe the deepest part of the ocean. 💵💰Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter 💰💵 Super Micro Computer () shares might not be that low, but they were seriously under water after the AI-server maker missed Wall Street's fourth-quarter-earnings expectations and fell short of first-quarter forecasts. The San Jose, Calif., company has been sailing in some pretty rough seas for a while now. Last August, short-seller Hindenburg Research released a report accusing Super Micro of what it called "glaring accounting red flags, evidence of undisclosed related-party transactions, sanctions violations, and customer troubles." A day later, Super Micro said it would delay filing its Securities and Exchange Commission Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30. Super Micro CEO cites revenue growth In October, Super Micro's then-auditor, Ernst & Young, resigned, citing governance and transparency concerns. Super Micro's special committee of the board later said it found 'no evidence of misconduct' after an investigation. In December, Super Micro was dropped from the Nasdaq 100 Index and in February, the company reported its financial results just in time to meet the Nasdaq's listing deadline. More Tech Stocks: Analyst who correctly predicted Rocket Lab stock surge resets forecast Verizon Q2 earnings report surprises with remarks on tax reform Fund manager who forecast Nvidia stock rally reboots outlook Super Micro CEO Charles Liang told analysts on Aug. 5 that the company's revenue surged 47% from a year earlier. "This growth reflects continued strong demand for our AI and green computing solutions," he said, "despite the six months cash-flow impact from the delayed filing of our fiscal year 2024 10-K and delayed revenue recognition from a major new large partner." Liang said earnings per share fell 50% from a year earlier, due primarily to the impact of the Trump administration's tariffs. "Although, we had taken measures to reduce the impact, and we will see their results," he said. During the call, Liang discussed the company's strategy for competing in the AI server market. "We can grow much quicker if we don't care about the gross margin and net margin," he said. "And that's why we introduced the DC PPS, data center billing box solution. That's a total solution to support the customer to build a data center quicker, better, and also save money, more reliable." "And we provide all the infrastructure (needed), including on-site deployment, networking, cabling," Liang added. "We are able to provide a better value to the customer, not just the price war." Analyst: Super Micro falling short of targets Super Micro's shares are up nearly 50% this year, but stock was off 20.5% at last check. Investment firms expressed disappointment with the company's earnings of America Securities analyst Ruplu Bhattacharya raised his price target on Super Micro to $37 from $35 and affirmed an underperform rating on the shares. Gross margins were hurt again this quarter from inventory reserves for older generation products, as some customers chose to wait for the next generation Nvidia () B300/GB300 GPUs, the analyst wrote. '[This] can be an issue in future quarters as well, as Nvidia and AMD will continue to launch new GPUs with step function changes in functionality," Bhattacharya said in a research note. "In our opinion, some customers who spend a lot on data center racks may elect to wait to get the best functionality for their money, if their schedule can allow for it. SMCI will thus need to manage working capital efficiently and ensure that it does not overbuild older generation racks." In addition, the analyst said, in the fiscal fourth quarter a major new customer had specification changes that delayed revenue recognition. Management also highlighted a constraint on capital that limited Super Micro's ability to scale production in that quarter The analyst's fiscal 2026 revenue forecasts moved higher to $33.1 billion, in line with the company's outlook, but Bhattacharya also sees competitor Dell Technologies () gaining market share in AI servers. JP Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee lowered the investment firm's price target on Super Micro to $45 from $46 and maintained a neutral rating on the shares, according to The Fly. .The company's fiscal Q4 results missed expectations due to capital constraints and customer indecision, Chatterjee said. The firm said the quarter was another example of Super Micro's execution falling short of management's tweak Super Micro stock price target after earnings first appeared on TheStreet on Aug 6, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Aug 6, 2025, where it first appeared.

Wayfair struggles to reverse concerning customer behavior
Wayfair struggles to reverse concerning customer behavior originally appeared on TheStreet. Wayfair () s continuing to spot a concerning shift in customer behavior, despite recently generating higher profits, and the company hopes a new tactic will reverse the trend. In Wayfair's second-quarter earnings report for 2025, it revealed that it generated $3.3 billion in total net revenue during the quarter, which is 5% higher than what it earned during the same quarter last year. 💵💰Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter 💰💵 The average order value during the quarter was $328, an increase from $313 in the second quarter of the company's total number of active customers decreased by 4.5% year-over-year. Also, only 80.7% of repeat customers placed orders during the second quarter, down from the 81.7% that placed orders during the same time period last year. Wayfair CEO sounds alarm on a major problem impacting sales During an earnings call on Aug. 4, Wayfair CEO Niraj Shah said demand for home goods has improved but remains weak, despite the company's prices remaining 'relatively consistent' with the previous quarter. 'If you look at the demand level in the category, you've got three years where it went down by kind of significant amount per year, and now you have it kind of flat to down,' said Shah. '... So that's not a strong environment.' Shah confirmed that low housing turnover rates and existing home sales in the U.S. are among the main factors contributing to weak demand.U.S. home prices have increased over the past few years, eating away at housing affordability. In the second quarter of 2025, the average home sales price reached $512,800, which is 38% higher than the average in the second quarter of 2020. In response to rising home prices, consumers have been avoiding purchasing new homes, which has impacted the home goods category. According to a weekly survey from the Mortgage Bankers Association, mortgage applications decreased by 3.9% from the previous week, while mortgage rates remained at almost 7%. Wayfair has a plan to win back customers To help shore up consumer demand, Wayfair is focused on improving the customer experience to keep shoppers away from rivals by further investing in technology and new programs. Specifically, it will focus on rolling out new artificial intelligence-powered features to make shopping more seamless for customers and inventory management easier for suppliers. Wayfair is also relying on its new paid loyalty program, Wayfair Rewards, which launched last year, to boost orders and traffic on its website.

Shah also said that Wayfair expects to see minimal price increases on its platform, despite the growing threat of tariffs (taxes companies pay to import goods from overseas), which may help attract and retain price-conscious customers. 'We have over 20,000 suppliers on our platform,' said Shah. 'And they are, to some degree, in competition with each other. So they know 'Hey, if I take an item, it's doing well, I raise its price, it could kill that item. I don't wanna do that.' So suppliers are pretty keen to figure out how to maintain those prices.' Consumers nationwide have been pulling back their spending in response to President Donald Trump's tariffs on multiple countries, which are expected to result in higher prices for everyday goods. According to a recent survey from market research company Numerator, 87% of consumers are worried about tariffs impacting their finances. Also, 80% of consumers are adjusting their finances or shopping habits in response to tariffs, including delaying nonessential or expensive purchases, buying fewer imported goods, searching for sales and coupons, and switching to shopping at lower-priced retailers and discount struggles to reverse concerning customer behavior first appeared on TheStreet on Aug 6, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Aug 6, 2025, where it first appeared.
