Astroscale --- significant decline, announces downward revision of the consolidated financial estimates for the fiscal year ending April 2025.
Significant decline. After the market closed on the 13th, the company announced a downward revision of the consolidated financial estimates for the fiscal year ending April 2025, leading to selling pressure. The annual project revenue estimate was revised from 18 billion yen to 12 billion yen (a decrease of 33.3%). Moreover, regarding previously undisclosed revenue estimates, there is an outlook for an expansion of the deficit compared to the previous term. The reason for the revision of revenue estimates is that the timing of contract signing for large uncontracted projects has been delayed compared to initial expectations, which has affected the timing of revenue recognition, along with concerns about the viability of major uncontracted large projects.
