Did the company provide updated guidance for FY2025 or the next quarter, and how does it compare to prior forecasts?

Guidance update – No, Kestrel Group did not issue new guidance

The press‑release is strictly a “second‑quarter‑ended‑June 30 2025” earnings announcement. It presents the Q2 results and points investors to the full quarterly report for details, but it does not contain any forward‑looking guidance for the remainder of FY 2025 or for the upcoming quarter. Consequently, the company’s FY 2025 outlook and next‑quarter expectations remain unchanged from the guidance it previously issued (the FY 2025 outlook that was last communicated in the Q1 2025 release and the FY 2024 guidance set earlier in the year).

Trading implications

• Fundamentals: With no fresh guidance, the market must rely on the Q2 performance to gauge any shift in the longer‑term trajectory. If the quarter beat or missed consensus expectations, the price will react to the earnings surprise rather than a revised outlook.
  
• Technical: The stock has been trading in a tight range around its recent 52‑week high/lows. A clear earnings beat could trigger a breakout to the upside (if volume confirms), while a miss may push the price back toward the lower trend‑line support near the 20‑day moving average.
  
• Actionable view: Until Kestrel releases an updated FY 2025 or next‑quarter forecast, the prudent approach is to focus on the Q2 results versus consensus estimates. A positive earnings surprise may justify a short‑term long position with a tight stop just below the recent swing low; a miss would warrant a defensive stance or a short‑term short with a stop above the recent swing high. Keep an eye on any forthcoming guidance in the next quarterly release, as that will be the catalyst for a more decisive directional move.
