MDB beat on EPS and revenue but faced a sharp pre-market selloff, indicating investors priced in tougher guidance or slower growth; similar patterns have occurred when high-growth software names beat but miss forward visibility, leading to multiple compression and short-term dips. Historical precedent shows stock reactions can reverse if subsequent guidance is constructive.
