In afternoon trade, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) is on course to end the week with a small decline. At the time of writing, the benchmark index is down 0.2% to 8,735.1 points.
Four ASX shares that are falling more than most today are listed below. Here's why they are ending the week in the red:
4DMedical Ltd (ASX: 4DX)
The 4DMedical share price is down almost 11% to $4.08. This is despite the respiratory imaging technology company announcing that its non-contrast ventilation-perfusion imaging solution, CT:VQ, has been approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). The TGA has also included the product in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which enables commercial deployment across Australia. Broad weakness in the tech sector on Friday could be overshadowing this news.
Centuria Capital Group (ASX: CNI)
The Centuria Capital share price is down 2.5% to $1.98. This has been driven by the property company's shares going ex-dividend this morning for its latest payout. Eligible shareholders can now look forward to receiving Centuria Capital's 5.2 cents per share final dividend in a couple of months. The company is expecting to make the payment on 27 August.
Judo Capital Holdings Ltd (ASX: JDO)
The Judo Capital share price is down a further 1.5% to 90 cents. This small business lender's shares have been sold off this week after it increased its cost of risk and downgraded its earnings guidance. Judo Capital revealed that it now expects its FY 2026 cost of risk to be in the range of $116 million to $122 million. This has been caused by three exposures across different sectors that have recently emerged. As for its earnings, Judo Capital now expects its profit before tax in FY 2026 to be between $163 million and $169 million. This is down from its previous guidance of between $180 million and $190 million. The company's CEO, Chris Bayliss, said: "While today's update is partly a result of the macro environment, it is nevertheless disappointing."
Worley Ltd (ASX: WOR)
The Worley share price is down 4% to $10.64. This may have been driven by the release of a broker note out of Ord Minnett. According to the note, the broker has downgraded the professional services company's shares to a hold rating (from accumulate) with a trimmed price target of $12.70 (from $13.10). This was driven by a profit guidance downgrade this week due to the negative impacts of the Middle East conflict.
