Shares of aerospace and defense company Howmet (NYSE:HWM)
fell 10.2% in the afternoon session after the company reported record-breaking second-quarter financial results that were overshadowed by a decline in its Forged Wheels business segment. The company posted record second-quarter revenue of $2.05 billion and a 36% jump in adjusted earnings per share, and also lifted its full-year financial outlook. However, investors appeared to focus on a weak spot in the report. Howmet's Forged Wheels segment, which serves commercial transportation, experienced a 1% revenue dip. The company connected this to a broader 4% decline in the commercial transportation market. This specific weakness, combined with the stock's nearly 76% rally year-to-date, likely prompted investors to take profits despite the strong headline numbers.
