Shares of Symbotic jumped after the company said it entered into commercial agreements with Walmart de Mexico y Centroamerica to implement a warehouse automation system in two of its locations near Mexico City.

The stock was up 20% to $27.82 on Thursday. Shares have dropped 46% since the beginning of the year.

The AI-enabled robotics technology company didn't disclose financial details of the deal, but said the agreements in Mexico represent a meaningful progress for its strategic international expansion plans.

Symbotic established a new business entity, Symbotic Mexico, to serve customers in the country and tap into the growing global demand for warehouse automation.
