Analysis · ASTC · Industrial Applications And Services
Astrotech's fiscal 2026 results show a $14.4 million net loss on just $913K in revenue, with $11.3 million in cash remaining. The company is pivoting toward a speculative lunar infrastructure initiative through a new subsidiary, Lunar Power and Light, while its core mass spectrometry business continues to burn cash.
