Also have earnings after the bell this evening.
As predicted 1 month ago: Next stop, $1.
Hopefully the H&S plays out soon. Would love to see some growth, but the company needs strong guidance.
I want them to succeed, I am holding some shares and believe in the tech, but its been in a descending triangle for a while. Its looking like we'll go back to the $4 range soon unless market sentiment changes soon
According to their latest financial report, sales are down 60%+. the only thing that increased are intangible assets, aka "fairy dust", and debt. they even managed to make a gross loss on purchasing alone. R&D expenses greater than revenues. Marketing expenses greater than revenues. General and administrative greater than R&D and marketing combined, and twice revenues. Overall expenditures 4x of revenues, while having a 60% decline in sales, is so bad it's an achievement in and of itself. All while *checks notes* the CFO was replaced.
And people wonder why the earnings call was short? This is going from hilarious to potentially criminal. No wonder Matus jumped ship.
Let's see if the bounce can hold!
None of the items in isolation are huge red flags. But if they bought these companies for the "tech", then why are they still paying so much to make their drones? Seems like they bought companies that can be repackaged as a story to be sold to investors, while they overpay for actual tech from 3rd parties. Raw material prices are slightly below revenues - hard to make a profit that way.
Just read the financial reports. You'll quickly find it hard to explain your opinion to yourself :)
I appreciate the insight to your views. Companies that get absorbed having their leadership leave isn't a huge red flag, depends if they are buying the company for the team or the tech.
I think the country is shifting towards robotics and drones and it will be the future, not all will succeed but some will and I think RCAT has strong relationships to build that pathway. Are there other drone companies you are looking at as well?
no profits despite revenue growth. it has always been a leadership departure (every company that got bought the owners have departed).
full disclosure: I've always been bearish on this company, and I always said anytime it goes above $1 is a good time to short it. I was wrong for a while, but the fundamentals haven't changed: more debt, more losses, more dilution. this is only going to go one way. and the people running the scam will enrich themselves.
Why do you think its only worth $1? I see a lot of potential in this company and the product they are making.
definitely.
See you at $1 :)
Yeah - its looking like a good time to load some more shares for me!
$RCAT $5.46 +1.46% on watch here.
... like old wine :)
I'm more concerned they'll do another R/S. Any information / thoughts on that?
Huh?
What do you mean: "They have Teal on a secondary contract, dilutive.
Sold shares go to shareholders not into company."
What is the secondary contract?
Why is it dilutive?
Who is selling shares?
Why would shares go into company?
Confusing.
They have Teal on a secondary contract, dilutive.
Sold shares go to shareholders not into company.
That's why the execs are cashing out.

Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RCAT) ("Red Cat" or the "Company"), a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government, and commercial operations, today announced it has secured new orders for its Edge 130 drone from the Army National Guard and another U.S. Government Agency (OGA), totaling $518,000.
FlightWave, a leading provider of VTOL drone, sensor and software solutions was acquired by Red Cat in September 2024. The acquisition brought FlightWave’s flagship drone, the Edge 130 Blue into its family of low-cost, portable unmanned reconnaissance and precision lethal strike systems. FlightWave’s size, weight and vertical take off capabilities makes it ideal for maritime operations and littoral environments.
The combined orders, which amount to 12 Edge 130 drones, reflect Red Cat’s continued momentum in providing advanced drone technology solutions to key defense and security customers. The Edge 130 is known for its robust capabilities, including long-endurance flight times, AI-driven surveillance features, and operational effectiveness in a variety of mission-critical environments.
“These new orders further validate the performance and unique capabilities of the Edge 130 as part of our Family of Systems and reinforce our position as a trusted provider of drone solutions for government and military applications,” said Jeff Thompson, Red Cat CEO. “We are expanding our manufacturing capacity for the Edge 130 to accelerate this momentum and remain committed to supporting U.S. government agencies with the industry’s best technology that enhances their mission capabilities and success.”
The Edge 130 Blue is a UAS-certified military-grade tricopter for long-range mapping, inspection, surveillance, and reconnaissance needs. Designed specifically for government and military applications, the Edge 130 Blue can be assembled and hand-launched in just one minute by a single user to capture high-accuracy aerial imagery with medium-range autonomy. Weighing in at only 1200g, the Edge has a 60+ minute flight time in forward mode, an industry-leading endurance among all other Blue UAS-approved drones available.

