In each lane the line is the rule's threshold, the dot is the stock's value and the bar between them is the gap. Market cap, price and volume use a log scale: one step is ten times. A value beyond the end sits at the edge as an open dot.

Weaknesses

  • The price is 56.4% below its 52-week high.
  • Share count up + 160.3% in a year; existing holders are being diluted.
  • Revenue grew + 1,235.4% year over year last quarter; the rate comes largely from a low base.
  • At least one margin is negative; operating margin −112.4%.
  • Burning cash; at this pace cash lasts about 8.0 years.

Strengths

  • Market cap of $3.88 B, comfortably above the size floor.
  • Share price of $6.67, outside penny-stock territory.
  • About 73.9 M shares trade a day; positions open and close easily.
  • Earned $0.31 per share over the last twelve months.
  • Current ratio of 9.85; short-term obligations are well covered.
  • Debt to equity of 0.00; a light debt load.
  • The price is 34.6% above its 52-week low.
  • Net insider buying over the last six months.
  • + 153.4% upside to the average target.
  • The last earnings analysis scored 78 / 100.

Next Steps

  1. The company is burning cash. Look for the funding plan (debt, share issuance, cash buffer) in the last report.
  2. The stock is far from its high. Do not treat it as cheap before finding why it fell (results, competition, sector); wait for the price to confirm a turn.
  3. The growth rate is unusually high, most likely off a very low base last year. Read how much revenue and profit grew in dollars, not the rate.
  4. The share count is rising. Check how much growth stays per share: buybacks or new issuance?
  5. Write down the concrete reason for growth: a new product, a contract, management or an industry shift. If you cannot say it in one sentence, waiting may be the better choice.

What You Should Check

  1. Is there a concrete reason for growth, and can you say it in one sentence?
  2. Where does the valuation sit against sector peers?
  3. Does the chart confirm the trend, or are you fighting a falling price?
  4. Is the position size within the loss you could bear if you are wrong?

The score averages the measurable rules with category weights: growth 30, price strength 20, profitability 15, health 15, ownership 10, catalysts 10. A pass counts in full, a caution half; rules we cannot measure stay out. A stock that hits an elimination rule is capped at 45. Growth above 300% counts as a base effect and is marked as a caution.
