CA$85.55M

Base Carbon Inc., with a market cap of CA$85.55 million, remains pre-revenue and currently unprofitable, facing challenges such as a negative return on equity of -8.27%. Despite this, the company is debt-free and its short-term assets significantly exceed liabilities, providing a stable financial footing. Recent developments include the initiation of a share repurchase program to buy back up to 6.38% of its issued shares by June 2026, which could potentially enhance shareholder value but also highlights ongoing concerns about future profitability given past losses and an auditor's going concern doubts for 2024.
