Stock futures were rising Thursday as investors parsed through a batch of economic data that has been released in recent days, including a delayed U.S. monthly jobs report.

These stocks were set to make moves in the premarket session Thursday:

Cisco Systems slumped 7.7% in premarket trading. The networking company reported better-than-expected fiscal second-quarter earnings and revenue but its guidance looked a little soft. For the fiscal year ending in July, Cisco expects revenue of $61.2 billion to $61.7 billion, below analysts' expectations of $63.9 billion.

AppLovin dropped 3.8% ahead of the opening bell. The advertising-technology company posted fourth-quarter earnings that beat Wall Street estimates as revenue jumped 66% to $1.66 billion. AppLovin's guidance for the current quarter beat expectations but the outlook represented a deceleration of revenue growth. Some investors may have been taking the opportunity to make a quick profit -- shares have risen 22% over the past five days, surging after a financial publisher retracted claims alleging that AppLovin had connections to transnational crime syndicates.

Micron Technology gained 3.2%, building on its 9.9% gain from the previous session. The rally on Wednesday came after the memory-chip maker's Chief Financial Officer Mark Murphy shrugged off concerns about fierce competition in the high-bandwidth memory chip space. Other memory stocks were rising. Flash memory product manufacturer Sandisk rose 7.2%, and disk-drive makers Western Digital and Seagate Technology climbed 3% and 2.6%, respectively.

Anheuser-Busch InBev climbed 2.6% in U.S. trading after the Budweiser brewer's fourth-quarter earnings beat expectations. The company said it was entering 2026 in a "position of strength," highlighting a number of sporting events, including this summer's FIFA World Cup. The stock, which trades under the ticker BUD, has risen more than 20% since the start of January as of Wednesday's close.

Equinix rallied 7.8%, making it the S&P 500's top performer in premarket trading. The data-center real estate investment trust missed Wall Street's fourth-quarter funds from operations per share target but issued strong annual revenue guidance, citing rising artificial-intelligence and cloud demand.

Fastly soared 41% after the IT infrastructure company beat Wall Street's fourth-quarter earnings target and issued solid guidance. William Blair analyst Jonathan Ho upgraded the stock to Outperform from Market Perform, citing the boost in traffic that Fastly's cloud platform is getting from large-language models and AI agents.

McDonald's gained 0.4% after the world's largest burger chain beat analysts' expectations for fourth-quarter earnings and revenue. Global comparable sales rose 5.7% over the period as the company's value-led strategies have helped it to offset the challenges facing the restaurant industry.

Rollins was the S&P 500's biggest decliner ahead of the opening bell, tumbling 15%. The pest control company's fourth-quarter earnings missed analysts' expectations as cooler weather and a challenging macroeconomic environment weighed on demand for its services.

Lithium producer Albemarle fell 2.5%. The company reported a fourth-quarter loss that narrowed from a year earlier as sales in the period rose 16% to $1.43 billion. Albemarle also said it would be idling the remaining operating train at its Kemerton lithium hydroxide processing plant in Western Australia.

Novocure, the Swiss biopharmaceutical company, jumped 222% after the Food and Drug Administration approved its Optune Pax treatment for pancreatic cancers in adults.

Earnings reports are expected Thursday from Applied Materials, Arista Networks, Coinbase Global, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Howmet Aerospace, Airbnb, Zoetis, Expedia, Rivian Automotive, Pinterest, DraftKings, Wynn Resorts, and Roku.
