Taoping Inc. in 30 seconds · fiscal 2025
Are shareholders being diluted?
+433.8%
A lot. The share count rose 433.8% last year, so each share owns noticeably less.
Does it make a profit?
$1.7M R&D
Not yet: it has no meaningful sales. It spent $1.7M on research and development, 15% of its operating costs.
How long would its cash last?
0.5 yrs
Not long. It burns $3.9M a year and holds $2.1M, under a year at that pace, so it may need new money soon.
Is debt under control?
$7.6M
Risky. It owes more than it holds in cash and has no operating profit to repay it.
How healthy are the accounts?
2 / 9
It passes 2 of 9 health tests, but most of them need sales, so the score says little before revenue starts.
How is the share priced?
—
No P/E: it made no profit over the last four quarters.
