Monday, May 13, 2:48 PM Zoltek (ZOLT -3%) slips after its FQ2 revenue came in below Street expectations. The company reported net sales of $33M, versus consensus estimates for $37.5M. Sales declined by 29% Y/Y, due almost exclusively to reduced activity in the wind energy market, which has negatively affected all industry participants - from the suppliers of glass and carbon fibers and other materials to the manufacturers of wind turbines.

Tuesday, April 2, 5:55 PM Zoltek (ZOLT) trades higher in the post session on speculation the company is evaluating strategic alternatives. Seeking Alpha contributor Neal Greenberg notes that Quinpario Partners turned up the heat last month on ZOLT's board to consider a cash infusion or even an all out takeover of the company, both of which were initially rejected out of hand. More recently however, he points out that Quinpario has filed an updated SC/13Da indicating ZOLT's board has reconsidered and agreed to open discussions. Shares +5.8% AH. Comment! [M&A, On the Move]

Friday, February 1, 12:04 PM Zoltek (ZOLT -11.2%) gets hammered today after its Q4 earnings missed consensus across the board, as total sales plummeted by 23% Y/Y. The company cites a near-shut-down of business in Europe during the second half of December, coupled an acceleration in production by its U.S. wind turbine customers during the first three calendar quarters, to assure completion of capital projects by the end of the year in order to benefit from the US tax credits. 1 Comment [Earnings, On the Move]
