Delta Rises on Profit Guidance; EasyJet Moves on Apollo Bid | Stock Movers
On this episode of Stock Movers: - Delta (DAL) shares are higher after it reaffirmed its full-year profit guidance, citing strong demand for premium, corporate and international travel that helped offset the highest quarterly fuel expense in its history. The airline earned an adjusted $1.56 a share in the second quarter, topping analysts' estimates, with revenue rising 14% from a year earlier and capacity increasing just 1%. - EasyJet (EZJ) shares are moving on news it received a fresh offer from Apollo Global Management for 715 pence a share, beating a rival proposal from Castlelake. EasyJet is "no longer minded to recommend the Castlelake proposal" and would be minded to recommend Apollo's bid to its shareholders, given that Apollo's £5.7 billion bid is superior to Castlelake's £5.5 billion offer. - WD-40 (WDFC) shares jumped after the lubricant spray maker boosted its net sales forecast for the full year.
