Free Float
3.1%
Very low free float
— 3.1% of shares trade freely, ~96.9% held by insiders/institutions
Thinly traded — expect wider bid-ask spreads and sharp price swings on modest volume. Institutional investors may avoid due to liquidity constraints.
Small absolute float (0.0M shares) — even with a decent free float %, volume can be thin. Check average daily volume before sizing a position.
Price History (1 Year)
Revenue & Net Income Trend
The directional story — useful even when net income is negative.
Revenue
The top line — total sales before any costs or taxes are subtracted. A measure of how much business the company is doing.
Net Income
The bottom line — profit left after subtracting all expenses, interest, and taxes from revenue. Reflects accounting profitability, but includes non-cash items like depreciation, so it isn't the same as cash earned.
Operating Cash Flow
The real cash generated by the day-to-day business — selling products, paying suppliers, collecting from customers. Calculated from net income by adding back non-cash items and adjusting for timing (unpaid bills, unsold inventory). When OCF consistently lags net income, the reported profit may not be converting to real money.
