AeroVironment surged 10.8% during the regular session after the U.S. Army announced a $400 million contract for its anti-drone laser systems, building on news of a strategic collaboration with Applied Intuition for uncrewed teaming. The stock hit an intraday high of $186.77, rebounding sharply from an early low of $168.74, and closed at $186.74. Q4 revenue soared 133.3% YoY to $641.6 million, but EPS loss of $0.481 widened 181.8% YoY, with net margin still negative at -3.8%. While the stock remains 55.3% below its 52-week high of $417.86, it has reclaimed its 20-day MA ($153.5) and 60-day MA ($164.9), though YTD is still down 27.1%. Post-market trading saw a slight pullback to $186.0.

AeroVironment surged sharply intraday, up 5.1% to $167.29 as of ET 11:39, driven by a strategic collaboration with Applied Intuition on uncrewed teaming and a $117.3 million U.S. Army production contract for the P550 UAS. The stock rebounded from a pre-market low of $159.226, reaching the intraday high of $167.29 on volume of ~376k shares, with a turnover rate of 1.56%. Q4 revenue surged 133% YoY to $641.6M, but net loss stood at $24.1M with EPS of -$0.48, turning negative YoY. The stock remains 60.17% below its 52-week high of $417.86, yet has climbed above both its MA20 ($149.65) and MA60 ($164.45), signaling improved short-term momentum. However, ongoing securities class action lawsuits pose a risk.

AeroVironment surged intraday, trading up 5.04% at $156.895 as of ET 10:44, driven by a strategic collaboration with Applied Intuition to advance uncrewed teaming technology and a $117.3 million U.S. Army production contract for the P550. Despite Q4 2026 revenue of $641.6 million surging 133.27% YoY, the company posted a net loss of $24.1 million, resulting in EPS of -$0.481 and a net profit margin of -3.76%. The stock remains 62.45% below its 52-week high of $417.86 and down 38.76% YTD, though it has reclaimed the 20-day moving average of $149.342 while still trailing the 60-day MA at $164.441. After touching an intraday low of $150.010 in pre-market, shares rallied on heavy volume. However, ongoing securities class-action lawsuits and persistent earnings losses pose headwinds.

AeroVironment plunged sharply during regular trading on Friday, primarily driven by profit-taking that erased early pre-market gains which had pushed the stock to an intraday high of 161.651. As of 10:05 AM ET, the stock traded at 150.699, down 5.06% from the prior close of 158.730, and breached its 20-day moving average of 153.234. The stock remains 63.94% below its 52-week high of 417.86 and has fallen 41.18% year-to-date. Despite a recent $117.3 million U.S. Army contract for P550 drones and Q4 FY2026 revenue surging 133.27% YoY to $641.6 million, a net loss of $24.1 million (vs. profit a year ago) and a negative P/E of -28.38x have weighed on sentiment. Though, the stock recovered to 159.500 in after-hours trading, suggesting some dip-buying interest.

AeroVironment surged about 5.0% to $157.89 as of 09:40 ET, driven by a $117.3 million U.S. Army production contract for the P550 drone system, reinforcing confidence in its autonomous systems segment. Pre-market trading ranged from $150.00 to $155.452, and the stock opened at $153.18 before hitting the intraday high, breaking above the 20-day MA of $152.491. However, it remains 62.21% below the 52-week high of $417.86 and is down 38.37% year-to-date. Q4 FY2026 revenue surged 133.27% YoY to $641.6 million, but a net loss of $24.1 million and EPS of -$0.481 (down 181.78% YoY) highlight persistent profitability challenges. The stock still trades below the 60-day MA of $168.129, suggesting cautious market sentiment on the sustainability of its turnaround.
