Overview: The Real Brokerage Inc. operates as a real estate technology company in the United States and Canada, with a market cap of $946.31 million.
Operations: The company generates revenue primarily from its North American Brokerage segment, which accounts for $1.09 billion.
Market Cap: $946.31M
Real Brokerage, with a market cap of US$946.31 million, is currently unprofitable but maintains over three years of cash runway due to positive free cash flow. Despite trading at 55.3% below estimated fair value and lacking long-term liabilities, it has seen shareholder dilution and significant insider selling recently. The company reported sales of US$372.49 million for Q3 2024 but incurred a net loss of US$2.59 million, reflecting ongoing financial challenges despite revenue growth forecasts of 23.51% annually. Recent strategic moves include expanding its agent base with ROVI Homes and launching innovative tools like Real Wallet and Leo CoPilot to enhance agent operations.

The company has become profitable recently and maintains strong financial health with short-term assets exceeding both long-term and short-term liabilities. Its debt is well covered by operating cash flow, and it trades at a good value relative to peers despite low return on equity. Ceragon's earnings guidance for 2024 anticipates revenue growth between 12% to 15%, bolstered by its acquisition of Siklu.
Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★

Butterfly Network, with a market cap of US$662.62 million, has been gaining attention after being added to the S&P Healthcare Equipment Select Industry Index. Despite reporting revenue growth with Q3 2024 figures at US$20.56 million, the company remains unprofitable and is not expected to achieve profitability in the near term. However, it maintains a strong balance sheet with short-term assets of US$199.5 million covering both short-term and long-term liabilities and is debt-free. Recent partnerships like the HeartFocus Education app highlight its innovative approach in ultrasound solutions despite shareholder dilution concerns over the past year.
