Simulations Plus Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLP#NASDAQ">SLP</a>) shares declined on Tuesday following the release of its third-quarter 2025 earnings report.
The company reported sales of $20.4 million, representing a 10% year-over-year increase, but this fell short of the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate of $20.9 million</a>.
This miss followed preliminary third-quarter sales figures released in June, which were already lower than expectations at $19 million to $20 million, compared to a consensus of $22.78 million.

Despite the revenue miss, Simulations Plus reported adjusted earnings of 45 cents per share, compared to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46403848/simulations-plus-reports-third-quarter-fiscal-2025-financial-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">27 cents a year ago</a>.
Revenue breakdown showed a 6% increase in software revenue to $12.6 million and a 17% increase in services revenue to $7.7 million. The company&#8217;s gross profit stood at $13.0 million, achieving a 64% margin.
However, the quarter saw a substantial net loss of $67.3 million, resulting in a loss per share of $3.35. This was primarily due to a non-cash impairment charge of $77.2 million, contrasting sharply with a net income of $3.1 million and diluted EPS of $0.15 in the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA was $7.4 million, representing 37% of total revenue, up from $5.6 million (30% of total revenue) in the same period last year.
Looking ahead, Simulations Plus revised its fiscal 2025 adjusted earnings guidance to $0.93 to $1.06, down from the previous <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44635451/simulations-plus-reports-second-quarter-fiscal-2025-financial-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">guidance of $1.07 to $1.20</a>.
Similarly, the company&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/06/45912081/simulations-plus-slashes-guidance-amid-biotech-spending-cuts-analyst-expresses-doubt" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiscal 2025 sales forecast</a> was adjusted in June to $76 million to $80 million, a reduction from the prior guidance of $90 million to $93 million and below the consensus of $82.9 million.
The anticipated adjusted EBITDA margin for fiscal 2025 also saw a downward revision, now expected to be between 23% and 27%, compared to the earlier guidance of 31% to 33%.
In June, Simulations Plus initiated a restructuring of its operations, including <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/secfilings/25/06/45718737/simulations-plus-inc-general-corporate-statement-form8" rel="noreferrer noopener">workforce reductions</a> and cost-cutting measures, aimed at improving operational efficiency and reducing expenses.
William Blair analysts noted that the company&#8217;s outlook remains unchanged since June. They attribute the ongoing cautious spending by biopharma clients to uncertainties surrounding future funding, drug pricing, and potential tariffs, leading to budget cuts, project cancellations, and work postponements.
Analyst Max Smock highlighted, &#8220;While the software business remains somewhat resilient (expectation for 5% to 9% organic segment growth in fiscal 2025), we have begun to see some signs of potential softening as we head into fiscal 2026&#8230;&#8221;
In response to the challenging market, KeyBanc downgraded Simulations Plus from Overweight to Sector Weight. Analyst Scott Schoenhaus commented, &#8220;While we believe these challenges affect SLP more sharply given its customer concentration and biotech exposure, we also thought there would be opportunities with the most recent Proficiency acquisition that gave us hope that organic revenue growth could re-accelerate toward high-single digits next year (FY26) off easier comps.&#8221;
KeyBanc anticipates continued weak customer demand in the near to mid-term, with no clear signs of a biotech market rebound. This makes predicting a recovery difficult and a higher valuation hard to justify, prompting the firm to significantly cut its estimates and lower its valuation target to account for these risks and uncertainties.
Price Action: SLP stock is trading lower by 25% to $13.10 at last check Tuesday.

