The stock's overall trend over the last six months has been sharply negative, with a 25.78% decline from October 2025 to the current price of $92.50. It has significantly underperformed the broader market, as evidenced by a -22.96% relative strength over six months. The price peaked near $143 in December 2025 before a steep sell-off, culminating in a low near $84 in March 2026. Short-term performance shows a 5.5% gain over the past month, which is a notable positive divergence from the S&P 500's -5.25% move, resulting in a strong relative strength of +10.75. However, the 3-month performance remains deeply negative at -27.44%, far worse than the market's -4.63% decline. The recent uptick from the March lows suggests potential stabilization. The current price of $92.50 is positioned near the lower end of its 52-week range of $82.67 to $153.87, sitting approximately 12% above the 52-week low. The stock's beta of 2.01 indicates it is highly volatile and sensitive to market movements, which has contributed to its significant drawdowns and recent partial recovery.

Revenue growth has been strong on a year-over-year basis, with Q4 2025 revenue of $5.52 billion representing a 72.5% increase from the same quarter a year prior.
