Micron — The chipmaker’s stock experienced a 3.4% decline in premarket trading due to a lower-than-expected earnings forecast. Micron projects a first-quarter loss of $1.07 per share, on a non-GAAP basis, while analysts surveyed by LSEG predicted a loss of 95 cents. However, the company’s fiscal fourth-quarter performance exceeded expectations with a smaller-than-anticipated loss and higher revenue.

CarMax — Shares plummeted by nearly 12% due to a decline in fiscal second-quarter earnings compared to the previous year, attributed to weakening demand for used cars.

Peloton — Shares surged by nearly 14% in premarket trading after Peloton and Lululemon announced their five-year strategic partnership.

DigitalBridge — Shares of the digital infrastructure company surged by 7.7% after JPMorgan upgraded its rating from neutral to overweight. The upgrade was based on JPMorgan’s assessment that DigitalBridge has successfully completed its business transformation.

Concentrix reported adjusted earnings of $2.71 per share on revenue of $1.63 billion, while analysts estimated earnings of $2.85 per share and revenue of $1.64 billion.
