Horizon

Key catalyst

Expected move: -23%

Biggest risk

Missed deliveries, covenant pressure, or insufficient financing force dilution or impairments, compressing multiples toward published lows.

Invalidation

What would change my mind?

SolarFlex deliveries and a clear production ramp drive revenue and margin expansion; with limited coverage, positive execution can rapidly re-rate the stock toward published highs.
