Stock Track | Viasat Plummets 5.09% as Needham Slashes Price Target

Stock Track

May 22, 2025

Viasat (VSAT) shares tumbled 5.09% in pre-market trading on Thursday, following a significant downgrade in its price target by Needham analysts. The sharp decline comes as investors react to the reduced outlook for the satellite communications company.

Needham, a respected Wall Street research firm, cut its target price for Viasat from $19 to $16, representing a substantial 15.8% reduction. This adjustment reflects growing concerns about the company's near-term prospects and potential challenges in the satellite communications sector.

The markdown in Viasat's stock price highlights the impact of analyst revisions on investor sentiment. As the market digests this new information, it remains to be seen how Viasat will address these concerns and what strategies the company might employ to regain investor confidence in the coming weeks.
