B. Riley Financial Inc's shares surged by 31.72% in pre-market trading, crossing above the 5-day SMA, following the company's impressive Q2 earnings report.
The significant rise in share price is attributed to B. Riley Financial reporting a net income of $137.5 million for Q2 2025, a remarkable turnaround from a net loss of $435.6 million in the same quarter last year. This strong performance, along with a Non-GAAP EPS of $4.50 and revenue growth to $225.3 million, has bolstered investor confidence, despite the broader market being slightly down.
