Momentus 2025 Q2 Earnings Narrowed Losses But Revenue Declines Sharply

Momentus (MNTS) reported its fiscal 2025 Q2 earnings on Aug 19th, 2025. The company saw a significant drop in revenue and narrowed its net loss per share and overall net loss compared to the previous year. The CEO highlighted ongoing efforts to improve operational efficiency and drive long-term value through strategic investments.

Momentus’ total revenue fell sharply by 84.2% to $191,000 in Q2 2025, a steep decline from $1.21 million in the same quarter a year prior. This substantial drop indicates ongoing challenges in the company’s core markets and operational performance.

The company improved its earnings performance, narrowing its per-share loss to $1.23 in 2025 Q2, a 79.2% improvement from a $5.92 loss per share in 2024 Q2. Additionally, Momentus reduced its net loss to $-6.45 million, an 8.1% improvement compared to a $-7.02 million loss in the prior year period, indicating some progress in cost and operational control.

The stock price of Momentus has seen a strong short-term rebound, climbing 5.65% during the latest trading day, surging 18.02% during the most recent full trading week, and rising 2.34% month-to-date. This positive price movement contrasts with its poor historical post-earnings performance.

The strategy of buying Momentus shares on the earnings release date and selling after 30 days has historically resulted in significant losses. Over the past three years, it yielded a return of -99.32%, significantly underperforming the benchmark by 161.91%. The Sharpe ratio of -1.19 highlights the high risk associated with the strategy, while the maximum drawdown of 0% indicates a near-total loss of investment value.

The CEO of Momentus emphasized the company’s focus on overcoming operational challenges while driving long-term value through strategic investments in core technologies and market expansion. He highlighted that while the second quarter of 2025 reflected difficult macroeconomic conditions and soft demand in key markets, the company remains committed to optimizing its cost structure and enhancing operational efficiency. The CEO expressed cautious optimism regarding future opportunities in emerging sectors and reiterated the importance of innovation and customer-centric solutions. He reaffirmed the company’s dedication to strengthening its market positioning through targeted R&D and partnerships, ensuring resilience amid a competitive landscape.

For the remainder of the year, the CEO outlined forward-looking expectations, stating that the company anticipates a gradual improvement in revenue trends, driven by anticipated recovery in key verticals and ongoing product development initiatives.
