AstroNova, Inc., a microcap company in the IT - Hardware sector, has reached a new 52-week low of USD 7.33 as of December 3, 2025. This decline marks a significant downturn for the company, which has seen its stock price drop by 56.67% over the past year, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's performance of 12.94% during the same period.
The company's financial metrics reveal a challenging landscape. AstroNova has reported a negative net profit of USD -0.55 million, reflecting a 45.48% decrease, and has experienced a slight decline in net sales of 0.3%. The return on equity stands at -1.99%, indicating inefficiencies in management and profitability.
