Takeaway Price has moved further than forward earnings growth currently justifies — worth weighing against the rest of the entry case.
Reported earnings
Revenue Net incomeEPS (GAAP) (-4.07–0.63, own scale) Derived Q4
12 quarters to Q1 26. Revenue and net income share one scale, so the gap between them is the margin. The baseline is zero — bars below it are losses. The line is GAAP EPS — it spans every quarter shown, where the reported figure only goes back as far as the consensus feed does.

Share count
Diluted shares Return since the previous filing
| Direction | Growing — shares issued |
|---|---|
| Diluted shares | 2,492.0M as at 2026-03-31 |
| Change over 1 year | +1.2% |

| Public float | $28.00bn as at 2025-06-30 (10-K) |
History before 2022-06-30 is not shown. The share count jumps at that date by a ratio no ordinary issuance produces — a split whose factor is not in Brown Bear's split store — so earlier figures are on a different basis and cannot be compared with today's.
The Pricewhat the chart is doingTop ↑
Price Levels
| Strategy | Current Price Reasonable |
|---|---|
| Reference band | 27.24 — 27.93 |
| Protective stop | 26.62 (Structure, 3.5% risk) |
| Support | 26.89 (10 touches, 2.8% away) |
| Resistance | 29.30 (6.0% away) |
Takeaway The shares are nearer the floor than the ceiling: about 2.8% above 26.89, a price buyers have stepped in at before, and 6.0% below 29.30, where sellers have turned up before. That floor has held 10 times, which is how it was spotted. If someone bought at today's price and sold if it dropped through the level below, they would be about 3.5% out of pocket. That is all this figure means — an illustration of the risk, not a price to sell at.
Levels are computed from price structure. They describe where the engine locates support and extension — they are not targets, and not advice.
Ichimoku Cloud (Adaptive)
| Daily cloud | Price ABOVE the cloud | periods 5/15/29 (56% of classic 9/26/52) |
|---|---|
| Lines | Tenkan/Kijun BULL (fresh up cross, 1d ago) | cloud twist BULL (fresh up, 1d ago) |
| Cloud event | Fresh up breakout 3d ago |
| Cloud thickness | 79% percentile |
| Chikou span | Above price from 26 periods ago |
| Weekly cloud | Price ABOVE the weekly cloud (context only, not scored) |
Takeaway The stock is trading above its cloud — a shaded band drawn from several of its own moving averages, currently 26.51 to 26.83. Being above it means the medium-term picture is pointing upwards, and that band is the first place the stock has recent support if it slips back. Its shorter-term averages agree with that. The band is unusually wide at the moment, so it marks a broad zone rather than a single level.

Trend context
| Position | At trend |
|---|---|
| Extension | Normal |
| Trend slope | Rising |
| Direction of travel | Holding its deviation |
Takeaway Price is near a rising Kalman fair trend, consistent with a healthy trend setup.
Volatility

|---|---|
| Current band width | 10.0% of price |
| Recent tightest | 9.4% (1 sessions ago, narrower than 14.0% of its history) |
| Expansion since | 1.06× |
| Range broken | Up |
| Band | 24.90 — 27.53 |
Takeaway Lately this share price has been swinging around inside a range roughly 10% wide. That is normal for this stock, so there is nothing unusual to read into it either way.
Historical trends
History begins when the site started recording, not when the company listed, so a short line means a short record and nothing more.
Who's Tradingthe flow behind the priceTop ↑
Insider activity
| Activity | No filings in the window |
|---|---|
| Buy filings | 0 |
| Sell filings | 0 |
Open-market Form 4 purchases and sales over the last 75 days, read from SEC EDGAR Form 4. Grants, option exercises, gifts and shares withheld for tax are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not a decision to buy or sell. Reported Form 4 activity. Brown Bear tested insider cluster-buying as a return signal and rejected it as era-unstable; shown as fact, not signal.
Volume confirmation

No absorption or distribution event in the recent window.
Takeaway Slightly more shares change hands on rising days than on falling ones, but the gap is too small to read anything into.
Options Positioning
Binary-event risk flagged
WBD: binary-event risk suspected -- Term structure inverted (near 42% IV vs far 23% IV, ratio 1.81); Implied move 5.3% is 0.93x the ATR-expected 5.7% over 9d. Options market is pricing a discrete catalyst; technical breakout signals are unreliable until it resolves.
| Implied volatility | 42% near (9d) · 23% far (65d) — Term structure inverted — the market is pricing an event in the near window |
|---|---|
| Term structure | 1.81× near/far |
| Historical volatility | 25% |
| Implied vs historical | 1.72× — Options are priced well above what the stock has actually done |
| Implied move | ±5.3% by 2026-08-21 — Large relative to this stock's normal daily range |
| Implied move vs ATR | 0.93× |
| Skew | Put Skew (1.26×) |
| Call wall | 29.00 (+4.9% away) |
| Put wall | 20.00 (-27.7% away) |
| Gamma pin | 20.00 |
- Term structure inverted (near 42% IV vs far 23% IV, ratio 1.81)
- Implied move 5.3% is 0.93x the ATR-expected 5.7% over 9d
Takeaway Insuring against a move in this stock costs more for the next few weeks than for the next few months. Traders usually pay up like that when they know something is coming soon — results, a court ruling, a regulatory decision. Options traders are positioned for a move of around 5.3% in either direction by 2026-08-21. The overall shape suggests they expect a one-off result that lands either well or badly, rather than a gradual drift.
Chain as at 2026-08-12. This is a risk read on whether a specific event is being priced — not a directional view.
