OlenaMykhaylova ADMA Biologics ( ADMA ) declined more than 17% on Thursday after the company lowered its full-year outlook and withdrew its long-term guidance, citing “uncertainty in the competitive landscape”. The stock was trading 17.7% lower at $8.30 during midday trading. The company reported a mixed Q1 print with earnings of $0.19 per share coming in line with analysts’ consensus but revenue of $114.5M missing estimates. The New Jersey-based firm now sees FY26 revenue in the range of $530 million to $560 million (vs. consensus of $629.1M), down from $635 million earlier. It has projected adjusted net income in the range of $170 million to $200 million, down from $255 million. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $265 million and $300 million compared to $360 million earlier. “This outlook reflects continued ASCENIV growth, partially offset by the expectation of sustained competitive pressure in the standard IG space over the course of 2026,” CFO P. Terence Kohler said. “These expectations reflect not only the reduced revenue expectations in the year but also an expected step-up in operating expense, primarily driven by R&D spend related to our SG-001 program, but also a step-up in SG&A as we continue to invest in our commercial operations,” he added. The biotech firm saw ASCENIV revenue grow 28% Y/Y to $97.5 million while BIVIGAM revenue declined 54% Y/Y to $15.4 million. Revenue from the sale of intermediates and other products also declined year-over-year by $3.0 million, the company said. The stock has had a disappointing run in the year so far, declining more than 54% year-to-date. More on ADMA Biologics ADMA Biologics, Inc.

Gray Media ( GTN ) shares plunged nearly 14% to around $4.78 after the broadcaster posted a wider-than-expected Q1 FY26 loss, even as revenue came in broadly in line. The company reported Q1 GAAP EPS of -$0.34, missing estimates by $0.06, while revenue stood at $768M, down 1.8% YoY. The bigger concern for investors was profitability, as Gray Media’s net loss widened to $20M from a $9M loss a year ago, while its leverage ratio climbed to 5.94x. Still, there were some bright spots inside the report. Core advertising revenue rose 2% YoY to $352M, beating management’s earlier guidance for roughly flat growth. Executive Chairman and CEO Hilton Howell Jr. said political revenue also landed at the high end of expectations. On the other hand, retransmission consent revenue fell to $339M from $379M last year, hurt by subscriber declines, a station transition in Atlanta, and a distribution dispute that has now been resolved. The company also continued reducing debt, repaying its remaining 2026 notes and a $10M term loan. It ended March with $259M in cash and maintained its $0.08 quarterly dividend , offering a forward yield of 5.79%. Gray Media also issued Q2 FY26 guidance and expects key financial results to improve sequentially, supported by contributions from recently acquired stations. However, it added that its guidance excludes pending acquisitions that have not yet closed. Despite the post-earnings selloff, Quant, SA analysts, and Wall Street analysts still rate the stock a “Buy.” Gray Media's shares are down 2.27% YTD, versus a 7.59% gain for the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) .

mapo/iStock via Getty Images Market and portfolio review The quarter was characterized by increased volatility driven by a combination of geopolitical developments and evolving expectations around AI. Escalating tensions in the Middle East and the associated rise in oil prices added to macro uncertainty and shifting interest rate expectations, while ongoing debate around AI's long-term implications — particularly disruption risks — continued to influence market leadership. Performance across the cap spectrum was mixed. Despite a sharp selloff in March, smaller-cap stocks maintained their relative outperformance year to date, with the Russell 2000 up 0.89% versus a 4.18% decline for the Russell 1000. The small-mid segment was the strongest, with the Russell 2500 returning 2.04% for the quarter. From a sector perspective, energy was far and away the best-performing sector in Q1, advancing 39% in the quarter as oil prices rose sharply due to supply concerns following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz; consumer staples followed in a distant second (+6.7%). Financials was the weakest sector (-6.1%), pressured by macro and interest rate uncertainty as well as fear about potential AI-disruption impacting financial and consulting services. Consumer discretionary (-5.3%) also lagged, as investors grew increasingly cautious on the consumer amid rising energy costs and potential inflationary pressures. Our relative underperformance in the quarter stemmed from three primary areas: AI-related stocks (both what we own and don't own), consumer and housing-related concerns, and health care stock selection. Many companies within the Russell 2500 Index are benefitting from substantial dollars being spent on AI-related capital spending, with several stocks including SanDisk (+168%), Lumentum Holdings (+91%) and Comfort Systems (+48%), increased materially in Q1 (notably, this dynamic is more impactful in the Russell 2500 Value Index). While we do have exposure to this theme through ...