<h2>How Are Analyst Ratings Determined?</h2>
Analysts are specialists within banking and financial systems that typically report for specific stocks or within defined sectors. These people research company financial statements, sit in conference calls and meetings, and speak with relevant insiders to determine what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts will rate each stock once a quarter. 
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

U.S. stock futures were lower on Monday after ending on a negative note on Friday. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower.
President Donald Trump, in a telephone interview with NBC News' &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; moderator Kristen Welker, asserted that &#8220;The tariffs have been very well received.&#8221; He believes that if a 10% tariff can generate around $300 billion annually, a 20% rate could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46386524/trump-wants-blanket-tariffs-of-up-to-20-after-surprise-treasury-surplus-in-june-ed-yardeni-says-don">double that intake</a>. 
Meanwhile, the European Union was ready with a prepared list of tariffs worth 21 billion euros ($24.52 billion) on U.S. goods if the two sides fail to reach a trade deal, reported Reuters, highlighting Italy&#8217;s Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani&#8216;s comments. 
He also issued, latest threats to impose a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46384885/peter-schiff-gives-trumps-30-tariff-threa">30% tariff on all imports</a> from Mexico and the EU. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) scaled fresh highs on Monday as the cryptocurrency hit a fresh high of $123,091.61 per coin.
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.42% and the two-year bond was at 3.89%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool&#8217;s</a> projections show markets pricing a 93.3% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its July meeting.

The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, were lower in premarket on Monday.

Cues From Last Session:
On Friday, while most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed lower, notably financial, health care, and materials stocks recorded the steepest declines, energy and consumer discretionary stocks defied the broader market downturn, concluding the session higher.
This mixed performance occurred a day after the S&amp;P 500 reached a new record high, ultimately leading U.S. stocks to settle lower.
The broader market reflected these losses over the past week, with the Dow Jones dropping 1% and the S&amp;P by 0.3%.
Fueling market jitters, Trump signaled a more aggressive trade stance, announcing a 35% tariff on Canadian imports effective Aug. 1, alongside proposed blanket duties of 15% to 20% on most other trading partners.
In corporate news, WD-40 Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDFC#NASDAQ">WDFC</a>) reported better-than-expected earnings for its third quarter, though its sales figures fell short of estimates.

Jim Cramer in an X post reflected his concern over tariffs linked to Trump&#8217;s policies.

Meanwhile, Ed Yardeni from Yardeni Research highlighted the surplus of just over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46386524/trump-wants-blanket-tariffs-of-up-to-20-after-surprise-treasury-surplus-in-june-ed-yardeni-says-don">$27 billion in June</a>, reported by the U.S. Treasury Department, saying that Trump "must have loved the headline… ‘Treasury posts unexpected surplus in June as tariff receipts surge."
However, he warned that tariffs are essentially "a tax on U.S. importers," which can erode corporate profit margins and profits. While rebounding productivity growth might offer some offset, the potential impact on businesses remains a significant concern.
Adding about the market reaction to tariffs, Yardeni said, &#8220;The selloffs in the bond and stock markets back then forced Trump to deescalate his trade war. That's not happening now—not so far at least. This undoubtedly is emboldening Trump.&#8221;
Speculating on how the financial markets will respond this week to his latest escalation, Yardeni said that perhaps investors have learned that Trump's huffing and puffing is simply the way he negotiates trade deals.
&#8220;They are betting that it will work and result in lots of deals. They've also learned that Trump can change his mind often. So if some trade deals aren't coming together fast enough, he'll settle on a vague letter of understanding to work out a deal over time.&#8221;
The risk for the economy and investors is that Trump has concluded that if the financial markets aren't going to be vigilant about his trade war, then he can proceed with it unchecked, explained Yardeni. &#8220;If so, then TTT (Trump&#8217;s Tariff Turmoil) will last past the summer.&#8221;
Yardeni said in a LinkedIn <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/trumps-reign-tariffs-aint-over-edward-yardeni-eshve/">post</a>, &#8220;Then again, investors may agree with our current view that &#8216;this too shall pass&#8217; by the end of the summer: The economy will remain resilient, and inflation will remain surprisingly moderate. It all adds up to a relatively normal seasonal pattern, with the stock market weak during the late summer through the fall followed by a year-end rally to 6500 in our scenario.&#8221;
