US stock futures are trading mixed Friday morning, but several companies are grabbing attention after earnings reports. Lululemon surged 10.7% on strong results and a CEO transition plan, while Broadcom fell despite beating estimates and boosting its dividend.

With US stock futures showing mixed signals Friday morning, several companies are commanding investor attention after releasing earnings results that ranged from pleasantly surprising to head-scratchingly disappointing.

Johnson Outdoors Inc. (JOUT) is expected to report a quarterly loss of 68 cents per share on revenue of $117.24 million before markets open, according to data from Benzinga Pro. The outdoor recreation company's shares rose 1.2% to $43.50 in after-hours trading.

Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST) delivered better-than-expected financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 after Thursday's closing bell. The warehouse giant posted first-quarter revenue of $67.31 billion, topping analyst estimates of $67.14 billion. Despite the beat, Costco shares slipped 0.7% to $878.50 in after-hours trading.

The real winner of the evening? Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU) posted better-than-expected results for the third quarter and raised its full-year guidance. But that wasn't all—the athletic apparel company announced a CEO succession plan and authorized an increase to its share buyback program. Investors loved the complete package, sending Lululemon shares soaring 10.7% to $206.97 in after-hours trading.

RH (RH) posted mixed results for the third quarter after Thursday's close. The luxury home furnishings retailer reported quarterly earnings of $1.71 per share, which missed the analyst estimate of $2.16 by 20.87%, according to data from Benzinga Pro. However, quarterly revenue came in at $883.81 million, slightly beating the Street estimate of $883.69 million. Despite the earnings miss, RH shares gained 5.1% to $161.09 in the after-hours session.

Then there's Broadcom Inc. (AVGO), which reported better-than-expected results for the fourth quarter and issued strong first-quarter sales guidance. Broadcom's board also approved a 10% quarterly cash dividend increase to 65 cents per share, payable on December 31 to shareholders of record as of December 22. You'd think investors would celebrate, right? Not exactly—Broadcom shares fell 4.5% to $388.20 in after-hours trading, proving once again that stock market reactions don't always follow logic.
