GoPro, Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRO) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 12% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This reverses the recent trend for the company—as the stock is now down 4.9% in the past one-month time frame.
The stock gained after GoPro announced that its revenues and gross margin for the third quarter of 2017 are likely to be at the higher end of their previously announced ranges of $290-$310 million and 36%-38% respectively.
The company has seen four positive estimate revisions in the past few months, while its Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current quarter has also moved higher over the past few months, suggesting that more solid trading could be ahead for GoPro. So make sure to keep an eye on this stock going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
