Ouster: A Speculative Growth Story With Cash To Spare
I see Ouster as a speculative buy, since the company is still early in its growth story and priced at a steep premium of about 170x its 2027 free cash. I take comfort in Ouster's balance sheet, with roughly 13% of its market cap in cash and no debt, which gives it enough runway to potentially reach self-sustainability. I believe Ouster can deliver 30%+ annual revenue growth into 2026, supported by improving gross margins and operating leverage.

Western LiDAR Quarterly Insights - Q2 2025 Summary
Ouster stands out as the only Western LiDAR company, with strong revenue growth, efficient cash management, and a clear path to profitability by 2027. Innoviz is undervalued but faces sustainability concerns, as most revenue comes from non-recurring engineering, not scalable hardware sales. Luminar and Aeva are struggling with negative gross margins, high cash burn, and weak revenue, making them unattractive investments at this stage.
