Shares of Priceline popped 5 percent in extended trading following the company's earnings beat and revenue miss.

Shares of Rackspace Hosting surged nearly 19 percent in extended trading. The spike follows a Wall Street Journal report that the company is in advanced talks to be sold to a private-equity firm.

Kraft Heinz popped more than 4 percent after hours after the company reported a strong boost in quarterly revenue and EPS, year over year.

The company said that "results … reflected significant gains from the ongoing integration of Kraft and Heinz, partially offset by currency translation and a higher tax rate versus the prior year period."
