Spire Global, Inc. shares fell by 24.27% and crossed below the 5-day SMA amid a broader market decline, with the Nasdaq-100 down 1.82% and the S&P 500 down 1.10%.
The decline is attributed to the upcoming third-quarter earnings report scheduled for December 17, where analysts predict a loss of 33 cents per share and revenue of $21.17 million, which is a decrease from last year's revenue of $28.57 million. Additionally, the stock had already dropped 5.7% following disappointing second-quarter results, indicating a challenging outlook.
This significant drop in share price reflects investor concerns about the company's financial performance and the mixed analyst ratings, which may lead to further volatility as the earnings report approaches.
Wall Street analysts forecast SPIR stock price to fall over the next 12 months. According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for SPIR is 11.50 USD with a low forecast of 9.00 USD and a high forecast of 14.00 USD. However, analyst price targets are subjective and often lag stock prices, so investors should focus on the objective reasons behind analyst rating changes, which better reflect the company's fundamentals.

Reason
H.C. Wainwright raised the firm's price target on Spire Global to $19 from $14 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Despite the stock's recent outperformance, the geopolitical backdrop and Spire's recent operating changes should drive further share appreciation in 2026, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says its optimism in shares is driven by a "shifting geopolitical landscape as 2025 likely marked the end of the post-Cold War 'peace dividend' in Europe."

Reason
Alliance Global downgraded Spire Global to Neutral from Buy with a price target of $9, down from $17, until there is more evidence of a recovery. Management expects to turn operating cash flow positive no later than Q4 of 2026, but the firm argues this would require 15% upside to its Q4 of 2025 revenue estimate and $36M of annual expense cuts from the most recent quarter, which it views as "unlikely," the analyst tells investors.
