The Triple Play Report — 12/10/25

An earnings triple play is a stock that reports earnings and manages to 1) beat analyst EPS estimates, 2) beat analyst sales estimates, and 3) raise forward guidance.  You can read more about “triple plays” at Investopedia.com where they’ve given Bespoke credit for popularizing the term.  We like triple plays as an indication that a company’s business is firing on all cylinders, with better-than-expected results and an improving outlook.  A triple play is indicative of positive “fundamental momentum” instead of pure fundamentals, and there are always plenty of names with both high and low valuations on our quarterly list.

Bespoke’s Triple Play Report highlights companies that have recently reported earnings triple plays, and it features commentary from management on triple-play conference calls, company descriptions and analysis, and price charts.  Bespoke’s Triple Play Report is available at the Bespoke Institutional level only.  You can sign up for Bespoke Institutional now and receive a 14-day trial to read this week’s Triple Play Report, which features 25 new stocks.  To sign up, choose either the monthly or annual checkout link below:

Tower Semiconductor (TSEM) is an example of a company that recently reported an earnings triple play before the opening bell on 11/10. In reaction, TSEM shares rallied 16.7% on the day. That move has helped push the stock up more than 140% YTD!

Here’s how AI describes the company: Tower Semiconductor (TSEM) is a specialized independent foundry that manufactures high-value analog integrated circuits, producing chips for customers who design hardware but do not own their own fabrication facilities. In other words, customers send TSEM blueprints, and it uses its factories to physically build those designs into finished computer chips. Instead of competing on the smallest digital processors, Tower focuses on customizing “specialty” process technologies, such as Silicon Photonics (SiPho), Silicon Germanium (SiGe), and RF-SOI, that excel at managing real-world signals like light, radio waves, and electrical power. You can think of these like the “senses” and “connectors,” rather than the main processors, “brains,” of a computer. These components are critical for optical transceivers in high-speed AI data centers, radio frequency front-ends in 5G smartphones, and power management systems in automotive and consumer electronics. Operating seven manufacturing facilities across Israel, the United States, and Japan, TSEM does not sell devices directly to consumers. Instead, it provides the essential manufacturing service and complex chemical processes needed to create these specific parts, which are then installed inside smartphones, cars, and the massive data centers powering AI.

Tower delivered a strong third quarter with revenue climbing 7% YoY to $396 million and net profit reaching $54 million, while the company raised guidance to a record $440 million for Q4 on the back of huge AI infrastructure demand. The standout performer was the Silicon Photonics segment, which creates optical interconnects for data centers, as revenue here surged 70% to $52 million and is rapidly moving toward ultra-fast 1.6 Terabit speeds that already make up nearly a third of production starts. This demand is so intense that management committed an additional $300 million investment to triple manufacturing capacity for these optical chips by late 2026. Customers are abandoning traditional lasers in favor of Tower’s silicon-based alternative because it offers better performance while requiring only half the number of lasers, making them far cheaper and more efficient.

As we touched on earlier, the stock has staged a historic run; up more than 140% YTD and roughly 325% since the April Tariff Tantrum. The stock is currently trading at its highest level in over 20 years. Wall Street has aggressively re-priced the company from a standard chip manufacturer to a critical piece of the AI supply chain. But this skyrocketing valuation creates a new challenge where expectations are now through the roof. With so much optimism already baked into the price, the company has effectively entered a zone where simply meeting estimates will likely not be enough going forward. To sustain this upward trajectory, TSEM must now likely continually deliver better-than-expected results to justify its massive run.

Looking at the snapshot below from our Earnings Explorer, Tower Semi (TSEM) has found a rhythm with its pace of positive reactions to earnings over the last three and a half years. The stock has risen on 13 of its 14 earnings reaction days since August 2022. EPS and revenue beat rates have been shakier, though. Although not a consistent triple play name, the company has managed a couple recently.

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Deere’s (DE) Q4 2025 earnings call.

Deere (DE) is the world’s leading maker of agricultural, construction, and forestry machinery, serving farmers, contractors, and governments with everything from high-horsepower tractors and combines to precision sprayers, excavators, skid steers, and forestry harvesters. While farming equipment may not be traditionally associated with complex digital systems, DE is standing out with new products that incorporate automation, computer vision, satellite connectivity, and autonomy, giving investors a view into the digitization of global agriculture and infrastructure. The company’s platform, the John Deere Operations Center, now covers more than 500 million engaged acres. This quarter highlighted a tough Large Ag market, but better results elsewhere as tariffs surged to a $1.2B pretax headwind for FY26 and farm fundamentals stayed soft due to high global crop stocks and elevated input costs. Demand for biofuels was a bright spot, with US corn exports projected to hit all-time highs, and soybean crush volume set for a record year. Technology adoption grew nicely: See & Spray (Deere’s computer-vision spraying system that uses cameras and AI to detect weeds in real time and apply herbicide only where needed) covered 5M+ acres with ~50% herbicide savings, and autonomous tillage expanded toward commercial rollout. Construction markets improved with data center builds, infrastructure spending, and a 25% increase in earthmoving order books. As a result of a weaker Large Ag market, DE shares declined 5.8% on 11/26…

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Kohl’s (KSS) Q3 2025 earnings call.

