About Ouster
Ouster makes the 3D eyes for robots and smart machines. Its laser sensors, cameras and software help warehouse robots, farm equipment and traffic systems see and understand the world around them, a bit like giving a machine both eyes and a brain for vision.
The case for and against
Both sides of the story, in plain English.
- Fast Growth
Revenue jumped 56% year over year to 55 million dollars last quarter, the 14th quarter in a row of product growth. The company shipped more than 17,000 sensors in one quarter, up from about 5,500 a year earlier.
- Cash Cushion
After raising money this summer, Ouster holds roughly 450 million dollars in cash and investments. That is a big cushion for a company still losing money, and it lowers the odds it runs short while its new Rev8 sensor ramps up.
- Still Losing Money
Ouster lost 18 million dollars last quarter and its net margin is about negative 26%. Management has not promised a profit date, so investors are paying today for growth that may take until 2028 to turn into earnings.
- Dilution and Swings
Shares outstanding rose from about 61 million to 72 million in just over six months, which shrinks each existing owner's slice. One customer made up about 32% of sales, and the stock is very volatile, so big swings in both directions are normal.
