Did SYM Beat Earnings? Q3 2025 Results

No. SYM reported Q3 2025 earnings of $-0.05 a share on Aug 6, 2025, missing the $0.05 consensus estimate by 206.2%. Revenue was $592.1M against a $533.2M estimate.

Symbotic delivered a split verdict in its fiscal third quarter of 2025, posting revenue of $592.12 million, a 25.9% year-over-year gain that cleared the $533.25 million consensus by 11.04%, yet falling short on the bottom line with an EPS loss of $0.05 against expectations for a $0.05 profit, a miss of 206.16%. The strong top-line result was driven by accelerated systems deployment activity, with 46 systems in deployment as of quarter end, while GAAP gross margin expanded to 18.2% from 11.7% a year ago, reflecting improving execution. The quarter's most significant development, however, may shape near-term results: <a href="https://247wallst.com/investing/2025/08/06/live-symbiotic-sym-report-earnings-today-will-shares-skyrocket/">Symbotic's next-generation storage</a> structure announcement is expected to create a temporary revenue headwind as customer schedules adjust to the new design, a dynamic the company acknowledged in issuing Q4 guidance of $590 million to $610 million in revenue and $45 million to $49 million in adjusted EBITDA. Notably, the company's $22.40 billion contracted backlog remains intact.

Key Takeaways
  • 26% year-over-year revenue growth driven by systems deployment
  • Gross margin improvement to 18.2% from 11.7% year-over-year
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $45 million, up from $3 million year-over-year
  • 42 operational systems as of Q3 FY2025, up from 25 a year ago
  • 46 systems in deployment

“We continue to deliver strong results and drive operational progress. We are building on this momentum with game-changing innovations that are unlocking new opportunities across the supply chain as we have unveiled with our next generation storage structure.”

SYM CEO, on the earnings call

What Was SYM's Outlook in Q3 2025?

For Q4 FY2025, Symbotic expects revenue of $590 million to $610 million and adjusted EBITDA of $45 million to $49 million. The company noted that the launch of its proprietary next-generation storage structure is expected to create a temporary short-term impact on revenue as customer schedules shift to accommodate the new design, though the new structure does not affect the company's backlog and supports long-term value creation.
