Examining the Future: Comstock's Earnings Outlook

Micro-cap stocks can come in many shapes and sizes. Some might be once successful firms that lost their way and are looking to recover their prior glory. Others are companies that may have yet to generate any substantial revenues but could growth strongly if their offerings start to catch on.
Investing successfully in micro-cap stocks is difficult. Selecting the wrong company can lead to a loss of all or a substantial part of an investment. However, picking the right one could result in a big payday. The iShares Micro-Cap ETF (ARCA: IWC) has provided a total return of just over 100% over the past 10 years. That severely lags the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (ARCA: SPY), which has returned 266% over the same period.
Below, I&#39;ll dive into three micro-cap companies that show large potential upside but also carry significant risk.
<h2>Amprius: Advanced Battery Technology, But Significant Scale Is Needed</h2>
First up is Amprius (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ampx#NYSE">AMPX</a>) Technologies. The industrial company makes high-density lithium-ion batteries that use silicon nanowire anodes. Compared to the traditional graphite anodes that lithium-ion batteries use, these anodes take up less space, allowing them to package more lithium into a battery. This technology can substantially extend battery life in a variety of applications.
The company shows the range of a Tesla Model 3, and the flight time for a drone can be increased by around 75%. It also shows that its batteries can charge up to 80%, around five times faster than graphite anode batteries. The company&#39;s products are primarily used in drones and high-altitude pseudo-satellites (&quot;HAPS&quot;).
However, this company is extremely unprofitable. The cost directly associated with producing its batteries was around three times higher than the revenue it made from them. This gave the firm a gross profit margin of -195% last quarter. With over $12 million in revenue over the last twelve months, it is reasonable to think the company could be profitable if it scaled up massively.
Price targets are wide-ranging for this firm, but a target released by Oppenheimer implies 1,117% upside. Shares have been on the rise as of late after the company disclosed $20 million in new orders. Still, the company will need to achieve much higher sales than that to be profitable. It is designing a new manufacturing facility in Colorado to increase its production capacity.
<h2>Comstock: Expanding Capacity to Capitalize Off Solar Panel Recycling</h2>
Comstock Inc. (AMEX:LODE) is a decarbonization and recycling company. One of its biggest focuses right now is building up capacity to recycle solar panel metal and then resell it.
The company currently has no substantial revenues and frequently issues more equity to fund its operations. However, it does have substantial cash on its balance sheet that it can use for funding currently. Shares have been on the rise since the company recorded its first shipments and sales of renewable metal extracted from old solar panels.
The company recently secured its first lease for a large-scale facility to expand its recycling capacity. It believes that this part of the business could be profitable by 2026 and plans to have three facilities opened by then.
Right now, the stock is trading at just $5 million higher than its assets minus its liabilities, or its book value.
Getting traction in the solar panel recycling business could mean big things for the stock, as according to MIT, &quot;8 million tons of decommissioned solar panels could accumulate by 2030.&quot; Noble Capital Markets sees a 468% upside in this stock based on their $2.60 price target released on Aug. 13.
<h2>Marinus Hopes to Expand the Market for Its Key Drug</h2>
Last is Marinus Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mrns#NASDAQ">MRNS</a>).&nbsp;The company is currently waiting to release Phase 3 Food and Drug Administration (FDA) results for its drug ganaxalone.
The drug aims to treat Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). If approved, the company could use its drug to treat around 12,700 people.
The FDA has already approved the drug for a condition with similar symptoms. However, a TSC approval could generate much more revenue as it affects many more patients.
The average price target for the firm sits at $8.50. From the current $1.65 price, this represents an over 400% potential upside for the stock.
The company plans to release the results of this Phase 3 trial in less than a month.
If the results are strong, they could have a massive positive effect on the stock price. However, if they disappoint, they could also greatly hurt the stock price, leading to a big downgrade.

3 Micro-Caps Set for Major Moves: Balancing Risk and Opportunity

The deal includes GenMat&#39;s artificial intelligence materials discovery platform, materials synthesis, and related assets, business, and most of the related technical team.
Concurrently, as part of the acquisition of GenMat, Deep Prasad&#39;s holding company will be receiving GenMat&#39;s consolidated satellite, mission control software, other related low earth orbit assets, and space team.
Comstock&#39;s original 2021 investment agreement with GenMat called for a milestone-based investment of&nbsp;$50 million for&nbsp;50%&nbsp;of GenMat&#39;s fully diluted equity, including about&nbsp;$15 million previously paid by Comstock.
Comstock and GenMat agreed to terminate each of their prior agreements as part of the new acquisition agreement. Comstock expects to efficiently operate, integrate, and commercialize GenMat.

Comstock's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LODE#NYSE">LODE</a>) short percent of float has fallen 9.25% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 3.40 million shares sold short, which is 2.06% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.0 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Comstock has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Comstock's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Comstock's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.22%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
