Shares of HVAC and electrical contractor Comfort Systems (NYSE:FIX) jumped 11% in the pre-market session after the company reported stunning first-quarter 2025 results, which crushed earnings and backlog expectations, pointing to strong demand and solid execution in a typically soft seasonal period.

Shares of children’s apparel manufacturer Carter’s (NYSE:CRI) fell 11.5% in the afternoon session after the company reported weak first-quarter 2025 results, as a narrow beat on adjusted EPS and stronger-than-expected same-store sales were overshadowed by its suspension of forward guidance amid a CEO transition and tariff uncertainty. 

Shares of freight transportation and logistics provider Saia (NASDAQ:SAIA) fell 34.8% in the afternoon session after the company reported weak first-quarter 2025 results, with its revenue and EBITDA both falling short of analysts' estimates, reflecting a tough start to the year. The real story was the sharp sales and profit declines, driven by weather-related disruptions, and weaker-than-expected March shipments. While revenue ticked up 4%, that modest gain masked deeper issues: growth in tonnage and shipments was undermined by a drop in revenue per unit, especially when excluding fuel surcharges, which fell more than 5%. The lack of typical seasonal acceleration in March also weighed heavily on performance. Overall, this was a softer quarter.
