Backblaze (NASDAQ:BLZE) (up USD 2.48, 33.51%): Storage Growth Paired With a Higher Outlook

Backblaze (NASDAQ:BLZE) was up 33.51% to USD 9.88 in pre-market trading on November 3, 2026. The catalyst is its third quarter 2026 report, released on November 2, 2026, which included a raised full year outlook.

Revenue was USD 46.7 million, up 26%, while B2 Cloud Storage revenue was USD 30.5 million, up 47%. Full year 2026 revenue guidance rose to USD 177.8 million to USD 178.2 million. The risk is Leverage and retention: the company issued USD 201 million of 0% convertible senior notes due 2031, which can dilute shareholders if converted, and net revenue retention slipped to 105% from 107%.

Harmonic (NASDAQ:HLIT) (up USD 1.67, 16.39%): Broadband Revenue Surges 64%

Harmonic (NASDAQ:HLIT) was up 16.39% to USD 11.86 in pre-market trading on November 3, 2026, following third quarter results released after the close on November 2, 2026. Revenue from continuing operations was USD 148.8 million, up 64% from USD 90.5 million a year earlier.

The company raised its 2026 revenue outlook to USD 545 million to USD 555 million, and Backlog and deferred revenue stood at USD 534.0 million. It completed the sale of its video Business to MediaKind on June 16, 2026, leaving Broadband as its single reportable segment. Third quarter bookings of USD 105.9 million were below the USD 144.3 million recorded in the second quarter, a figure investors may weigh against the revenue gain.

Palantir (NASDAQ:PLTR) (down USD 13.13, 7.36%): Trading Lower Despite a 96% Revenue Gain

Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) was down 7.36% to USD 165.22 in pre-market trading on November 3, 2026, against a Monday close of about USD 178.34. Third quarter revenue rose 96% to USD 2.313 billion, and US commercial revenue of USD 984 million exceeded US government revenue of USD 953 million for the first time.

No specific cause for the decline was stated. One softer data point is total contract value closed of USD 2.918 billion, up only 6% year over year, compared with growth of 49% in the second quarter of 2026. The company raised full-year 2026 revenue guidance to USD 8.530 billion to USD 8.534 billion, and after-hours trading was reported to be choppy.

Adeia (NASDAQ:ADEA) (down USD 4.57, 22.11%): Revenue Guidance Range Lowered

Adeia (NASDAQ:ADEA) was down 22.11% to USD 16.10 in pre-market trading on November 3, 2026, after its third quarter report on November 2, 2026. Revenue was USD 80.2 million against USD 87.3 million a year earlier, and the 2026 revenue range was lowered to USD 375.0 million to USD 415.0 million from USD 395.0 million to USD 435.0 million.

Management said it still expects to reach the high end of the range, but that the timing of a few deals could push some revenue beyond year-end. Term Loan principal outstanding was USD 386.5 million against cash, equivalents and marketable securities of USD 127.7 million. Pre-market Liquidity is thin, so early prices can differ from regular-hours trading.

ZeroStack (NASDAQ:ZSTK) (up USD 0.2299, 8.30%): A Penny Stock Rising Without News

ZeroStack (NASDAQ:ZSTK) was up 8.30% to USD 3.00 in pre-market trading on November 3, 2026. A search of company releases and filings found no announcement dated October 30 to November 3, 2026 that explains the gain, and the move may reflect a bounce after a 5.12% decline to USD 2.78 on October 30, 2026, per third-party data.

Formerly Flora Growth, the company reported crypto holdings valued at about USD 1.06 billion on August 24, 2026, yet its Market Value is near USD 60 million at recent prices. As a penny stock, it can swing sharply on low liquidity, and token or equity financings could dilute holders.
