Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Voltatron AG specializes in providing electronics and electromobility solutions for industrial applications both in Germany and internationally, with a market capitalization of approximately €97.94 million.
Operations: Voltatron AG has not reported any specific revenue segments.
Market Cap: €97.94M
Voltatron AG, with a market cap of €97.94 million, has shown improved financial performance recently, reporting a net income of €1.2 million for the nine months ended September 2025 compared to a loss the previous year. Despite being unprofitable overall, it maintains a positive cash flow and sufficient cash runway for over three years. However, its high volatility and short-term asset coverage issues pose risks. The company's board is relatively inexperienced with an average tenure under one year, and while its debt levels have increased over five years, it holds more cash than total debt.
Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: MotorK plc offers software-as-a-service solutions for the automotive retail industry across Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and the Benelux Union, with a market cap of €203.93 million.
Operations: The company generates €40.62 million in revenue from its Software & Programming segment.
Market Cap: €203.93M
MotorK plc, with a market cap of €203.93 million, operates in the automotive retail software sector across several European countries. Despite being unprofitable and experiencing increased losses over the past five years, it has managed to significantly reduce its debt to equity ratio from very high levels. Recent funding of €3 million through private placements bolsters its cash position, although short-term assets still fall short of covering liabilities. The management team is relatively new with an average tenure under one year, while the board is more seasoned. Share price volatility remains higher than most Dutch stocks.
Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★
Overview: KebNi AB (publ) specializes in developing, producing, and selling stabilization, navigation, and satellite communication products globally with a market cap of SEK446.55 million.
Operations: The company's revenue primarily comes from its Unclassified Services segment, totaling SEK147.92 million.
Market Cap: SEK446.55M
KebNi AB, with a market cap of SEK446.55 million, has shown significant financial improvement by becoming profitable over the past year. The company reported third-quarter revenue of SEK33.48 million, marking an increase from the previous year and achieving a net income of SEK0.938 million compared to a prior loss. Despite its low return on equity at 7.9%, KebNi's debt-free status and strong asset position provide financial stability, covering both short- and long-term liabilities comfortably. However, high share price volatility persists alongside an inexperienced board with an average tenure of 1.7 years despite experienced management at 3.9 years tenure.
