Check out the companies making headlines before the bell:

Twitter (TWTR) – Twitter is down 1.5% in pre-market trading, likely to break a three-day winning streak that sent it up nearly 32%. Elon Musk – now Twitter’s largest shareholder – has changed the type of SEC deposit regarding his stake purchase to show it was not “passive”.

Spirit Airlines (Waffer) – Spirit said its board will consider a new $3.6 billion cash takeover offer Jet Blue (JBLU). Spirit had agreed in February to be bought by parent company Frontier Airlines frontier group (ULCC) for $2.9 billion in cash and inventory. Spirit is down 2.8% in the primary market, with JetBlue down 3.7% and Frontier down 3.9%.

Tilray (TLRY) — Tilray rose 2.1% in the primary market after reporting unexpected earnings for the fourth quarter, even as revenue fell short of analyst estimates. The cannabis producer also announced a deal with supermarket chain Whole Foods, which will sell cannabis powders produced by Tilray’s Manitoba Harvest subsidiary.

Rivian (RIVN) — Shares of Rivian rose 1.7% in the primary market after the company said it was on track to meet its previously announced production target of 25,000 electric vehicles this year.

Occidental Petroleum (OXY) – Shares of energy producers added 1.7% in pre-market activity after Stifel Financial started coverage with a “buy” rating. Occidental’s prices remain attractive even after it has nearly doubled so far this year, Stifel said, pointing to an underappreciated low-carbon business.

Intel Corporation (INTC) — Intel announced it has suspended commercial operations in Russia, after last month suspending semiconductor shipments to customers in Russia and Belarus. Intel shares fell 1.1 percent in pre-market trading.
