Did ASTS Beat Earnings? Q3 2025 Results
AST SpaceMobile delivered a headline miss on both top and bottom lines in Q3 2025, though the numbers alone tell only part of the story for a company still racing to build its space-based cellular network. Revenue came in at $14.74 million — a striking 1,239.9% surge year-over-year, yet 33.13% short of the $22.04 million consensus — while an EPS loss of $0.45 fell well below the $0.27 estimate, a 66.85% miss that rattled <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2026/03/02/live-will-ast-spacemobile-beat-earnings-after-the-bell-tonight/">investors watching closely</a>. The shortfall was largely a function of timing: revenue remains tied to gateway deliveries and government milestones rather than recurring commercial service, keeping results lumpy and unpredictable. Against that backdrop, the company secured over $1.00 billion in contracted revenue commitments, including landmark deals with stc Group and Verizon. Looking ahead, management reiterated second-half 2025 revenue guidance of $50.00 million to $75.00 million and targets five orbital launches by end of Q1 2026, aiming for 45 to 60 operational satellites by year-end 2026.
