31% of all revenue comes from a single line: Total Sensor and Effector Applications.

Revenue is spread across several lines; no single product carries the company.

Revenue last year:
$983.6M
The loss that same year:
$29.7M
Sales don’t cover the costs; the gap drains from the cash pile every year.

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:
$214.3M
DEBT: $487.3M
At this pace, that money lasts about 7.2 years.

At this burn rate the cash pile isn’t the pressing question — for now, time is on the company’s side.

THE PRICE TAG
MARKET VALUE / ANNUAL SALES
4.9×

Against companies in its own sector, it looks cheaper than 20% of them.

Analysts' average target sits 44% above today's price.

FINALE · THE GRADE
C
49 / 100 · MoonshotScore

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

The takeaway: MRCY’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.

Analysts’ average target sits above today’s price, yet the valuation grade (20/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
