Pinterest, Inc. (NYSE: PINS)
Pinterest is down 8.87% in premarket trading after the company’s fourth-quarter revenue fell short of analysts’ expectations. Despite a 12% increase in sales to $981 million, it missed the forecasted $990.2 million. However, Pinterest achieved a record 498 million monthly users. The company’s focus on direct-response ads and shoppable content, including a new partnership with Google, underscores efforts to bolster revenue, particularly from international markets. For the current quarter, Pinterest anticipates revenue between $690 million and $705 million, slightly below analyst expectations.
Coinbase (Nasdaq: COIN)
Coinbase is up 6.79% in premarket trading as Wall Street expects a year-over-year increase in earnings for the quarter ending December 2023. The crypto exchange platform reports earnings next Thursday. This year the arrival of spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have failed to deliver gains in the crypto market and high interest rates are also weighing on the platform.
Expedia Group (Nasdaq: EXPE)
Expedia is down 14.47% in premarket trading despite posting a 37% jump in earnings. The drop could’ve come from its sudden CEO change. The travel website named Ariane Gorin as chief executive officer, succeeding Peter Kern, who had been in the role since 2020. Expedia reported gross bookings of $21.7 billion, missing analysts’ average estimate of $22 billion.
Those are the biggest stock movers for today.
Happy trading!
