Allstate reported quarterly earnings of $8.99 per share, significantly beating the analyst consensus estimate of $5.76. Similarly, STERIS surpassed its Q1 earnings estimates by posting $2.59 per share against an expected $2.54, according to Zacks reports.

Conversely, technology and logistics firms faced challenges meeting expectations, with Symbotic missing its Q3 earnings targets by reporting $0.09 per share compared to the estimated $0.12.
