# AST SpaceMobile Stock (ASTS) Set for 19% Move After Q3 Earnings Next Week, Say Options Traders

Space satellite firm AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) reports its Q3 earnings next week – November 9. The company's share price is down 58% in the year-to-date, hit by increased competition from rival SpaceX (SPCX) and its plans for expansion and space data centers. However, it climbed higher today on news that it is building a heavy-lift rocket to take its satellites to space.

As such, Wall Street has a Moderate Buy consensus on the stock. Meanwhile, the options market is pricing in a big 19% move, either up or down, after it releases the Q3 earnings report.

## **What the Options Market Expects for ASTS Stock**

According to TipRanks' Options tool, the options market is expecting a big move of 19% in either direction after the results.

ASTS has a recent history of sharp post-earnings moves, although the reactions have varied from quarter to quarter. After its last earnings report on August 10, 2026, the stock climbed 4.17% the day after publication. The day after its May 11, 2026, report it fell 11.62% and after its March 2, 2026 report it grew 6.63%. 

The expected 19% move then either up or down post the Q3 earnings next week would be a significant movement. That shows that this is an important set of results for ASTS investors.

The ASTS stock has traded between $28.98 and $133.86 over the past year and has a beta of 1.48, meaning it tends to move more than the broader market.

## **What Wall Street Expects**

Wall Street analysts expect AST SpaceMobile to report earnings per share of minus $0.42, compared with minus $0.45 in the same period last year. Revenues are tipped to come in at $45.73 million compared with $14.7 million this time last year. The previous quarter's sales results were $31.52 million. 

Will ASTS beat Wall Street forecasts? As can be seen below, it has a pretty weak track record of beating expectations in recent quarters. 

## **Is ASTS a Good Stock to Buy Now?**

On TipRanks, ASTS has a Moderate Buy consensus based on 6 Buy and 5 Hold ratings. Its highest price target is $115. ASTS stock's consensus price target is $80.71, implying a 157.13% upside. (See **ASTS Stock Forecast**).
