Why did GPK fall after beating earnings?
Beating or missing estimates is only part of the story. These are the measurable things that stand out for each surprising reaction.
GPK beat EPS estimates in 8 quarters, and the stock still closed lower the next day 2 times.
- Jul 29, 2025EPS beat +5.0%stock -2.9% next day
- It had risen 10.0% in the 20 trading sessions before the report, so good news may already have been priced in.
- Apr 30, 2024EPS beat +3.1%stock -7.1% next day
- It opened 4.8% lower as soon as trading resumed.
These are patterns visible in estimates and prices, not confirmed causes. Information only, not investment advice.
Was GPK's earnings move already priced in?
Stocks often move in the weeks before a report. This compares that run-up with what happened after the report.
“Month before” is the move over the 20 trading days up to the last close before the report. “Priced in” means the good news may already be in the price. A run-up of 5% or more is treated as large.

Does GPK hold its opening gap after earnings?

In 9 reports GPK opened at least 1% away from the previous close. It gave back half or more of that gap by the close 2 of 9 times (22%), and fully reversed 2 times. Gaps up faded 1 of 4; gaps down recovered 1 of 5.

GPK fell in the first session after 2 of its last 8 EPS beats (25%). A beat that was already priced in, or weaker guidance, can send a stock lower.
Across its last 12 quarters with price data, GPK moved an average of -0.5% in the 20 trading sessions before reporting and was higher in 42% of them. After a run-up of 3% or more (3 quarters), it fell the next day 33% of the time, averaging +1.9%. After a drop of 3% or more (3 quarters), it rose the next day 67% of the time, averaging -1.2%. This describes past reports; it is not a forecast.

How we calculate these numbers
Reported EPS and estimates come from Yahoo Finance; report times, upcoming dates and revenue come from Finnhub. The 1-day move is the close-to-close change over the first session that reflects the report (the report-day close for after-close reports, the prior close for pre-market reports); reactions are left blank when the report time is unknown or looks inconsistent. The expected move is the price of the nearest at-the-money straddle that expires after the report divided by the share price, shown only when the quotes are liquid. Quarters where the two data sources disagree on beat versus miss are shown but never counted. Information only, not investment advice.
