Key Items to Watch in SanDisk's Q2 Earnings Results
SanDisk’s earnings report remains among the most anticipated given the company’s recent stock rally.
The company was the top-performing S&P 500 stock in 2025, gaining 560.2%. The stock is also a top gainer in 2026, up 91% year-to-date. Since February 2025, when the company was spun out of Western Digital, shares are up over 1,346%.
The company has benefited from a rally in memory stocks amid reports of shortages and rising demand, which could drive prices and margins higher.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang highlighted that storage was a "completely unserved market today," during his speech at CES 2026 earlier this month.
SanDisk and other memory stocks have surged this year, and the rally could just be starting. Seagate Technology Holdings (NASDAQ:STX) reported second-quarter results that beat analyst estimates and issued strong guidance on Wednesday, leading to shares up over 20%.
Analysts and investors will likely be focused on the company's financial results with guidance playing a more important role in if the stock rally can continue. Signs of higher prices, increased demand and higher revenue and margins will all be items to watch.
As one of the hottest stocks, SanDisk could see volatility ahead of earnings, with expectations high and any sign of weakness or less favorable guidance than expected leading to a potential selloff.
