On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Lennar (LEN) is edging higher after a miss on the homebuilder’s new orders outlook was tempered by better-than-expected gross margins, which RBC Capital Markets said should reassure investors. Analysts including Mike Dahl say Lennar’s results came in better than feared on gross margin percentage with orders modestly missing, while the guide for a flat quarter-on-quarter gross margin percentage also surprised on the upside. Lennar’s second-quarter adjusted earning per share missed consensus estimates with higher selling, general, and administrative expenses and lower average selling price, but gross margins in-line, write analysts including Matthew Bouley of Barclays.
- Sunrun (RUN) shares are sinking in the premarket. It comes as KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst Sophie Karp cut the recommendation on Sunrun Inc. to underweight from sector weight. Investors who followed Karp's recommendation received a 0% return in the past year, compared with a negative 27% return on the shares.
- Verve Therapeutics (VERV) is soaring following a Financial Times report that Eli Lilly is reportedly in advanced talks to buy the gene-editing startup for as much as $1.3 billion. Eli Lilly (LLY) is lower on M&A news. Eli Lilly would pay almost $1 billion upfront and another $300 million based on Verve reaching clinical milestones, according to FT.
- T-Mobile (TMUS) is sliding this morning after a report that SoftBank raised around $4.8 billion through a sale of 21.5 million T-Mobile US Inc. shares at $224 each. The deal represents a 3% discount to T-Mobile US's Monday closing price of $230.99 per share and is the biggest US share sale since February.
