CELH gapped down in regular trading and slid throughout the session, closing 5.06% lower at $28.065, following Deutsche Bank's downgrade from Buy to Hold and a steep 57.5% YoY drop in Q2 net profit to $36.42 million, with net margin narrowing to 6.76%. The intraday low of $28.07 sits 57.95% below the 52-week high of $66.74, and the stock has shed 41.23% year-to-date, trading below both the 20-day MA ($31.42) and 60-day MA ($30.03). A modest post-market bounce to $29.60 occurred, though on thin volume, suggesting limited near-term recovery momentum.
Celsius Holdings opened lower and extended losses during regular trading, down ~5% as of ET 09:33, primarily driven by Deutsche Bank downgrading the stock to 'hold' from 'buy'. The pre-market session had already softened from $33.77, with the intraday low hitting $33.47 and the full-day range spanning $33.05 to $34.80, an amplitude of ~5.3%. Q2 revenue came in at $818 million, up 10.6% YoY, but net income plunged 57.5% to $36.4 million, dragging net margin down to 6.8% from 14.1% in Q1. At $33.47, the stock is ~50% below its 52-week high of $66.74, trades below both the 20-day MA ($30.28) and 60-day MA ($29.73), with a YTD decline of 29.9%. Meanwhile, the company continues to invest in brand partnerships, including a tie-up with SoulCycle and new college athlete endorsements.
Celsius Holdings surged during regular trading, reaching $31.42 by 10:08 ET, up approximately 5.1%, driven by news that the Rockstar Energy founder is building a stake and seeking the CEO role. After a pre-market range of $29.50-$30.15, the stock opened and rallied to its intraday high of $31.42, a 6.5% rebound from the pre-market low. Q2 2026 revenue grew 10.64% YoY to $817.9 million, but net profit plunged 57.5% to $36.4 million, with net margin falling to 6.76% and EPS of $0.14 down 56.95% YoY. The stock remains 52.92% below its 52-week high of $66.74, though it trades above both its 20-day MA ($28.52) and 60-day MA ($29.45), with a YTD decline of 34.2%. However, Piper Sandler recently lowered its price target on CELH, and a securities investigation notice continues to weigh on sentiment.
CELH gapped down sharply in pre-market trading and continued to weaken intraday, hitting a session low of 26.10, pressured by the earlier news on August 7 that Rockstar Energy founder Jeff Grammer built a $300 million activist stake and sought CEO replacement, which amplified the selling from the previous day when the stock plunged 18% after Q2 earnings missed revenue estimates and net profit tumbled 57.5% YoY; the current price of 26.33 is down over 60% from its 52-week high of 66.74 and below the 20-day MA of 28.50, though the stock found some support near the pre-market low of 26.05.
CELH.US staged a low-open rally during regular trading, reaching $24.906 by 09:32 ET, up ~4.8% from the prior close of $23.770, after dipping to $23.870 in pre-market. The rebound was driven by a relief rally following the August 6 Q2 earnings release: revenue of $817.9M (+10.6% YoY) missed estimates, net profit plunged 60% to $36.4M, net margin narrowed to 6.8% from 14.1% in Q1, and EPS of $0.14 dropped 59.6% YoY. The flagship Celsius brand saw an 11.7% sales decline, weighing on the overall picture. The stock remains 62.7% below its 52-week high of $66.74, down 47.8% YTD, and trades below its MA20 ($28.53) and MA60 ($29.44), suggesting a weak technical posture. However, post-market volume of 527K shares indicates some dip-buying interest.
