Among the companies with shares expected to trade actively in Tuesday's session are General Electric Co. (GE), Express Scripts Holding Co. (ESRX) and ConAgra Foods Inc. (CAG).

General Electric Co. said Monday it agreed to sell 23.3% of Hyundai Capital Services to Hyundai Motor Co. and Kia Motors Corp. and plans to sell its remaining 20% stake in the 11-year-old join venture in the coming months. Shares were trading up 0.2% to $30.46 in premarket trading.

Express Scripts Holding Co., the largest U.S. pharmacy-benefit manager, on Tuesday gave stronger-than-expected earnings guidance for next year. Shares rose 3.05% to $89.81 premarket.

ConAgra Foods Inc. on Tuesday reported a dip in sales, though cost cuts and the planned sale of its private-label business helped drive adjusted profit above Wall Street expectations. Share rose 2.46% to $42.00 premarket.

Denbury Resources (DNR) sees its 2016 capital development budget, excluding acquisitions, between $250 million and $300 million. Shares rose 4.23% to $1.97 premarket.

Cintas Corp. (CTAS) said its adjusted earnings rose in the latest quarter, and the Cincinnati provider of uniform rentals and services raised its outlook for the current fiscal year.

NetApp Inc. (NTAP) has agreed to buy data-storage startup SolidFire Inc. for $870 million, adding a participant in a sector that has gained prominence as many businesses turn to flash storage rather than hard drives.

Steelcase Inc. (SCS) said its earnings soared in the latest quarter thanks to lower one-time expenses related to a revamp of the European segment's operations and stronger margins. However, the office furniture and workspace systems company's adjusted per-share earnings, revenue and guidance for the current quarter missed expectations.

Western Refining Inc. (WNR) agreed to acquire the remaining stake in Northern Tier Energy LP (NTI) that it doesn't already own in a revised offer that values the master limited partnership at $2.43 billion. Under the deal, Northern Tier unit holders would receive $15 a unit in cash and 0.2986 Western Refining share for each common unit held, or roughly $26.21 a unit based on Monday's close. The offer represents a 7.9% premium to Northern Tier's Monday close.
