On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Tesla (TSLA) backed away from an earlier view for 2025 sales growth and pledged to revisit its outlook next quarter, a sign that tariffs, an aging vehicle lineup and the backlash against Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk are having an impact on the electric-vehicle maker. The company on Tuesday reported adjusted earnings of 27 cents per share for the first quarter, below the average analyst estimate. Tesla omitted an earlier prediction that sales would return to growth for the full year, saying instead that it’s “making prudent investments that will set up” the vehicle business for growth. That will depend on factors including production increases and the “broader macroeconomic environment.” Shares in the EV maker were little changed after the earnings release.

- Equifax (EFX) shares rose the most since November 2022 on the news the credit-reporting agency's first-quarter profit beat estimates. This was despite the Atlanta-based firm declined to raise its guidance, citing the tariff-induced uncertainty in the economy and falling consumer confidence. “Given the strength in the first quarter and our current run rates in key verticals, we would normally be increasing our 2025 revenue and adjusted EPS guidance” Chief Executive Officer Mark Begor said on a call with analysts.

- Northrop Grumman (NOC) reported first-quarter profit that missed analysts’ expectations and cut its earnings forecast for the year as costs mounted for its next-generation B-21 stealth bomber. The shares fell the most since the early days of the pandemic on Tuesday, after Northrop said per-share profit declined by 47% in the first quarter, primarily due to new loss provisions tied to the B-21. Northrop, which for 2023 took a nearly $1.6 billion pretax charge on the program, added $477 million to the tally, as manufacturing costs rose and the company invested in its production systems to speed the program’s ramp-up.
