After-Hours Movers Nov 11, 2026: Why POAS, ADXN, NXXT Jumped
Why POAS, ADXN, NXXT, CURI and AVEX moved after the bell on November 11, 2026: earnings, guidance, a delisting twist and unexplained spikes.
POAS — Phaos Technology Holdings (Cayman) Ltd (+118.0%)
POAS more than doubled after the bell, trading up to $1.96 versus its 4:00 PM ET close. About 6.99 million shares changed hands in after-hours trading, against a 20-day average of just 89,526. That is a huge surge in activity for a $4.7 million market-cap industrials name.
No news, filing or announcement explains the move. The most recent filings are two routine foreign-issuer 6-Ks, dated October 19 and October 27, both neutral. With no catalyst, this looks momentum- or technically-driven.
The technical picture is weak. A bullish marubozu candle (a full-bodied candle with almost no wicks) printed, but RSI is 33, the moving-average stack is bearish, and the stock sits 99.2% below its 52-week high. Conviction is 36/100 (grade D). Free float is 52.9%, and short-volume is 40%.
After-hours trading is thin, so prices can swing wildly and may extend or reverse at the next open. A micro-cap like this is especially fragile.
ADXN — Addex Therapeutics Ltd. (+100.7%)
ADXN doubled after hours, trading up to $5.60 on 5.4 million shares. Its 20-day average volume is only 6,446, so this is an extreme spike for a $3.7 million healthcare company.
The most likely catalyst is news that Addex's spin-out Neurosterix closed a $105 million Series B financing. Proceeds mainly fund Phase 2 development of NTX-253 for schizophrenia. Addex did not take part in the round, and its stake is now 8.5%, valued at $18.6 million (TipRanks). The release came after the U.S. close, so the timing fits an after-hours reaction. Still, the size of the move is hard to verify, so treat the cause as likely rather than confirmed.
Technically, RSI is 45, ADX is 26, the moving-average stack is bearish, and the stock is 75.9% below its 52-week high. Conviction is 49/100 (grade D), and the RS rating is 6. Short-volume is 22%. Addex also issued 93 million new shares to a subsidiary on October 29 to create treasury shares, leaving outstanding shares unchanged, and raised $2.8 million through an at-the-market program in August.
Thin after-hours volume means the price can reverse quickly.
NXXT — NextNRG, Inc. (+20.1%)
NXXT traded up to $2.15 after hours on 141.4 million shares, versus a 20-day average of about 2.6 million. Market cap is $301.1M.
The backdrop is bad news, not good. NextNRG disclosed on November 10 that a Nasdaq Hearings Panel denied its request to stay listed, and trading was set to be suspended at the open on November 11, with the stock moving to OTC markets. Stock Titan describes this as a listing setback, not a favorable business development. So the spike coincides with negative delisting news rather than being caused by good news. Sources also disagree on the stock's price path that day, and one Benzinga headline described a 25% after-hours plunge, so exact figures are unverified. A 1-for-10 reverse split took effect October 30, leaving about 1.68 million shares outstanding, which can make prices erratic.
Filings include delisting 8-Ks (bearish) on October 27 and November 10, plus a dilution 8-K on November 6. Technically, RSI is 31, ADX is 60, the stack is bearish, and the stock is 99.2% below its 52-week high. A bullish harami candle printed. Conviction is 36/100 (grade D). Free float is 30.1% and short-volume is 66%. Reddit's r/all-stocks ranked it #47 with 14 mentions.

CURI — CuriosityStream Inc. (+16.3%)
CURI traded up to $2.75 after hours on 1.75 million shares, versus a 20-day average of about 528,670. The regular session was not a gain: it closed at $2.37, down 1.66%. Reported after-hours gains vary by source, so the exact percentage is not firmly established.
The likely catalyst is the company's Q3 2026 earnings, released after the close. Revenue was $20.7 million, up 13%. Adjusted EBITDA was $5.0 million, up 67%, and EPS was $0.08. Licensing revenue rose 35% to $11.7 million, with more than $7 million from cash licensing deals led by new AI agreements. CuriosityStream raised its 2026 outlook to revenue of $79–$82 million and adjusted EBITDA of $20–$22 million.
Technically, RSI is 33, ADX is 13, the stack is bearish, and the stock is 53.6% below its 52-week high. Conviction is 33/100 (grade D). Free float is 68.6% and short-volume is 59%. CEO Clinton Stinchcomb bought 30,000 shares (about $77K) on August 27. A fourth-quarter dividend of $0.085 per share is payable December 15 to holders of record December 3.
Earnings reactions after hours can fade or extend once regular trading opens.
AVEX — AEVEX Corp. (+9.7%)
AVEX traded up to $13.30 after hours on 2.2 million shares, a bit below its 20-day average of 2.8 million. The stock had already risen about 4.6% in the regular session before the report.
The catalyst was Q3 2026 earnings and a raised outlook. AEVEX lifted full-year revenue guidance to $820–$840 million from $700–$720 million, and adjusted EBITDA guidance to $128–$132 million from $105–$111.5 million, despite a $16.8 million net loss. Investing.com noted the revenue midpoint sat well above the $754.6 million analyst consensus.
Technically, RSI is 48, ADX is 30, the stock is 71.4% below its 52-week high, and conviction is 32/100 (grade D). Free float is 77.5% and short-volume is 55%. The smart-money score is 24/100, and the largest disclosed stake is 49.5%, with a Schedule 13G filed October 27.
Guidance beats can hold, but after-hours prices are thin and can reverse at the open.
The bottom line
After-hours gainers are some of the riskiest trades in the market. Liquidity is thin, spreads are wide, and moves driven by earnings, financings or even bad news can extend or reverse at the next open. Several of tonight's names are micro-caps with tiny floats or odd share counts. Patterns and squeezes fail often, so manage risk, size small and do your own research. This is educational content, not financial advice.

Frequently asked questions
Why is ADXN up after hours?
The likely catalyst is Neurosterix, Addex's spin-out, closing a $105 million Series B financing, announced after the U.S. close on November 11, 2026. The size of the move could not be fully verified.
Why is CURI up after hours?
CuriosityStream reported Q3 2026 revenue of $20.7 million, up 13%, and raised its 2026 revenue and adjusted EBITDA outlook after the close.
Why is NXXT up if it was delisted?
The spike coincided with news that Nasdaq denied NextNRG's listing appeal. No source ties the rally to good news, and the tiny share count after a 1-for-10 reverse split can make prices erratic.
Are after-hours moves reliable?
No. Liquidity is thin, so prices can swing sharply and may extend or reverse at the next open.
