Share count rising — dilution

+54.1% over 4y

The company has issued more shares over this period, which dilutes each existing shareholder’s stake.

Diluted shares outstanding: 112.7M (2021) → 173.6M (2025)

T1 Energy Inc. is a solar energy company that builds and installs solar power systems, primarily for commercial and industrial customers in the United States. The company focuses on helping businesses reduce their electricity costs by generating their own power from the sun. It operates in the fast-growing clean energy sector, where demand is being pushed by both rising utility prices and government incentives for renewable energy.

T1 Energy makes money by selling and installing solar equipment, earning revenue on each project it completes rather than through recurring subscriptions. The company is still relatively early in its growth phase, which explains why it is currently losing money — its operating costs exceed what it brings in from sales. With a gross margin of just 7.6%, there is little room for error, and the main risk is that project costs, supply chain pressures, or slower-than-expected customer demand could make it difficult to reach profitability before the company needs to raise additional capital.

Strong grower

T1 Energy is growing revenue at 232% year-over-year. The Winston Score penalises unprofitable companies, but revenue at this pace tells a different story — this is a company still in "build mode."

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.
