Analysts warn that the fast-rising shares carry a steep sales multiple despite the company’s rapid expansion.

Overview

  • Shares have rebounded sharply in recent months, including a 282% surge from April lows and additional gains following the Telarus news.
  • The company reported 217% year-over-year revenue growth to $42.7 million in Q2 and cites a roughly $1.2 billion backlog spanning multiple industries.
  • Management targets adjusted EBITDA breakeven by late 2025 as it scales deployments in restaurants, autos, and broader enterprise channels.
