CBAK Energy Technology, Inc. represents a hold based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our model assigns CBAK Energy Technology, Inc. a Hold rating, with a composite score of 52.0/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #1691 of 7,333 stocks, CBAT presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.
CBAT's quality score of 40/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of -3.4% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 12.1% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of -3.1% (sector avg: 1.0%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
CBAT's value score of 51/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 34.00x, an EV/EBITDA of 5.84x, a P/B ratio of 0.78x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
CBAK Energy Technology, Inc.'s investment score of 32/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 27.5% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of -1.1% (sector: 0.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
CBAT is currently showing below-average momentum at 47/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at 27.5% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.36 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.
With a stability score of 64/100, CBAT exhibits average financial resilience. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.36 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 4.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). While the balance sheet is not a major concern, the stock is subject to typical market volatility and may experience sharper drawdowns during risk-off episodes.
CBAT carries a short interest score of 78/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 4.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. At $80M market cap (micro-cap), CBAK Energy Technology, Inc. offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
CBAK Energy Technology, Inc. is a micro-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #1691 of 7,333 overall (77th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -3.4% trailing the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of -6.3% below the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While CBAT currently exhibits a HOLD profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
