Why Is Apogee (APOG) Stock Rocketing Higher Today

APOG Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of architectural products company Apogee (NASDAQ: APOG) jumped 12% in the morning session after the company reported first-quarter results that beat analyst expectations and raised its full-year guidance for both sales and earnings. Apogee now expects full-year adjusted earnings per share to be between $3.80 and $4.20, up from its previous estimate and ahead of Wall Street's consensus of $3.72. The company also lifted its sales forecast to a range of $1.40 billion to $1.44 billion. First-quarter revenue saw a 4.6% year-over-year increase to $346.6 million, driven in part by the recent acquisition of UW Solutions. 

While the company faced headwinds from tariffs and lower volumes in its architectural glass segment, CEO Ty R. Silberhorn expressed confidence in a stronger second-half performance. The positive guidance suggests that Apogee's strategic initiatives, including the UW Solutions integration and other investments, are expected to expand its market reach and drive future growth.

What The Market Is Telling Us

Apogee’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 11 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Apogee and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 6 months ago when the stock dropped 17% on the news that the company reported underwhelming calendar fourth-quarter 2024 results. Sales were flat year on year, and this weighed on profits as operating margin fell. In addition, its full-year EPS guidance slightly missed, suggesting the weakness might be more pronounced in the coming quarters. Overall, we think this was a challenging quarter.

Apogee is down 41.1% since the beginning of the year, and at $41.88 per share, it is trading 52% below its 52-week high of $87.22 from November 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Apogee’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,780.
