Share count rising — dilution

+12.2% over 4y

Diluted shares outstanding: 235.5M (2021) → 264.3M (2025)

Basanite, Inc. makes construction materials out of basalt rock. The company turns crushed basalt into fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rebar, which is used as a replacement for traditional steel rebar in concrete structures like bridges, roads, and buildings. It sells primarily to construction contractors and engineers looking for a lighter, rust-resistant alternative to steel.

Basanite earns revenue by selling its basalt FRP rebar products directly to construction projects and distributors, mainly in North America. The company is very small, with a market cap near zero and a deeply negative operating margin, meaning it spends far more than it earns right now. Its potential edge is that basalt rebar does not corrode like steel, which could appeal to infrastructure projects in harsh environments — but the main risk is that the company has not yet proven it can scale production and reach profitability before running out of cash.

Cash watch

Basanite has less than a year of cash at its current burn rate. Growth investors should watch for potential share dilution from future fundraising — that directly reduces your ownership.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
