C3.ai (NYSE:AI), a prominent player in the enterprise AI application software sector, experienced a staggering 30% drop in its stock price on Monday, following the release of its preliminary first-quarter results. The numbers revealed a significant shortfall that has sent shockwaves through investor circles and raised concerns about the company’s future trajectory.
For the quarter ending July 31, 2025, C3.ai reported preliminary revenue figures between $70.2 million and $70.4 million. This performance was not only a dramatic 33% below the company’s own guidance but also marked a 19% decline compared to the same period last year.
