On June 12, Wolfspeed fell 9.97% in regular trading, trading at $40.4/share, with turnover of $39.8 million. The decline was primarily driven by continued selling pressure stemming from the company's recently filed registration statement for the potential sale of up to 24.07 million common shares.
The registration statement, filed after market close on June 9, covers shares representing approximately 49.8% of total outstanding shares, triggering significant dilution concerns among investors. The selling pressure has persisted across multiple sessions since the filing, with the stock declining from above $50 to current levels.
The broader semiconductor sector also weighed on shares, with Micron Technology down 2.5%, Marvell Technology down 1.35%, and NVIDIA down 0.48% during the same session. Wolfspeed had previously completed Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring, and its most recent quarter reported a net loss of $119.9 million with a GAAP gross margin of -27%, indicating fundamentals remain in a recovery phase with limited support for the share price.
