The score is primarily held down by deteriorating financial performance (sharp revenue decline, widening losses, and significant ongoing cash burn with a limited equity cushion). Technicals are supportive in the near term (price above major moving averages, positive MACD) but appear overextended (RSI/Stoch elevated). Earnings call progress on operations and scaling is constructive, yet guidance still points to substantial negative free cash flow and continuing losses.

Positive Factors

Strategic Partnerships

The partnership with Verizon enhances Kodiak's driverless trucking solutions with advanced connectivity and IoT capabilities, strengthening its competitive position and technological edge in the autonomous vehicle sector.

Revenue Growth

Substantial revenue growth indicates successful market penetration and increased adoption of Kodiak's AI solutions, supporting long-term business expansion and financial stability.

Driverless Operations Expansion

The expansion in driverless operations demonstrates Kodiak's operational capabilities and leadership in autonomous technology, positioning it well for future growth in the logistics and transportation sectors.

Negative Factors

High Leverage

High leverage and negative equity pose significant risks to Kodiak's financial health, limiting its ability to invest in growth and weather economic downturns, potentially impacting long-term sustainability.

Negative Cash Flow

Persistent negative cash flow highlights operational inefficiencies and cash management challenges, which could hinder Kodiak's ability to fund future growth and innovation initiatives.

Operating Losses

Continued operating losses reflect ongoing challenges in achieving profitability, which may affect Kodiak's ability to sustain operations and invest in strategic initiatives over the long term.

Kodiak AI Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Kodiak AI is facing significant financial difficulties across all verticals. The company is struggling with profitability, high leverage, and negative cash flows. These factors collectively indicate a precarious financial position, requiring strategic interventions to improve financial health and operational efficiency.

Income Statement

Kodiak AI's income statement reveals significant challenges. The company has experienced a negative net profit margin of -4.65% and a negative EBIT margin of -4.32% in the latest year, indicating substantial losses relative to revenue. The revenue growth rate is marked as 'Infinity' due to the absence of revenue in earlier years, which complicates trend analysis. Overall, the company is struggling with profitability and growth.

Balance Sheet

The balance sheet shows a concerning financial position with a negative stockholders' equity of -$250.8 million, leading to a negative debt-to-equity ratio. This indicates that liabilities exceed assets, posing a risk to financial stability. The return on equity is positive but misleading due to negative equity, and the equity ratio is not meaningful. The company is highly leveraged and financially unstable.

Cash Flow

Kodiak AI's cash flow statement highlights severe cash flow issues. The operating cash flow and free cash flow are both negative, with a free cash flow to net income ratio of 1.06, indicating that cash outflows exceed inflows. Despite a high free cash flow growth rate, the overall cash flow position is weak, reflecting operational inefficiencies and cash management challenges.

On December 31, 2025, Kodiak AI, Inc. and its subsidiary Kodiak Robotics, Inc. entered into a new senior secured venture loan and security agreement with Horizon Technology Finance Corporation for a $30 million term loan facility, using part of the proceeds to repay existing indebtedness to the same lender and allocating the remainder to working capital and general corporate needs. The facility, which carries interest at the prime rate plus 3.50% (with a 6.50% prime floor) and matures on January 1, 2030, provides an interest-only period from February 1, 2026 through July 1, 2028, after which the loan amortizes over 18 months, and is secured by substantially all of the borrowers’ assets, including intellectual property; it also includes customary covenants, prepayment penalties, fees totaling at least $1.5 million, and standard default provisions that could accelerate repayment and increase the interest rate, underscoring the company’s reliance on structured venture debt while terminating its prior loan agreement from September 28, 2022 with the same lender.
