AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (ASTS) stock plummeted 6.40% during intraday trading on Friday, extending a multi-session decline for the satellite communications company.
The sharp drop follows the company's first-quarter earnings report, which revealed revenue of approximately $14.73 million missed Wall Street analyst estimates by over 60%. Despite showing significant year-over-year growth, the revenue shortfall triggered sustained selling pressure. The company's loss per share also widened to $0.66, worse than analyst expectations.
While AST SpaceMobile maintained its full-year revenue guidance of $150 million to $200 million, the market focused on the near-term disappointment relative to expectations. The stock has faced downward pressure since the earnings release, with the revenue miss being the primary driver of the recent decline.
