The five investor questions

2024–2025 (latest 2 aligned FYs; v3 window cap 5): revenue $343500 to $4.3M, increasing; diluted EPS -1.02 to -0.58, increasing. Two-year history is scoreable but carries less confidence than a full-cycle record.

This zero-growth estimate assumes trailing owner earnings persist — unreliable for declining businesses. Flag status unavailable — four adjacent recent FY revenue observations are required.

Among the current top-score group, the median current price is 239% above the zero-growth estimate across 48 of the current top 50 companies by Moat Score with both values.

14 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

AMERICAN BATTERY TECHNOLOGY COMPANY booked $4.3M of revenue in FY2025 in the Materials sector and kept −246.5% of it as gross profit — a thin-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, −1090.0% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

It earned −46.9% on invested capital in the latest filed year, FY2025. Across the full 6-year measurable filed record, median ROIC was −56.8%. Over the v3 recent window (5 measurable filed years), median ROIC was −66.7%. The Returns on Capital filter above scores it 0/100.

The balance sheet carried $7.7M of total debt in FY2025. Balance-Sheet Safety scores it 28/100.

Put together: Business Trend is the strongest of the five filters (70/100) and Pricing Power the weakest (0/100), which is how ABAT lands at 28/100 — a None moat.

This breakdown is generated from the filed numbers and sub-scores above — no outside narrative, no estimates. Where a filing doesn’t disclose an input, the sentence that would need it is omitted instead of guessed.

Breaks in the line mark methodology or normalizer upgrades — readings across versions aren’t compared, so a level shift there isn’t a change in the business.

Scores are logged append-only and never overwritten — this record cannot be reconstructed retroactively, which is exactly why it’s worth keeping.

Insider activity

Form 4 reports mix P/S market or private transactions with compensation-plan mechanics. Activity casually described as “insider selling” can include compensation mechanics; awards, tax withholding, and option exercises are shown by their exact filed class here, never collapsed into “Bought” or “Sold.”

These are disclosed filing facts and arithmetic aggregates, not a signal or verdict.

The insider-filing service is temporarily unavailable, so no partial or guessed answer is shown for ABAT.

Track record

How AMERICAN BATTERY TECHNOLOGY COMPANY’s moat rated in each of the years we can reconstruct from its filings — scored only on what was knowable at the time — and what its price and returns did afterward. The score never saw a price; the two are joined only in hindsight, for education, not as a signal.

Point-in-time scores 2013–2025, one methodology version · reconstructed from filings on file each Dec 31 — never with hindsight

Point-in-time Moat Score (dot colored by tier)Indexed price (total-return (dividends reinvested))Rated Wide-moat that year

How to read this: each dot is what the engine would have scored ABAT on that December 31; the line below is its total-return price path (dividends reinvested) in the years since.

0406080100WideNarrowShallowNo moatPoint-in-time Moat Score2050100200500Indexed price · log scale (2017 = 100)201320162019202220252026

Two tracks, one timeline: the score has its own 0–100 scale (top), the price its own 100-based scale (bottom) — never a shared axis. The price path is a total-return (dividends reinvested) index built from the same data the forward returns use; gaps in the score line are years with no reconstructed rating (see the table for why). The Table view carries every value.

What followed, in the years it rated Wide

In the reconstructed history shown, ABAT did not rate Wide-moat in any year, so there is no wide-moat track record to report. That absence is itself the honest answer — we don’t manufacture a comparison where the rating never earned one.
