On May 21, e.l.f. Beauty rose 9.23% in pre-market trading, trading at $54.61/share, with trading volume of approximately $335,200.
The rally was driven by the company's fiscal fourth-quarter earnings release. e.l.f. Beauty reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.32, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $0.29 by 10.34%. Quarterly revenue came in at $449.3 million, surpassing expectations of $422.9 million, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 29%. However, the company simultaneously issued fiscal year 2027 guidance of $3.27–$3.32 in adjusted EPS, below the FactSet consensus estimate of $3.61. Despite the cautious forward outlook, the strong double-beat on both top and bottom lines for the quarter lifted pre-market sentiment.
