Pre-Market Movers

Lowe’s – Lowe’s shares added 1.6% in the premarket after the home improvement retailer beat top and bottom-line estimates for the fourth quarter.

Tenneco – The automotive components maker agreed to be acquired by affiliates of Apollo Global Management (APO) for $20 per share in cash, compared with Tenneco’s Tuesday close of $9.98 per share. The deal is expected to close during the second half of this year. Tenneco soared 91.7% in premarket action.

Tupperware – The maker of home storage products saw its shares slump 3% in the premarket following its quarterly earnings report. Tupperware’s revenue was above Street forecasts, but its adjusted profit of 38 cents per share missed estimates by 14 cents amid what the company called “challenging operating conditions.” Tupperware noted it saw both top and bottom-line growth in 2021 despite those challenges.

Quest Diagnostics – The medical lab operator’s stock was down 2.1% in the premarket after UBS downgraded it to “neutral” from “buy.” UBS cited risk to meeting management’s earnings target for fiscal 2023, given the company’s level of investment in growth.

Kodiak Sciences – The drugmaker said a mid-to-late stage trial of its experimental eye drug failed to show it was not inferior to Regeneron’s (REGN) Eylea macular degeneration treatment. Kodiak tumbled 69.2% in premarket trading while Regeneron jumped 4.5%.
