Shares of Jumia Technologies AG (JMIA.N) rose 3.12% in pre-market trading, reaching $10.89, as the stock crossed above its 5-day simple moving average (SMA). This technical breakout comes on the heels of the company's third-quarter earnings report, which revealed a 25% increase in revenue to $45.6 million, despite a widened loss of $19.08 million. The market reacted positively to the operational improvements, including a narrowed adjusted EBITDA loss and a refined financial outlook projecting a path to breakeven by Q4 2026. However, concerns linger regarding liquidity, as cash reserves decreased by $15.8 million during the quarter, prompting investors to weigh the risks associated with Jumia's growth strategy.
