PLAY is up almost 14% for the day and 6% after hours, even after a huge earning miss. They announced earnings of -.35 cents per share, missing expectations by .78 cents per share. A huge miss, about 181% below expectations. And there was a dramatic dip right after the announcement but then the stock rocketed higher than any point this past week. Just wondering if anyone has insight into what happened here. I can’t find any news. (I hold like 85 shares at an avg price of 10.35, nothing major, just curious)
