On August 5, KIOXIA HLDGS CORP fell 3.16% in pre-market trading, trading at $34.36/share, with turnover of $2.2507 million.
On the news front, despite the company recently announcing an 800 billion yen share buyback plan and a 1-for-3 stock split that had driven consecutive gains, concerns over earnings missing expectations have now surfaced. Specifically, KIOXIA reported first fiscal quarter operating profit of 1.27 trillion yen, below the market consensus of 1.37 trillion yen, while net income attributable to shareholders came in at 842.17 billion yen, also missing the expected 973.81 billion yen.
Additionally, the broader semiconductor sector faced widespread selling pressure, with Advanced Micro Devices down 7.50%, Intel down 2.72%, and Micron Technology down 2.15%, further dragging on the stock's pullback.