Oh wise one, thank you for your .83 bump up today.
because RCAT was always going to be an exit vehicle, and he got out at the best time. Others are probably selling into this as well. Just look at the financials: their margins don't increase with increasing revenues, they don't invest into infrastructure (which would explain the former), and their balance sheet keeps deteriorating in the most profitable market situation they will ever see. In addition, look into the CEO a bit and his past dealings. That short sell report was extremely superficial and didn't really highlight any of the real problems with RCAT.
to be fair, I've underestimated how far this stock has rallied and I was lucky to not get caught on the short end of it. but the general statement still holds true: the further this deviates from $1, the better the opportunity to short it. If you believe that this is a 600M company, I've got a lot of snake oil that you must buy!
$8.70 ......
....December 16, 2024 - Red Cat secures key military drone contract and Palantir partnership, projects $80-120M revenue for 2025. ..Red Cat Military Projects
Red Cat, a drone technology company, is involved in several significant military projects:
U.S. Army Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) Program: Red Cat’s Teal Drones were selected as the production provider for the U.S. Army’s SRR Program of Record. This selection followed a rigorous test and evaluation process conducted by the Army Project Management Office for Uncrewed Aircraft Systems, the Army Maneuver Battle Lab, the Army Test and Evaluation Command, and the Army Operational Test Center. The Teal Drones, specifically the Black Widow and WEB models, were chosen due to their soldier feedback, technical performance, scalability, and cost.
Red Cat Futures Initiative (RFI): Red Cat announced the formation of the RFI, an independent, industry-wide consortium of robotics and autonomous systems partners dedicated to providing advanced and interoperable uncrewed aircraft systems to warfighters. This initiative aims to bridge critical technology gaps for military personnel.
Palantir Partnership: Red Cat partnered with Palantir Technologies to integrate Visual Navigation software (VNav) into Red Cat’s Black Widow drones. This collaboration aims to transform autonomous sUAS operations for modern warfare by utilizing Palantir’s advanced AI software, potentially creating a superior Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) platform.
ARACHNID™ Family of Systems: Red Cat’s ARACHNID™ family of unmanned systems includes the Black Widow, which won the U.S. Army SRR contract. These drones are designed for electronic warfare operations and have a modular architecture for swift adaptation to mission requirements, such as short-range reconnaissance.
FANG™ Drone: Part of the ARACHNID™ family, the FANG™ drone is the industry’s first line of NDAA compliant FPV drones optimized for military operations with precision strike capabilities.
These projects highlight Red Cat’s focus on advancing drone technologies and providing critical situational awareness and enhanced effectiveness and safety for military and security operations.....
RCAT grabbed the $8.60s dip at $9s now definirá a Trump Stargate play along with PDYN
I assume that the recently published misinformation that Red Cat will address has to do with the "Kerrisdale Capital" short report.
I look forward to hearing/reading Red Cat response ... some of the sentiment in that report made me a bit skittish, so I reluctantly lightened up a bit on my RCAT shares, and now waiting to see how things shakes out. If the share price drops much further, the bargain hunter in me will likely cause me to buy back in.
I was not even aware that George Matus departed Red Cat Holdings for a CTO position at Vector ... I wonder why?
RCAT ! SOME FOLKS HAVE AGENDAS ! I get home an see OPT# has a lawsuit as well. Fyi RGT# got one as well the same day as RCAT damn democrats dont quit !! .....if im lying ......im dying !!
Thanks Dennis for the short chuckle. For the past umteenth years, disgrunted nobodies will sue the company with the help of ambulance chasers.
RCAT !! I LIKE -IT !! ALOT !! ....IF IM LYING ...im dying....
Red Cat and Palladyne AI Announce First Successful Multi-Drone Collaborative Autonomous Flight
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/palladyne-ai-red-cat-announce-140000403.html
smart move in hindsight
"Do you need to say more?" .... Sure: please say more.
Since I do not believe that your reply answers or addresses my question? Here it is again:
Question: will the more recent announced collaboration with Palantir (PLTR) possibly diminish the extent of the RCAT/PDYN collaboration (since they both involve software to be used on the RCAT drones)?
In other words:
I am curious whether Palladyne will have less to gain/profit from their collaboration with Red Cat, as a result of the subsequent announcement of Red Cat collaboration with Palantir.
I'm a nobody but RCAT is only starting to fire on all cylinders. Need I say more.
Prior to Red Cat SSR win, I read about RCAT & Pallayne (PDYN) collaboration. I bought a little of PDYN, and a lot more of RCAT ... in part because I had done a bit more DD on RCAT, and could not estimate how much the above collaboration might translate to increased revenues/profit for PDYN. I actually sold it after a quick 50% gain, from $2 to $3.
Question: will the more recent announced collaboration with Palantir (PLTR) possibly diminish the extent of the RCAT/PDYN collaboration (since they both involve software to be used on the RCAT drones)?

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (RCAT:OTC) today announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire Fat Shark Holdings, the market leader in FPV headsets. The transaction, subject to customary conditions, is expected to close on or before November 1, 2020.
Founded in 2007, Fat Shark is the leading provider of headsets and goggles for professional racers and drone pilots with an estimated market share of 85%. Fat Shark is presently generating approximately $7 million (unaudited) in annual revenues which will significantly increase the revenue base of the combined companies. This transaction follows the Company's acquisition in January 2020 of Rotor Riot, a leading provider of FPV and drone racing hardware.
"Our expected acquisition of Fat Shark strengthens our position by providing direct access to premier FPV technology favored by professional racers and drone enthusiasts alike. The combination not only provides a fully-integrated supply chain but adds design and development capabilities as well as international manufacturing and distribution. Greg French and Allan Evans bring world-renowned skills and decades of experience to our team. Fat Shark's existing digital platform and innovation also provides a valuable road map to fuel our future growth and our expansion into the enterprise drone market" stated Jeff Thompson, CEO of Red Cat. "Importantly, it positions us to continue to develop and introduce innovative products and solutions as commercial applications of drone technology expand in the coming years."
"Red Cat has emerged as a leader in the FPV sector of the drone industry and we are excited to join their growing team of business professionals" noted Greg French, founder and CTO of Fat Shark. Added Allan Evans, CEO of Fat Shark "We are excited to partner and integrate feedback from the top pilots at Rotor Riot as we develop and expand our digital video systems. Rotor Riot is especially well situated to help us build better FPV products as well as expand into enterprise training and field solutions."
"With the addition of Fat Shark to Red Cat's portfolio we have paired a quality hardware base with Rotor Riot, a robust educational/entertainment brand" stated Chad Kapper CEO of Rotor Riot. "Fat Shark's new line of digital headsets with their "out of the box" functionality meshes perfectly with our popular "Ready To Fly" (RTF) packages. We are excited to promote their functionality on our YouTube channel and our digital store at www.rotorriot.com as well as leverage the strong brand recognition Rotor Riot enjoys. We believe the addition also allows us to continue expansion into the emerging gaming and augmented reality (AR) markets with future innovative products."
