I report the spectroscopic classification of ASASSN-25cm (=AT 2025nlr). Its optical spectrum was obtained on 2025-06-14.745 UT by the Mookodi (Erasmus et al. 2024) mounted on the 1-m Lesedi telescope at the South African Astronomical Observatory in Sutherland. The observation setups were 2" slit, wavelength coverage 4000-8000ā«, and spectral resolution R~400.
