CAMT · PEAD ↓ 43

Camtek reported Q3 2026 EPS of $0.88 on 2026-11-04 (BMO), missing the $0.89 consensus by $0.01 (-1.1%).

Print-day reaction was -9.7% versus the prior close, a sharp immediate sell-off that erased the stock's pre-earnings footing. The overnight gap to the T+1 open compounded the damage by a further -4.7%, signalling no stabilisation after hours. Over the following two trading days (T+1 close through T+3 close) the stock recovered +14.3%, a meaningful reversal of the initial direction rather than a continuation. Cumulative abnormal return of -6.3% versus SPY.US nonetheless keeps the PEAD verdict in short territory; the documented drift window runs through 2027-02-01.