Kohl’s (KSS) is a retailer serving over 60 million primarily low-to-middle-income customers through 1,100+ stores. Offering a mix of national brands and exclusive private labels like FLX, the company acts as a bellwether for middle-class discretionary spending. The partnership with Sephora has notably grown into a nearly $2 billion business. In Q3, newly appointed CEO Michael Bender reported improved momentum with comparable sales declining just 1.7%, aided by a 2.4% rise in digital sales and renewed engagement from core credit customers. Its strategy shifted back toward “opening price point” value through private labels to combat inflation fatigue. While inventory management remains strong (down 5%), KSS is anticipating a highly promotional holiday season and headwinds from potential tariffs. The company remains cautious as consumers become increasingly “choiceful” with spending. The company reported its first triple play in four years, resulting in the stock climbing 42.3% on 11/25, and another 6.5% on 11/26 before the Thanksgiving holiday! Since the April lows, the stock has almost quadrupled in value…

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Dick’s Sporting Goods’ (DKS) Q3 2025 earnings call.

Dick’s Sporting Goods (DKS) is the dominant US omnichannel sporting goods retailer, serving athletes and outdoor enthusiasts through an extensive portfolio that now includes Foot Locker. By combining experiential retail concepts like “House of Sport” with the “GameChanger” youth sports technology platform, DKS provides insight into consumer discretionary spending on health, wellness, and sneaker culture. DKS discussed a distinct bifurcation between its core business and its new Foot Locker acquisition. The legacy DKS brand was strong, delivering 5.7% comparable sales growth and raising full-year guidance despite tariff headwinds. Conversely, the integration of Foot Locker requires a “cleaning out the garage” phase. Management announced aggressive Q4 inventory cleanouts, projecting a steep 1,000–1,500 basis point margin contraction for that segment while targeting an inflection point by the 2026 Back-to-School season to make the deal accretive. DKS beat EPS and revenue estimates, and the stock finished the trading day flat on 11/25 after opening almost 3% lower and completely erasing the losses…

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Symbotic’s (SYM) Q4 2025 earnings call.

Symbotic (SYM) builds automation systems that use robots, sensors, and software to move products through warehouses faster and with far fewer errors than traditional manual operations. Its bots navigate giant storage structures, retrieve items, and sequence them for shipping, helping major retailers like Walmart, wholesalers, grocers, and now healthcare distributors handle huge volumes of goods with more speed and less labor. Symbotic finished the year with $618M in quarterly revenue, up 10%, as more automated systems went live and software and service fees climbed. The biggest news was its first healthcare win with Medline, opening the door to a massive new market of 500+ US distribution centers. Its new “next-gen” storage setup is cutting installation time in half for large customers by allowing what used to be two deployments to be completed in one. GreenBox, its joint venture with SoftBank that builds and operates fully automated warehouses, allowing companies to rent space and fulfillment services powered by Symbotic’s robotics instead of constructing their own distribution centers, is preparing to open its first site in Atlanta as demand grows for faster, more local e-commerce fulfillment. SYM reported EPS of -$0.03, which missed estimates, but beat on the top line as shares surged 36% on 11/25…

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Walmart’s (WMT) Q3 2026 earnings call.

Walmart (WMT) is the world’s largest retailer, serving millions of households across income levels through a massive physical footprint of supercenters, Sam’s Clubs, and expanding eCommerce. Known for its everyday low prices, Walmart provides groceries, general merchandise, health and wellness services, and an enormous third-party marketplace. Walmart delivered another strong quarter with 6% revenue growth, 27% eCommerce growth, and continued market share gains in grocery, apparel, and general merchandise. Higher-income households drove much of the momentum, while lower-income customers showed modest pressure. Delivery speeds hit records, with 35% of US digital orders arriving in under three hours, and automation now supports 50%+ of fulfillment center volume, lowering shipping costs. International strength was notable: China up 22%, and Flipkart’s Big Billion Days (BBD) generated over 700 orders per second at peak. Management was generally confident in its value proposition and growing alternative profit streams like advertising and membership, despite some discussion around tariffs. On better-than-expected results, WMT shares climbed 6.5% on 11/20…
