DMA For First Time In 3 Months – Retail Says Valuation Is ‘Cheap’
Array Technologies (ARRY) shares fell more than 26% premarket after a cautious FY2026 outlook. Q4 revenue was $226M, down 17% YoY but above the $211.4M estimate, while net loss widened to $145.7M. FY2026 revenue is forecast at $1.4B to $1.5B and adjusted EPS $0.65 to $0.75, below estimates, with gross margins expected stable.

The 30-second read
Why it matters
Traders should focus on the gap between guided adjusted EPS ($0.65-$0.75) and the $0.88 consensus estimate, plus the company’s margin commentary amid rising commodity costs and international expansion.
Market read
This is a guidance-driven repricing event for ARRY, with the stock testing its 200-day moving average after a large premarket decline.
What to watch
The article attributes the wider net loss to non-cash goodwill impairment and a one-time inventory valuation charge, which may be less predictive of operating cash earnings than the headline loss suggests.
Background
Array Technologies reported Q4 revenue of $226M (above the $211.4M estimate) but issued a cautious FY2026 outlook that disappointed investors.
Ticker impact
Array Technologies guided FY2026 revenue to $1.4B-$1.5B and adjusted EPS to $0.65-$0.75, sending shares down over 26% premarket.
Bearish near-term bias, with follow-through risk if investors continue to reprice margin and earnings power.
The article cites a cautious FY2026 forecast with adjusted EPS below consensus and reports a sharp premarket selloff, indicating the market is reacting to earnings power rather than the quarter’s revenue beat.
Market effects
Solar equipment peers may face read-across pressure if investors interpret margin stability claims as insufficient to offset cost and international pricing headwinds.
US solar supply-chain sentiment likely weakens at the open given the magnitude of the premarket move.
International expansion into lower price points raises global demand and pricing sensitivity concerns for the solar equipment supply chain.
Counterpoint
The quarter beat on revenue and management’s claim of stable gross margins could limit downside if the market overreacts to adjusted EPS alone.
