Fourth quarter earnings season is entering its final stretch.

As of Feb. 13, 74% of S&P 500 (^GSPC) companies had reported results, according to FactSet data, and blended earnings growth — meaning a combination of reported results from companies and projected profits from analysts — stood at 13.2%.

If that growth rate holds, it would represent the 10th consecutive quarter of annual earnings growth for the index and the fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth.

On Wednesday, Carvana (CVNA) and DoorDash (DASH) took focus on the earnings docket. Carvana saw its shares sink after a profit miss and vague guidance, while DoorDash shares slid after its own mixed results.

Over the balance of the week, investors will digest results from Walmart (WMT), the highlight of the week, as well as Deere & Co. (DE), Analog Devices (ADI), Booking Holdings (BKNG), and eBay (EBAY).

Carvana stock fell as much 20% late Wednesday after the company reported fourth quarter profit that was light of estimates.

Yahoo Finance's Pras Subramanian reports:

The company posted revenue of $5.60 billion vs. $5.27 billion estimated per Bloomberg, up 58% compared to a year ago. The online car giant said retail units sold hit 163,522 vs 157,226 estimated, a jump of 58%.

The e-commerce auto site reported adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) of $511 million vs $535.7 million expected, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 10.1% missing estimates of 10.4%.

Carvana’s outlook was vague and didn't provide estimates for Q1 results.

“Looking forward, Carvana expects significant growth in both retail units sold and Adjusted EBITDA in full year 2026, including a sequential increase in both retail units sold and Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 2026, assuming the environment remains stable,” Carvana CEO Ernie Garcia III said in his shareholder letter.

Wall Street expected a Q1 adjusted EBITDA estimate of $671 million, with retail unit sales hitting 175,478.

DoorDash (DASH) reported fourth quarter results that slightly missed Wall Street's expectations on the top and bottom lines, while total orders rose more than forecast.

Earnings per share came in at $0.48, compared with the $0.55 the Street had forecast. But adjusted EBITDA reached $780 million in the quarter — up 38% compared to a year ago and almost $5 million above the Street's estimates.

Meanwhile, revenue grew 28% year over year to $3.96 billion, a tick lower than the nearly $4 billion Wall Street predicted. Total orders, which means all orders through its marketplaces and commerce platform, also jumped 32% to 903 million in the quarter. That's more than the 888 million analysts had anticipated.

Marketplace GOV — the total dollar value of transactions completed through the marketplace, including taxes, tips, and fees related to DashPass and its international platform Wolt+, clocked in at $29.7 billion compared to the expected $29.1 billion.

That was driven higher by growth in new customers and order rates among existing customers in the US restaurant category.

Its stock fell as much as 8% following the results. Shares had lost about 20% this year through Wednesday's close.

For the first quarter of 2026, the company expects marketplace GOV to be in the range of $31.0 billion to $31.8 billion, above the Street's forecast of $30.75 billion.

Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $675 million to $775 million, which is below what the Street predicted of $800 million.

Wingstop (WING) shares jumped 14% on Wednesday after the popular restaurant chain reported fourth quarter earnings which beat analysts' expectations.

Investing.com reports:

The restaurant chain posted adjusted earnings of $1.00 per share, significantly above the analyst estimate of $0.84, while revenue came in at $175.7 million versus the consensus estimate of $177.88 million.

The company reported system-wide sales of $1.3 billion for the fourth quarter, representing a 9.3% increase compared to the same period in 2024. However, domestic same-store sales decreased 5.8% YoY, while company-owned restaurant same-store sales grew 1.6%. Wingstop achieved 124 net new openings during the quarter, bringing its total restaurant count to 3,056 globally.

\\"Our team continues to demonstrate operational excellence as we opened 493 net new restaurants and expanded into six new international markets,\\" said Michael Skipworth, President & Chief Executive Officer. \\"In a year marked by uncertainty, the structural advantages of our operating model are reflected in our 15% Adjusted EBITDA growth in 2025.\\"

Reuters reports:

Garmin (GRMN) forecast annual revenue and profit above Wall Street estimates on Wednesday driven by strong ‌demand for high-end wearables and fitness products.

Shares of the ‌navigation-device maker rose more than 15% in early trading and the stock ​was on track for its highest single-day percentage jump since October 2024 if gains hold.

The forecasts show Garmin's growth in various markets, including wellness devices, marine systems and private aviation, despite uneven ‌consumer demand.

The company's mix ⁠of sales channels and its own manufacturing facilities have helped it adjust to shifting demand while ⁠maintaining profits.

Revenue from the fitness segment rose 42% to about $765.8 million in the fourth quarter, driven by demand for recently launched ​products including ​its Venu 4 and Bounce ​2 smartwatches.

Reuters reports:

Verisk's (VRSK) fourth-quarter profit topped Wall Street expectations on Wednesday on the back of steady demand for ‌its data analytics offerings, sending its shares up n12% ‌before the bell.

The New Jersey-based insurance-focused firm has benefited from insurers increasingly turning ​to its data analytics services to improve underwriting and claims processing, tackle fraud and strengthen efficiency.

The market-beating results came even as temporary headwinds such as low levels of weather activity and a reduction in a ‌federal government contract impacted ⁠Verisk's growth.

Verisk stock has plunged nearly 21% this year amid broader concerns around AI-driven disruption to the ⁠information services business model.

The company traces its history to 1971, when Insurance Services Office was formed to gather data from insurers and help ​them meet ​regulatory requirements.

Since Verisk's business is underpinned ​by proprietary contributory datasets directly ‌from insurers, analysts see low risk of AI disruption due to these unique datasets and the company's deeply integrated workflows with the insurance industry.

