Check out the companies making the biggest moves midday: PayPal — The payments stock fell more than 2% after Chief Financial Officer Jamie Miller said the company still has “a lot more work to do” to achieve profitable growth. She added that she’s “encouraged by a lot of the different elements of what we’re seeing.” Ciena — Shares of the optical networking systems company surged 18% on better-than-expected results for the fiscal third quarter. Ciena earned 67 cents per share on revenue of $1.22 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet estimated a profit of 53 cents per share on revenue of $1.17 billion. Fiscal fourth-quarter revenue guidance also topped expectations. Gap — The retailer’s shares gained about 5% after the firm announced it is expanding into beauty starting with its Old Navy brand. It marks a strategic shift for the apparel retailer as it enters one of the most resilient segments of retail in recent years. Shoe Carnival — The shoe retailer surged 14.2%. Shoe Carnival lifted the low end of its full-year guidance range for earnings per share. Texas Instruments — The chipmaker declined nearly 5%. Its finance chief, Rafael Lizardi, told a conference on Thursday that demand has cooled since President Donald Trump’s tariffs announcement in April. Salesforce — The cloud company slipped 6% after Salesforce guided for third-quarter revenue to come in between $10.24 billion and $10.29 billion, lower than the $10.29 billion analysts polled by LSEG had estimated. However, Salesforce posted a second-quarter beat on both the top and bottom lines. American Eagle — Shares surged 34% after the apparel retailer posted second-quarter earnings of 45 cents per share on revenue of $1.28 billion. Analysts had expected earnings of 21 cents per share and revenue of $1.24 billion, per LSEG. The company’s second-quarter beat can be partially attributed to an advertising campaign with actress Sydney Sweeney, which American Eagle called one of its “best” to date. C3.ai — The maker of custom artificial intelligence applications shed 3% after it posted a fiscal first-quarter adjusted loss that was wider than analysts had predicted. Revenue also came in below expectations. On top of that, the company withdrew its previous full-year guidance as it appointed a new CEO and restructured its sales and services organization.

Figma broke even on the bottom line, while revenue of $249.6 million exceeded an LSEG estimate of $248.8 million.
