This includes expanding in U.S. and global markets, improving sales and marketing, advancing its technology, and strengthening cybersecurity to support secure data and satellite operations.This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.38 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +39.7%. Revenues are expected to be $15.07 million, down 36.9% from the year-ago quarter.Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.For Spire, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 65.2% lower over the last 30 days to the current level.
