After‑Hours Market Moves – 1 July 2026
During after‑hours trading on 1 July 2026, four listed companies posted material price changes driven by earnings releases, financing news and a new offshore contract.
Nike Inc. (NKE) – The retailer’s shares slipped 4.5% after it reported fiscal fourth‑quarter earnings of $0.20 per share, topping analyst expectations by $0.08, on revenue of $11 billion. Management highlighted an “increasingly challenging operating environment where sell‑through remains challenged,” citing soft global consumer demand, and reaffirmed a focus on inventory management and cost efficiency rather than top‑line growth.
Bloom Energy Corp. (BE) – Bloom Energy’s stock jumped 11% when the company disclosed that its strategic financing partnership with Brookfield had been expanded from the originally announced $5 billion to $25 billion. The five‑fold increase, effective since late 2025, will fund large‑scale fuel‑cell power projects worldwide, with a particular emphasis on the energy‑intensive AI data‑center sector, cementing Bloom’s role as a leading non‑grid power provider for technology hyperscalers.
Constellation Brands Inc. (STZ) – Shares of the beverage group rose 3.7% after it delivered fiscal first‑quarter earnings that beat consensus by $0.18 per share, reporting revenue of $2.43 billion. The company also issued full‑year fiscal 2027 earnings guidance of $11.20 to $11.90 per share, indicating confidence that demand for its core imported‑beer portfolio will remain resilient despite broader macroeconomic headwinds.
Transocean Ltd. (RIG) – The offshore drilling contractor gained 2% following a major agreement with Equinor to deploy three harsh‑environment semisubmersible rigs on the Norwegian continental shelf. The contract, valued at over $1 billion across seven rig‑years, locks in base day rates of $399,000, with built‑in adjustments expected to lift effective day rates above $400,000 once operations commence, substantially expanding Transocean’s backlog.
