BlackSky Technology Set to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in Store?

BlackSky Technology Inc. BKSY will release third-quarter 2025 results on Nov. 6, before market open.

BKSY’s record of earnings surprises is not impressive. It surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in one of the four trailing quarters and missed thrice, with an average negative surprise of 10.7%.

BKSY’s Q3 Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top line is set at $29.5 million, indicating 30.9% growth from the year-ago quarter’s actual.

The primary growth engine is likely to have been due to higher professional and engineering services. Robust growth in revenues from the high-margin Imagery and Analytics business is expected to have improved the top line.

Gen-3 satellites coupled with the leading Spectra platform and AI capabilities are expected to have resulted in winning contracts and widening the customer base. Strong international demand for BlackSky services due to Gen-3 validation is anticipated to have improved the top line.

The consensus estimate for loss per share is pinned at 37 cents, whereas it incurred a loss of 66 cents in the year-ago quarter. BKSY’s ability to control costs, resulting in long-term margin improvement, is anticipated to have narrowed its losses.
