Key takeaways

  • SEZL closed at $118.51, down sharply from its $132.36 open after touching an intraday low of $114.16
  • Q2 2026 earnings beat by +18.95% and revenue beat by +14.88%, yet second-half growth warnings dominated the reaction
  • Management raised adjusted net income guidance to $185M and targeted 35% revenue growth for 2026
  • The 200-day EMA at $111.95 now forms the critical support floor, aligning with the daily S1 pivot at $110.99
  • Daily ATR at 14.79 signals an unusually wide risk environment where single-session swings can span the entire distance to the 200-day EMA

The catalyst is well documented. Sezzle beat on both lines for Q2 2026. Earnings surprised by +18.95% and revenue by +14.88%. Management raised adjusted net income guidance to $185M. They also targeted 35% revenue growth for 2026 and flagged the Sezzle Send launch. However, the warning that revenue growth should slow in the second half dominated the reaction. Shares were already down 23% in premarket trade around $137.50. The regular session took price meaningfully lower still. That matters more than the initial gap.
