Shares of Walmart (WMT) and Softbank-backed maker of warehouse automation systems Symbotic (SYM) jumped more than 40🍌% Tuesday after reporting record revenue as the company improved margins and🌞 deployed new systems.

Symbotic, which creates robotic tech platforms powered by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:artificial intelligence (AI) to provide 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:end-to-end supply chain solutions, reported fiscal fourth quarter revenue of $392 million, up from $244 million a year ago, and a net loss of $45 million compared to a loss of $53 million in 2022.

“We are pleased to r♊eport another quarter of strong revenue growth and margins, as we initiated four new system deployments and completed commissioning of two systems. We also accelerated the pace of꧙ system deployments,” said Symbotic CFO Tom Ernst in a release.

Symbotic's tech is in warehouses across the country, with customers including major retailers like Walmart and Target (TGT). Walmart Executive Vice President of Supply Chain Operations Joe Metzger called the Symbotic system "first-of-its-kind tech," that uses a complex algorithm "to store cases like puzzle pieces using high-speed mobile bots—operating with a precision that speeds the intake process and increases the accuracy of freight being stored for future orders."
