Ouster: A Speculative Growth Story With Cash To Spare
OUST
Published: September 02, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

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.
