Calix Inc. (CALX) shares plunged 6.21% in pre-market trading on Wednesday, extending a significant decline from the prior after-hours session.
The sharp drop follows the company's first-quarter 2026 earnings report, which showed adjusted earnings of $0.40 per share and revenue of $280 million, both exceeding analyst expectations. Despite the beat, investor sentiment turned negative due to emerging concerns over the company's future gross margin outlook.
Adding to the pressure, analysts at JP Morgan cut their price target on Calix stock to $65 from $70. The combination of margin worries and a reduced valuation target from a major financial institution appears to be driving the continued sell-off in the stock.
