How does the $13.6 million revenue for Q2 compare to the same period last year and to Wall Street consensus estimates?

Answer

The press release you referenced only reports the second‑quarter 2025 (Q2 2025) revenue as $13.6 million and provides a few related operating‑metric updates (backlog, growth expectations, and the target to become EBITDA‑positive in H1 2026).

However, the release does **not include:**

  1. Q2 2024 (the same quarter in the prior year) revenue – there’s no figure given for how much Velo3D earned in Q2 2024.
  2. Wall‑Street consensus estimates for Q2 2025 revenue – the statement does not mention analysts’ expectations or any “beat/miss” commentary.

Because those two data points are missing, we cannot calculate a year‑over‑year change or a performance‑vs‑consensus comparison from the information provided in this specific news item.

How you could obtain the missing figures

What you need Where to find it
Q2 2024 revenue (to assess year‑over‑year growth) • Velo3D’s prior quarterly earnings release (typically posted on the company’s investor‑relations website).
• Historical financial statements filed with the SEC (e.g., Form 10‑Q for the quarter ending 2024‑06‑30).
Wall‑Street consensus estimate for Q2 2025 • Financial data platforms such as Bloomberg, FactSet, Thomson Reuters, or S&P Capital IQ, which aggregate analyst forecasts.
• Analyst research reports that cover Velo3D (often referenced in earnings preview articles).

Once you have those numbers, the comparison can be expressed as:

  • Year‑over‑year change:

    [
    \text{YoY\%} = \frac{\text{Q2 2025 revenue} - \text{Q2 2024 revenue}}{\text{Q2 2024 revenue}} \times 100\%
    ]

  • Performance vs. consensus:

    [
    \text{% vs. consensus} = \frac{\text{Q2 2025 revenue} - \text{Consensus estimate}}{\text{Consensus estimate}} \times 100\%
    ]

If you retrieve the missing data, plug the numbers into the formulas above to get a precise quantitative answer.

Bottom line

Based solely on the Velo3D Q2 2025 press release you provided, we can confirm that the company reported $13.6 million in revenue for the quarter.

But without the prior‑year figure and analyst consensus, we cannot determine how that amount compares to the same period last year or to Wall Street’s expectations. You’ll need to source those additional data points from Velo3D’s historical filings or a financial‑data service to complete the comparison.
