</ul>
<ul>
<li>Q4 EPS: 14 cents, versus estimates of 11 cents</li>

&#8220;The business we have built has now developed its own internal momentum and strength, its own interior life and forms of untamed organic growth, with the output that we are seeing far surpassing what we are investing,&#8221; Karp added.

Infineon Technologies Earnings Review: Q1 Summary

Quantum BioPharma Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QNTM#NASDAQ">QNTM</a>) shares are rising Tuesday after the company announced positive clinical trial results for its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/g43458239/quantum-biopharma-announces-the-success-of-unbuzzd-clinical-trial">unbuzzd dietary supplement</a>.
What Happened: Quantum BioPharma announced that it completed a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover design clinical trial of unbuzzd that was aimed at investigating its effects on alcohol intoxication and alcohol metabolism.
Results showed that unbuzzed accelerated the rate at which Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) was reduced in study subjects, reducing symptoms of intoxication and hangover.
The rate at which BAC was lowered on average was more than 40% faster within 30 minutes of consuming unbuzzed. All results in the study were considered statistically significant compared to placebo. 
&#8220;This clinical trial shows that unbuzzd is an important addition to the safe and responsible consumption of alcohol. Consumers now have the benefit of knowing that unbuzzd can reduce alcohol intoxication, speed the reduction of blood alcohol concentration, restore mental alertness and well-being, and help them avoid the worst symptoms of a hangover,&#8221; said Zeeshan Saeed, CEO of Quantum BioPharma.

Quantum BioPharma said the effects of unbuzzd occurred within 30 minutes after consumption of the dissolved powder. The company noted that unbuzzd was well-tolerated and safe, with no reported product-related adverse effects.
Quantum BioPharma is considered a low-float stock with just 1.83 million shares available for public trading, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;The company also had a market cap of approximately $6 million as of Monday's close.&nbsp;Low-float, micro-cap stocks can be extremely volatile, which may be contributing to some of Tuesday's surge.
QNTM Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/qntm">Quantum BioPharma shares</a> were up 79.6% at $5.71 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Quantum BioPharma Stock Is Soaring Tuesday: What's Driving The Action?

Alcoholic beverage company Diageo Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DEO#NYSE">DEO</a>) released first-half <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">FY25 earnings results</a> and suspended medium-term guidance.
The company reported net <a target="_blank" href="https://www.diageo.com/en/news-and-media/press-releases/2025/2025-interim-results-half-year-ended-31-december-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">sales </a>of $10.9 billion for the half year ended December 2024, reflecting a slight decline of 0.6% primarily driven by unfavorable foreign exchange fluctuations.
Despite the decrease, organic net sales showed a positive growth of 1.0%, bolstered by favorable price/mix changes. However, volume experienced a slight dip of 0.2%.
The company&#8217;s operating profit also decreased by 4.9%, with its operating profit margin shrinking by 132 basis points, impacted by currency movements and lower organic operating margins.
Despite this, Diageo managed to maintain or grow market share in 65% of total net sales value in measured markets, including the U.S.
Moët Hennessy&#8217;s significantly lower contribution and unfavorable currency exchange rates were the primary reasons behind a 9.6% drop in pre-exceptional earnings per share, which fell to 97.7 cents.
On the other hand, the company saw an increase in net cash flow, rising by $0.2 billion to reach $2.3 billion, with free cash flow rising to $1.7 billion, an increase of $0.1 billion compared to last year.
Given ongoing uncertainty in both the geopolitical and macroeconomic landscapes across key markets, Diageo has decided to withdraw its medium-term guidance.
Instead, the company has committed to providing more frequent near-term updates on its performance.

&#8220;Diageo has anticipated and planned for a number of potential scenarios regarding tariffs in recent months. The confirmation at the weekend of the implementation of tariffs in the US, whilst anticipated, could very well impact this building momentum,&#8221; said CEO Debra Crew.
&#8220;It also adds further complexity in our ability to provide updated forward guidance given this is a new and dynamic situation. We are taking a number of actions to mitigate the impact and disruption to our business that tariffs may cause, and we will also continue to engage with the US administration on the broader impact that this will have on everyone supporting the US hospitality industry, including consumers, employees, distributors, restaurants, bars and other retail outlets.&#8221;
Diageo declared an interim dividend of 40.5 cents. The company&#8217;s leverage ratio stood at 3.1x net debt to EBITDA as of December 2024.
Price Action: DEO shares are trading lower by 0.06% at $116.86 in premarket at the last check Tuesday.
