So is an earnings call just a report for the profit from the first quarter? And does that mean higher the profit the more likely the stock value will rise?

Well, probably, except I'm guessing the earnings report will not be very rosy, so a significant drop seems likely. I plan to buy tomorrow to catch the next rise, having sold out a couple of days ago.

An earnings call shares the financial results for the quarter.

In this case First Quarter.

One thing I'd point out is that companies give forward guidance on their performance, and the market analysts set expectations of results.

It's really more of a game about meeting or beating expectations than purely making profit.

For example, MVIS consensus estimates are a loss of 4 cents per share.  If they were to beat that and lose 2 cents per share that would generally be seen as positive (they did better than expected).

Conversely a big company could be expected to make 2 bucks a share, but come up short at 1.50, and if that was a surprise the stock could declne.

It's all about context.

That said the Market has been bananas lately, and this is the penny stock market so logic left town a while ago.

MicroVision Announces First Quarter 2020 Results


REDMOND, Wash., May 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MicroVision, Inc. (NASDAQ:MVIS), a leader in innovative ultra-miniature projection display and sensing technology, today announced its first quarter 2020 results.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2020 was $1.5 million, compared to $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2019. MicroVision's net loss for the first quarter of 2020 was $4.9 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to a net loss of $8.1 million, or $0.08 per share for the first quarter of 2019.

“We are committed to finding strategic alternatives that maximize the value of the Company for our stakeholders.  With the help of our financial advisor, Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, we have approached a global list of targeted companies and are diligently exploring all options including the sale of one or more of our module product verticals and related technology or a potential sale of the Company,” said Sumit Sharma, MicroVision's Chief Executive Officer.

“During the first quarter we took many steps to manage costs and create a runway that we expect will give us time to complete a strategic transaction.  We transferred responsibility for component production to our April 2017 customer and sold production assets, which lowered our costs and working capital requirements.  In addition, we initiated a 60% reduction to our workforce and curtailed non-essential expenses,” said Sharma.

Financial Results Conference Call

The Company will host a conference call to discuss its first quarter 2020 results at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time on Thursday, May 7, 2020. Interested parties can access the call from MicroVision’s website on the Investor Relations Events Calendar page at https://microvision.gcs-web.com/investor-event-calendar  or dialing 877-876-9174 (for U.S. participants) or 785-424-1670 (for participants outside of the U.S.) ten minutes prior and request to be connected to the MicroVision First Quarter Financial and Operating Results Conference Call.

The conference call will be available for rebroadcast from the Investor Relations section of MicroVision’s website on the Investor Relations Events Calendar page.

I bought a few shares of Exxon and Shell a couple of weeks ago.  They were fairly steady at a certain level and both crashed to about 1/4 of their normal values.  Figure they will recover back to where they were at some point.  May take a while, but I will just wait.

The earnings don't matter right now...they met expectations. It's about what gets said now. This is in the release:


“We are committed to finding strategic alternatives that maximize the value of the Company for our stakeholders. With the help of our financial advisor, Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC, we have approached a global list of targeted companies and are diligently exploring all options including the sale of one or more of our module product verticals and related technology or a potential sale of the Company,” said Sumit Sharma, MicroVision's Chief Executive Officer.

During the first quarter we took many steps to manage costs and create a runway that we expect will give us time to complete a strategic transaction."

I have no idea what that means, guess we're about to find out. Never did buy today, but I'm riding my shares through the ASM.

It means there won't be any announcement.  That they spent the first quarter slimming down and cutting their cash burn rate so that they can be around long enough to push a deal through.

No deal on the table, or that they're announcing.

I doubt the call will go differently.

That's my take-away right now, too. Still expect the sale to be a decent multiple of .80, but there are rough waters until that ink dries.

Getting parsed hard, too. Notice "stakeholders" instead of "shareholders"?

Also, "We have approached..." rather than "We are in negotiations...".

All the "color" comes in twenty minutes.

So, in essence, we lost money on decreasing revenues, and are exploring ways to raise cash to cover our operating losses from financing operations and asset sales?

I'm assuming none of that was a surprise to anybody.
The part that surprised me was an after hours return to 0.95.
Was the market afraid of some big negative surprise in the earnings release?
That 'sell $1 straddles' suggestion I made tongue in cheek earlier today is looking like moneymaking advice.

No shit!

I don't know much about stocks, but I thought people would wait for the what I would think is the inevitable crash after the conference call to buy.  They're buying early on the front of the call?

ETA:  Is all that's left just the long holders?  Nobody dumping in the after hours?  ETA AGAIN:  Or maybe they're waiting for the end of the CC to dump?
