Shares of Wolfspeed, Inc. (WOLF) jumped 8.2% to $14.62 in pre-market trading on Thursday, despite the company missing earnings estimates. Wolfspeed reported a fourth-quarter loss of 89 cents per share, falling short of the consensus estimate of 84 cents per share. Revenue for the quarter came in at $200.7 million, also missing the Street’s forecast. For the full fiscal year, Wolfspeed reported losses of $2.59 per share and revenue of $807.2 million, both below analyst expectations.
While Wolfspeed’s financial results were underwhelming, the stock’s pre-market surge suggests that investors may be optimistic about the company’s future prospects. The semiconductor industry is currently facing challenges, but Wolfspeed remains a key player in the market, particularly in the development of silicon carbide semiconductors, which are used in electric vehicles and other high-growth applications.
