Traders have been walking away from Astroscale Holdings for weeks, with the stock down about 33% over the past three months. Yet the latest earnings land with an even harsher message. The headline is not the top line. Q1 2027 shows revenue of ¥1,195.7m, but the real story is the deeper loss, with net income from ongoing operations sliding to a ¥3,071.7m deficit and basic EPS at a loss of ¥22.13.
