The substantial beat on the earnings per share (EPS) estimate is likely to positively impact investor sentiment and KNTK's stock price in the short term, despite the miss on sales estimates.

However, the miss on sales forecasts may temper some of the positive momentum, making the overall short-term impact positive but with caution.
