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
For the approximate time period from July 31, 2025, to today (November 18, 2025), Kornit Digital (KRNT) stock experienced a -35.1% movement, influenced by several key factors.
1. Deterioration in GAAP Profitability and Gross Margins: Kornit Digital reported a deepening GAAP net loss of $2.6 million, or ($0.06) per share, for Q3 2025, compared to a net loss of $0.9 million, or ($0.02) per share, in Q3 2024. Additionally, GAAP gross profit margin declined to 43.5% from 47.7% in the prior year, with non-GAAP gross margin also decreasing to 45.8% from 50.3%. This decline was attributed to factors such as inventory-related adjustments, U.S. tariff costs, and lower service gross margin.
2. Slower Revenue Growth Outlook and Persistent Unprofitability: While Q3 2025 revenue grew 5% year-over-year to $53.1 million, analysts noted that Kornit's projected revenue growth of 2.9% per year is forecast to grow slower than the broader U.S. market (10.4% per year). Concerns were also highlighted regarding the company's sustained unprofitability, with forecasts indicating it would remain unprofitable over the next three years.