Analog Devices (ADI) stock rose 6% before the bell on Wednesday following the release of its second quarter earnings, which beat analysts' estimates. The company cited strong demand from its industrial and data ‌center customers as the artificial intelligence boom continues ​to drive semiconductor sales.

Reuters reports:

The company forecast second-quarter revenue of $3.5 billion, plus ‌or minus $100 million, ⁠compared with the analysts' average estimate of $3.23 billion, according to LSEG ⁠data.

Surging investment in data center infrastructure for generative AI workloads is helping offset a ​challenging macroeconomic ​and geopolitical backdrop, ​supporting demand for ‌Analog Devices' semiconductors as hyperscalers expand capacity.

\\"While the macro and geopolitical backdrop remains challenging, our revenue outlook for the second quarter reflects a new high-watermark for ADI, underscoring ‌our strong execution against ​cyclical and secular growth ​tailwinds,\\" Analog Devices ​CFO Richard Puccio said.

General Mills (GIS) stock fell 6% on Tuesday after the maker of Cheerios cereal lowered its fiscal 2026 sales forecast due to a more challenging consumer environment.

Bloomberg News reports:

General Mills said it now expects organic net sales to be down 1.5% to 2%, compared with its previous outlook of down 1% to up 1%.

“Weak consumer sentiment, heightened uncertainty, and significant volatility have weighed on category growth and impacted consumer purchase patterns,” the company said in a statement Tuesday ahead of a conference presentation.

Chief Executive Officer Jeff Harmening said cereal, snacks and dog food were seeing the biggest hits from the shakier consumer environment, fueled by higher inflation, reductions in food aid benefits and geopolitical uncertainty. Those factors “have led to significant consumer stress, especially for the middle and lower income groups,” he said in a presentation at the Consumer Analyst Group of New York conference.

Adjusted operating profit and adjusted diluted earnings per share are now expected to be down as much as 20% in constant currency, versus previous guidance for down as much as 15% in constant currency.

Trading platform eToro's (ETOR) stock jumped 11% before the bell on Tuesday after beating estimates for fourth quarter profit.

Reuters reports:

U.S. equity markets rose ​during the quarter as interest-rate cuts supported investor confidence, although volatility in crypto markets prompted some market participants to be cautious. Bitcoin saw its biggest monthly drop since ‌mid-2021 in November.

Meanwhile, heavy ⁠concentration of investments in select AI-linked stocks have led to soaring valuations, raising concerns ⁠of a bubble in the market.

The Tel Aviv-based firm's assets under administration grew by 11% year-on-year to $18.5 billion.

\\"Our fourth ​quarter results ​reflect the strength and ​resilience of our multi-asset ‌business model,\\" Chief Financial Officer Meron Shani said in a statement.

Defense contractor Leidos Holdings (LDOS) reported fourth-quarter revenue below Wall Street estimates, as the ‌six-week long U.S. government shutdown last year weighed ‌on the firm's orders.

The shutdown, the longest in the country's history, ​ended in November after severely disrupting government operations and weighing on contractors such as Leidos, which provides IT, weapons and other services to federal agencies.

Yahoo Finance's Pras Subramanian reports:

Rivian (RIVN) reported better-than-expected fourth quarter earnings after the bell on Thursday as the pure-play EV maker ramps up for the release of its R2 vehicle, which the company said is on track for the second quarter of this year.

For the quarter, Rivian reported revenue of $1.286 billion versus $1.26 billion, per Bloomberg consensus estimates, down around 27% from a year ago. Rivian attributed the revenue declines to the loss of regulatory emissions credit sales, the expiration of the federal EV tax credit, and lower average selling prices.

The company posted an adjusted loss per share of $0.59 versus $0.69 expected, with an adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) loss of $465 million versus $568.2 million expected.

Rivian stock surged over 10% in after-hours trade.

Crucially, the company said its upcoming R2 midsize vehicle is targeting customer deliveries for the second quarter, after early manufacturing validation builds rolled off the assembly line in January.

And for a second quarter in a row, the company posted a gross profit of $120 million, broken down between a loss of $59 million for the automotive segment and a $179 million gain from software and services. Rivian said the jump in software and services profit is due to \\"vehicle architecture and software development services\\" stemming from its joint venture with Volkswagen (VOW3.DE).

McDonald's (MCD) said its value campaign to get customers to return to the fast food chain after high prices tarnished its reputation for affordable food is working. And with fourth quarter US same-store sales growing 6.8% during the quarter, there may be some truth to that.

\\"We're not going to not win on value,\\" CFO Ian Borden told Yahoo Finance. \\"We've made, I think, significant progress on our value and affordability platforms and how those are resonating with consumers.\\"

In the first quarter, McDonald's is expected to pull back on the support it sent franchisees for the Extra Value Meal push. But Borden suggested that many locations would keep the meal deal, calling it \\"fundamental in the environment that we're operating in today.\\"

\\"We're not going to get beaten on value,\\" McDonald's CFO Ian Borden says. \\"We're not going to not win on value, and we have the size and scale and financial strength as a system to kind of invest where we need to do that.\\" pic.twitter.com/HYdtzO3JVo

— Yahoo Finance (@YahooFinance) February 12, 2026

Borden and McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski also indicated that they're aware of the growing adoption of GLP-1 weight-loss medications, especially now that pill versions are rolling out.

\\"As adoption grows, we know that consumers' behavior changes,\\" Kempczinski said. \\"We know that in general, they eat fewer calories in the day, but also what they eat, the mix of that changes.\\"

Kempczinski added that the company is factoring in changing diet preferences, such as customers opting for less sugary drinks, into the offerings it is testing.
