Caveats

What the score does not capture, or where the data is weak.
Price USD 0.972 (2/10-2026). 123.6m shares (stockanalysis; 119.1m at 30/6-2026) give a market cap of about USD 120m (about DKK 791m); Nordnet's DKK 929m corresponds to about 145m shares, which fits continued issuance via the GEM equity line and repayment of the convertible note in shares since August - the share count is probably higher than 123.6m. Going concern warning ('substantial doubt') in the Q2 2026 10-Q, defaulted federal excise tax (USD 11.1m) and property tax. NYSE notice 24/7-2026 (price below USD 1), reverse split approved by shareholders. No classic ATM, but an equity line with GEM (USD 251.4m drawn + 72.5m in advance), and the loan terms require at least 30m of ATM/equity line capacity. Analyst price target of USD 4.93 (+407%, 4 analysts) is stale after the 78% price fall. Industry: regional aviation, charter and software (SurfOS), closest to 'Transport & logistics'; cyclical (aviation).
