on the stock market since 2006
454 employees
$3.8B market value
Revenue last year:
$1.1B
The loss that same year:
$435.1M
For every $1 it earns, the company spends $1.4.

The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.

In the vault right now:
$687.3M
DEBT: $85.1M
At this pace, that money lasts about 1.6 years.

Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. This is the most critical line in the whole picture.

GROWTH
37
weak

Clearly below the class average.

PRICE MOMENTUM
84
very strong

The stock has been running stronger than the market lately.

WORTH WATCHING

THE RISKS · 1/2
Lost money last year

A loss of $435.1M against $1.1B in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.

THE RISKS · 2/2
The cash has a countdown

FINALE · THE GRADE
F
21 / 100 · MoonshotScore

On our five-subject report card, BTE sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”

The takeaway: BTE’s sales are going backwards, and it closed last year at a loss. The road back runs through both.

The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
