The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) is starting the week positively. In afternoon trade, the benchmark index is up 0.3% to 7,576.4 points.

Four ASX shares that have failed to follow the market's lead are listed below. Here's why they are falling:

Boss Energy Ltd (ASX: BOE)

The Boss Energy share price is down 7% to $5.20. Investors have been selling this uranium developer's shares partly in response to a broker note out of Bell Potter. According to the release, the broker has downgraded its shares to a speculative hold rating but with an improved price target of $6.41. It said: "We upgrade our valuation to $6.41/sh (previously $5.69/sh) on changes to our price outlook, and downgrade BOE to Speculative Hold (from speculative Buy) as the stock has out-performed peers."

Calix Ltd (ASX: CXL)

The Calix share price is down 21% to $1.84. This morning, this environmental technology company announced that the Leilac-2 project will move to another Heidelberg Materials' site following a decision by Heidelberg Materials to end clinker production at its Hanover cement plant. Calix and its subsidiary, Leilac, are currently working with Heidelberg Materials to identify a suitable new site for the project as soon as possible.

Frontier Digital Ventures Ltd (ASX: FDV)

The Frontier Digital share price is down 9.5% to 48 cents. Investors have been selling this digital listings company's shares following the release of its quarterly update. Although the company posted a 3.9% quarter on quarter increase in revenue, its EBITDA was down 23%.

Gold Road Resources Ltd (ASX: GOR)

The Gold Road share price is down 16% to $1.44. This follows the release of the gold miner's quarterly update this morning. Management revealed that its production was lower quarter on quarter due to delays accessing higher grade ore from the open pit. In addition, labour availability impacted the ore mining rate.
