Earnings live: Airbnb beats, DoorDash stock pops, Lyft slides after Uber set the bar high
Second quarter earnings season is in full swing, and the results have been largely positive so far, with more positive surprises than negative ones. Companies had a lower bar to clear coming into the quarter, as analysts tempered their expectations amid President Trump's tariffs, stocks' lofty valuations, and uncertainty about the health of the US economy. This week, investors hear from Tyson (TSN), AMD (AMD), Snap (SNAP), McDonald's (MCD), Disney (DIS), Uber (UBER), Lyft (LYFT), Palantir (PLTR), and more when they report results. Data from FactSet published Friday showed that with 66% of the index having reported results, analysts expect S&P 500 companies to report a 10.3% jump in earnings per share during the second quarter. Heading into the quarter, analysts expected S&P 500 earnings to rise 5% in Q2, which would mark the slowest pace of earnings growth since the fourth quarter of 2023. Here are the latest updates from corporate America. Lyft stock slides after results failed to impress Lyft (LYFT) stock slid after hours after the ride-hailing company missed second quarter revenue estimates on Wednesday amid heightened competition with Uber (UBER) and weakening demand. However, Lyft raised its guidance for gross bookings in the current quarter to between $4.65 billion and $4.80 billion, well above estimates of $4.59 billion. Here are Lyft's top and bottom line results for the quarter, compared to S&P Global Market Intelligence consensus estimates: Earlier in the day, rival Uber reported it saw trips surge 18% year over year, putting pressure on Lyft to report impressive results. While Uber stock popped earlier in the day, it closed about 0.2% lower on the day. Reuters reports: Read more here. Airbnb earnings top estimates, company announces $6 billion in stock buybacks Airbnb (ABNB) stock wavered in after-hours trading after better-than-expected earnings, a slight guidance lift, and a new $6 billion stock buyback program. The company said it saw stable travel demand and booking lead times in the second quarter despite global economic uncertainty. Net income grew 16% year over year to $642 million, the company reported, with earnings per share coming in at $1.03 versus $0.94 estimated. Revenue rose 13% year over year, reaching $3.1 billion, above estimates for $3.02 billion. For the third quarter, Airbnb expects revenue between $4.02 billion and $4.10 billion, the midpoint of which is higher than analysts' average estimate of $4.05 billion. Airbnb also announced a new stock buyback program to purchase up to an additional $6 billion of Class A common stock. Read more here. DoorDash stock pops after earnings beat across all metrics as consumers paid up for convenience DoorDash (DASH) reported second quarter results that beat on both the top and bottom lines on Wednesday, with its orders also rising more than forecast. Earnings per share came in at $0.65, $0.20 more than the Street had forecast. Adjusted EBITDA reached $655 million in the quarter. Revenue grew 25% year over year to $3.28 billion, compared to the $3.17 billion the Street predicted. Total orders, which means all orders through its marketplaces and commerce platform, also jumped 20% to 761 million in the quarter. That's more than the 749 million analysts had anticipated. Shares rose as much as 3% after the results. Marketplace GOV, which is the total dollar value of transactions completed through the marketplace, including taxes, tips, and fees related to DashPass and its international platform Wolt+, clocked in at $24.2 billion compared to the expected $23.6 billion. Year to date, the stock has been on a tear, up more than 50%, compared to the S&P 500's (^GSPC) 8% gain. The company said total orders were driven by strength in the US restaurant category, as its DashPass membership members ordered more frequently. It added that it continues to "improve the value proposition" for its DashPass membership. DoorDash expects marketplace GOV in the current quarter to come in between $24.2 billion and $24.7 billion. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to fall between $680 million and$780 million in its third quarter. Shopify stock soars on upbeat forecast, 31% revenue growth Shopify (SHOP) stock surged 18% before the opening bell after the commerce technology company provided an upbeat forecast and positive results. Gross profit rose to $1.3 billion in the quarter, while revenue reached $2.68 billion, compared to estimates of $2.54 billion.

Yum Brands stock falls amid underperformance in the US Yum Brands (YUM) stock fell over 3% on Tuesday after an earnings miss and weaker-than-expected sales in the US amid a tougher consumer environment. "Even with a solid overall top line performance, we have opportunities to improve performance in underperforming regions such as the US and parts of Europe, where challenges stem from gaps in value perception, inconsistent consumer experience, and innovation that has not fully resonated with consumers," Yum Brands CEO David Gibbs said on the earnings call.

Caterpillar warns of up to $1.5 billion tariff hit, profit misses on weak demand Caterpillar (CAT) is expecting a bigger hit from tariffs in the third quarter and the rest of 2025 than it initially projected, as President Trump's tariffs hit the industrial and manufacturing segment especially hard. The company flagged a tariff impact of $400 million to $500 million in the third quarter and $1.5 billion hit from costs tied to US tariffs in 2025. Caterpillar was able to offset some of the higher tariff costs; however, higher interest rates and a slowdown in US construction activity led to a pullback in demand for its products. The heavy machinery manufacturer reported adjusted earnings per share of $4.72 on revenue of $16.6 billion. Analysts were expecting adjusted EPS of $4.90 on revenue of $16.3 billion, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. Caterpillar stock fell less than 1% in premarket trading.

