SolarEdge Technologies stock falls$XAU
after disappointing fourth-quarter guidance
SolarEdge Technologies shares fell 8.2% in premarket trading to $30.17 after the company announced its third-quarter 2026 results before the market opened and issued fourth-quarter revenue guidance that fell well short of Wall Street expectations. The company forecast fourth-quarter revenue of $245 million to $275 million, compared with analysts’ estimate of approximately $317.70 million, signaling a notable slowdown in demand as the year draws to a close.
On the positive side, the earnings report included a bright spot: adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.29, comfortably exceeding analysts’ estimate of $0.03. The company also recorded its fifth consecutive quarter of positive free cash flow. However, investors focused on third-quarter revenue of $326.1 million, which missed expectations, as well as the fact that third-quarter margins benefited from a one-time $36 million tariff-related benefit that will not recur in the fourth quarter, making the outlook for future profitability more challenging. CEO Shuki Nir acknowledged that the company is taking “decisive steps to reduce costs” amid “near-term market uncertainty” and “softening demand.”
