Share count rising — dilution

+12.4% over 5y

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

Diluted shares outstanding: 47.8M (2020) → 53.7M (2025)

Telescope Innovations Corp. is a small Canadian biotechnology company focused on using automation and artificial intelligence to speed up chemistry research. It builds robotic systems and software tools that help scientists run chemical experiments faster and more efficiently. Its main customers are pharmaceutical and chemical companies looking to discover new drugs or materials more quickly.

The company earns revenue by selling its automated chemistry platforms and related services, though it is still in an early stage and generates very little profit — its gross margin is just over 2% and it is spending far more than it earns. Telescope operates primarily in Canada with a focus on North American markets. Its competitive edge lies in combining robotics with chemistry expertise, a niche area with few direct competitors. The key risk is that the company burns through cash quickly, and it will likely need to raise more money to fund operations until it can scale its technology into a sustainable business.

Cash watch

Telescope Innovations 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.