Caterpillar warns of up to $1.5 billion tariff hit, profit misses on weak demand Caterpillar (CAT) is expecting a bigger hit from tariffs in the third quarter and the rest of 2025 than it initially projected, as President Trump's tariffs hit the industrial and manufacturing segment especially hard. The company flagged a tariff impact of $400 million to $500 million in the third quarter and $1.5 billion hit from costs tied to US tariffs in 2025. Caterpillar was able to offset some of the higher tariff costs; however, higher interest rates and a slowdown in US construction activity led to a pullback in demand for its products. The heavy machinery manufacturer reported adjusted earnings per share of $4.72 on revenue of $16.6 billion. Analysts were expecting adjusted EPS of $4.90 on revenue of $16.3 billion, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. Caterpillar stock fell less than 1% in premarket trading.

Trump once hailed mRNA vaccines as a 'medical miracle.' Now RFK Jr. is halting advancement
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump hailed as a 'medical miracle' the mRNA vaccines developed to combat the deadly COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Now, his health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is effectively halting the vaccine technology's advancement. Kennedy announced Tuesday that the federal government is canceling $500 million worth of mRNA research development contracts, putting an end to U.S.-backed hopes for the vaccine technology to prevent future pandemics, treat cancer or prevent flu infections. It's a sharp pivot from how Trump and top officials described the technology during his first term. Here's a look at what Trump and some of his closest advisers have said about mRNA vaccines that were credited with slowing the pandemic five years ago. Robert Redfield, Trump's director of the Centers for Disease Control 'A COVID-19 vaccine is the thing that will get Americans back to normal everyday life,' said Redfield, in a Sept. 16, 2020, statement. Americans were still donning face masks as one of the few ways of protecting themselves from a virus that had killed nearly 200,000 in just over six months. Redfield promised that the new vaccines — developed for the first time using mRNA technology — would offer a return to normalcy. Trump wanted to make sure Biden didn't get credit 'Don't let Joe Biden take credit for the vaccines ... because the vaccines were me, and I pushed people harder than they've ever been pushed before .. The vaccines are — there are those that say it's one of the greatest things. It's a medical miracle.' Trump said on Nov. 26, 2020, during a news conference in the White House. Weeks earlier, Trump had lost the election in a bitter race against Democrat Joe Biden. As the Republican grappled with leaving Washington and continued to plan for the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines, he reminded reporters that he oversaw the development of the new shots. 'They say it's somewhat of a miracle and I think that's true,' Trump said on Dec. 8, 2020, during a speech at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. The event celebrated 'Operation Warp Speed," the government-funded project that accelerated vaccine development with pharmaceutical companies. Trump was promoting the shots as the government prepared to offer them to frontline health workers. Trump's first-term health secretary, Alex Azar 'It's clear that many Americans are learning these vaccines are safe and extraordinarily effective,' Azar said on Dec. 16, 2020, at a news conference. The government was shipping out mRNA vaccines to states, preparing to distributed it to the masses. Azar noted that a vast majority of Americans — between 70% to 80%, according to polls — intended to get the new COVID-19 vaccine that would be available to the public in the coming months. Gen. Gusave Perna, Trump's chief operating officer for pandemic response 'It takes somewhere between five and 10 years to put a vaccine on the street. Look what we did. Now, that's because of the great work of the scientists who had done the research on mRNA vaccines and others because of industry working on this, they just didn't wake up one day and start working on it,' Perna said during a podcast interview that aired on May 9, 2023. Reflecting in an interview about his time overseeing 'Operation Warp Speed,' Perna credited the mRNA technology with the government's ability to get shots in arms mere months after the pandemic started claiming lives in the U.S. in 2020. Trump supporters boo his vaccine accomplishments 'Take credit because we saved tens of millions of lives. Take credit. Don't let them take that away from you,' Trump said on Dec. 19, 2021 during a live interview with former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly. Daily COVID-19 deaths had ticked down to 1,500 compared to 3,000 from a year earlier after Americans began receiving their first doses of the mRNA vaccines. Trump revealed to O'Reilly and the audience that he had just gotten a COVID-19 booster. The crowd booed. Amanda Seitz, The Associated Press

Elf Beauty tops quarterly estimates on resilient demand for affordable lipsticks and skincare
(Reuters) -Elf Beauty beat first-quarter sales and profit estimates on Wednesday, fueled by resilient demand for its affordable products including lip oils and blush tints at retailers and online channels, despite broader retail slowdown. Shares of the company were up about 5% after the bell. The beauty retailer known for its vegan lip oils — available at drugstores and supermarkets including Walgreens, Target as well as Dollar Tree — has been able to resonate with millennial and Gen Z shoppers, who are often on the hunt for trendy makeup and skincare products. This, in turn, has been benefiting sales growth at Elf — short for eyes, lips and face — offering products priced as low as $2 at U.S. retailers including Walmart and Ulta Beauty. Meanwhile, luxury beauty makers such as Estee Lauder have been struggling to revive demand and the Trump administration's unpredictable trade policy has disrupted business operations worldwide. The company continues to refrain from providing an annual forecast owing to tariff-related uncertainty. Elf, which acquired Hailey Bieber's makeup brand Rhode, increased product prices by $1 across categories starting August 1 to counter trade-related costs, similar to broader industry peers. The company, which has reduced its production from China to "little less" than 75% from about 100% back in 2019, has also been optimizing its supply chain and diversifying its business to be able to address tariff-related headwinds, CEO Tarang Amin told Reuters on Wednesday. The company's quarterly revenue of $353.7 million beat estimates of $350.3 million, as per data compiled by LSEG. On an adjusted basis, the company's earnings came in at 89 cents per share, compared with analysts' estimates of 84 cents per share.
