Symbotic Inc. saw a significant price increase of 8.62%, crossing above its 5-day SMA, amid a generally weak market with the Nasdaq-100 down 0.28% and the S&P 500 down 0.01%.
This surge is attributed to Symbotic's announcement of a $22.5 billion backlog, which is approximately ten times its annual sales, indicating strong demand for its robotic warehouse solutions, particularly through its partnership with Walmart. The company also reported a 26% revenue increase in fiscal year 2025, reaching nearly $2.3 billion, and a turnaround in free cash flow, which further enhances investor confidence.
The substantial backlog and revenue growth position Symbotic favorably in the automated warehouse market, suggesting a robust outlook for future performance as it continues to expand its partnerships and market share.
