Investment Highlights Why It Matters Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?

1. Generates cash flow

The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.

2. Riding a trend

Think Tesla during the pandemic of 2020 when EVs were riding a cultural high, or Nvidia in the current AI boom, or even Figma. These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

Why The Stock Moved


Qualitative Assessment

AI Generated Analysis | Feedback

Here are the key points for why Beam Global (BEEM) stock moved by -29.2% for the approximate time period from August 31, 2025, to December 4, 2025: 1. Disappointing Q2 2025 Financial Results

Beam Global reported GAAP revenue of $7.1 million for the second quarter of 2025, which missed analyst estimates of $7.25 million. This represented a significant 52.0% decrease in revenue compared to Q2 2024, partly attributed to a reduction in U.S. federal government orders, prompting the company to accelerate its shift towards commercial and private sector clients. 2. Missed Q3 2025 Earnings and Revenue Estimates

For the third quarter of 2025, the company reported earnings per share (EPS) of -$0.28, missing the consensus analyst estimate of -$0.25. Quarterly revenue also fell short of expectations, coming in at $5.79 million against a consensus estimate of $8.45 million.
