Movers and Shakers
Alvotech (ALVO) +8%
Alvotech shares jumped in premarket trading after the FDA approved a new manufacturing process for SIMLANDI, its biosimilar to Humira. The upgraded process more than doubles drug substance output per batch without expanding production scale. The efficiency gain frees up manufacturing capacity for other products and strengthens Alvotech's ability to meet growing demand.
Arhaus (ARHS) +7%
Arhaus shares rallied after Piper Sandler upgraded the stock to Overweight from Neutral and raised its price target from $9 to $13. The firm cited improving comparable sales trends, stronger management execution, and opportunities for margin recovery. The upgrade followed last week's analyst event highlighting the furniture retailer's growth initiatives.
Mirion Technologies (MIR) -10%
Mirion shares tumbled in premarket trading ahead of its third-quarter earnings report next week. The radiation detection company reported nearly 20% revenue growth in Q2, but organic growth was just 1.2%, raising concerns about its reliance on acquisitions. No fresh company-specific announcement has been confirmed as the catalyst behind Tuesday's sharp decline.
