This unexpected turn of events likely surprised investors, as the company's performance appeared to have regressed rather than progressed. Moreover, the company's revenue for the quarter was below estimates, with the reported revenue being $25.87 million and the estimated EPS being -$4.22. This discrepancy between the actual and estimated figures likely contributed to the surprise, as investors may have had higher expectations based on the company's previous performance and market conditions.
