On September 22, Everpure fell 5.42% in regular trading, trading around $107.63 per share, with turnover of approximately $65.42 million. The decline followed the prior session's 6.2% rally driven by the stock's formal inclusion in the S&P 500 Index.

S&P Dow Jones Indices had announced that Everpure would be added to the S&P 500 effective at the open on September 21. Passive funds and ETFs tracking the index were required to complete position-building around the effective date, which generated direct buying support and lifted shares 6.2% on September 21. With mandatory index-replication purchases largely completed, the mechanical buying demand dissipated, prompting a reversal as short-term capital took profits.

Everpure had already accumulated significant gains ahead of the inclusion. On September 17, shares surged over 5% intraday on anticipation of the index event. In late August, the company reported fiscal Q2 adjusted EPS of $0.70, beating the $0.58 consensus by roughly 21%, while revenue of $1.19 billion topped estimates of $1.10 billion. Full-year fiscal 2027 revenue guidance was raised to $5.03-5.07 billion versus the $4.50 billion Street estimate, drawing multiple analyst upgrades including BofA Securities lifting its target to $150.
