Stock Track | Nova Ltd (NVMI) Plummets 13.45% Despite Strong Q3 Results: Weak Q4 Guidance Raises Concerns

Stock Track11-06

Shares of Nova Ltd (NASDAQ: NVMI) plummeted 13.45% in pre-market trading on Thursday, despite the company reporting better-than-expected third-quarter results. The significant drop highlights investors' concerns about the company's future outlook and potential headwinds in the semiconductor industry.

Nova, a leading provider of metrology solutions for semiconductor manufacturing, announced record quarterly revenue of $224.6 million for Q3 2025, representing a 25% year-over-year increase. The company's non-GAAP earnings per share came in at $2.16, slightly beating the analyst consensus estimate of $2.15. However, the company's fourth-quarter guidance seems to have disappointed the market.

While Nova's CEO Gaby Waisman expressed optimism about the company's performance, stating that they "expect 2025 to be a record year for Nova and anticipate growth to continue in 2026," the provided guidance for Q4 2025 appears conservative. The company forecasts revenue between $215 million and $225 million for the fourth quarter, which could indicate a potential slowdown in growth. Additionally, a slight decrease in gross margin from 57.8% in Q2 to 56.7% in Q3 might be raising concerns about profitability pressures. These factors, combined with the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and current macroeconomic uncertainties, appear to be driving the negative market reaction despite Nova's strong Q3 performance.
