As the Q4 earnings season wraps, let’s dig into this quarter’s best and worst performers in the consumer electronics industry, including Sonos (NASDAQSONO) and its peers.
Peloton Interactive generated strong cash flows and exceeded revenue expectations, yet faced challenges with subscriber growth and equipment sales in its Q2 FY2025 earnings report.
Shares of exercise equipment company Peloton (NASDAQPTON)
jumped 17.9% in the pre-market session after the company reported strong fourth-quarter results, with EBITDA significantly surpassing Wall Street estimates and guidance for the next quarter coming in well above expectations. Gross margins improved significantly, due to a shift toward higher-margin products and lower costs. This margin expansion helped drive the earnings outperformance despite revenue pressures. Overall, this quarter showed that profitability is strong and that the turnaround is in progress.
Exercise equipment company Peloton (NASDAQPTON) announced better-than-expected revenue in Q4 CY2024, but sales fell by 9.4% year on year to $673.9 million. On the other hand, next quarter’s revenue guidance of $615 million was less impressive, coming in 6% below analysts’ estimates. Its GAAP loss of $0.24 per share was 25.9% below analysts’ consensus estimates.

I’m used to selecting obscure, totally unknown companies in one of my services. But I think there’s an interesting story with the household name Peloton Interactive Inc. (PTON) that’s worthy of sharing.
Peloton was a massive stock during the pandemic, when everybody was stuck at home and exercise equipment was hugely important. However, it has mostly been a disaster since the pandemic ended. Yet it may be worth consideration in 2025.
Shares of exercise equipment company Peloton (NASDAQPTON)
fell 7.6% in the morning session after the major indices declined sharply (Nasdaq down 1.9%, S&P 500 down 1.1%) as investors appeared to be locking in some gains in a year marked by significant progress in the Fed's effort to deliver a soft landing—taming inflation without causing more damage to the economy—despite early signs of weakness in the labor market.
What a fantastic six months it’s been for Peloton. Shares of the company have skyrocketed 171%, hitting $9.39. This was partly due to its solid quarterly results, and the performance may have investors wondering how to approach the situation.
