Veeva Systems Inc. shares jumped 7.8% in pre-market trading on Tuesday after the company reported fiscal second-quarter 2027 results that exceeded analyst expectations and raised its full-year guidance.

The company’s stock reached $264 in early trade, up from Tuesday’s opening price of $239.87, following the release of its quarterly performance.
