On the stock market since 2018, it operates in the world of technology. It has 800 employees. Now — the numbers.
The company is still in the product-building phase: its spending runs above its sales. That only changes once the product starts selling at scale.
That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.
No real growth (-1% a year). Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.
Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. For now, time is on the company’s side.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Clearly below the class average.
Debt is low and cash is strong; the finances stand solid.
Clearly below the class average.
There is growth, but not at top-of-the-class tempo.
Clearly below the class average.
Price Momentum: The stock has lagged the market in recent months; investor interest is weak right now.
Valuation: The stock trades at a price that looks expensive next to its earnings; that can cap future returns.
The stock trades 44% below its peak. The market has trimmed its expectations for the company.
Sales run at $261.3M a year. A small number, but proof the product has real buyers.
There is $133.6M in the vault; even if every debt were paid off, $97.4M would remain.
It met or beat analyst expectations in 7 of the last 8 quarters — consistency is a promise kept.
A loss of $23.5M against $261.3M in annual sales.
This stock swings about 2.3 times as much as the market average. Big rallies — and big drops — can both happen fast.
Over the last 12 months, executives reported 115 sells against just 19 buys. Not an alarm bell by itself, but a number worth watching.
On our five-subject report card, LASR sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”
The takeaway: LASR is a high-risk stock — not yet profitable, and its future rides on its product catching on.
The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
Analysts’ average target sits above today’s price, yet the valuation grade (39/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
