SKYX: National Electrical Code Approval Will Drive Widespread Adoption

Key Takeaways

• Regulatory shifts and infrastructure needs position SKYX to capture recurring, code-driven sales and expand its addressable market through safety-focused, easy-installation platforms.
  
• Strategic partnerships, robust patent portfolio, and improved e-commerce execution strengthen adoption, market share, and potential for stable long-term margins.
  
• Heavy reliance on regulatory adoption, unproven recurring contracts, and sustained operating losses create risks for scaling, innovation investment, and profitable cash flow stability.

Catalysts

Provides a series of safe-smart platform technologies in the United States.

• Accelerating regulatory momentum toward mandatory safety and code standardization of ceiling outlet receptacle technologies could unlock a large recurring revenue opportunity as adoption accelerates in both new builds and renovations, and increases the likelihood of recurring, code-driven sales growth.
  
• Major partnerships and product deployments, such as the Miami $3 billion smart city project and expanded Home Depot assortment, serve as key validation points, potentially driving further adoption by developers and builders, and supporting robust top-line and market share growth.
  
• SKYX's focus on safety and easy-installation plug-and-play platforms is well positioned to benefit from broader market needs, such as the renovation of aging infrastructure and rising labor costs, underpinning continued expansion of the addressable market and sustained revenue growth.
  
• Expansion of the patent portfolio (now over 100 patents and pending applications) and the push for global applications set the stage for future licensing and royalty income, supporting stable long-term margins and higher quality earnings.
  
• Enhanced e-commerce execution, including key hires with proven track records in scaling online sales, and a growing omni-channel presence, is expected to drive faster sales conversion, margin improvement, and a pathway to consistent positive cash flow.

SKYX Platforms Future Earnings and Revenue Growth

Assumptions

• Analysts are assuming SKYX Platforms's revenue will grow by 16.3% annually over the next 3 years.
• Analysts are not forecasting that SKYX Platforms will become profitable in next 3 years. To represent the Analyst Price Target as a Future PE Valuation we will estimate SKYX Platforms's profit margin will increase from -41.8% to the average US Electrical industry of 10.2% in 3 years.
• If SKYX Platforms's profit margin were to converge on the industry average, you could expect earnings to reach $14.2 million (and earnings per share of $0.1) by about September 2028, up from $-37.2 million today. The analysts are largely in agreement about this estimate.
• In order for the above numbers to justify the analysts price target, the company would need to trade at a PE ratio of 39.2x on those 2028 earnings, up from -3.5x today. This future PE is greater than the current PE for the US Electrical industry at 29.6x.
• Analysts expect the number of shares outstanding to grow by 7.0% per year for the next 3 years.
• To value all of this in today's terms, we will use a discount rate of 9.5%, as per the Simply Wall St company report.

SKYX Platforms Future Earnings Per Share Growth

Risks

• The company continues to report operating losses and negative adjusted EBITDA, reflecting a reliance on sequential quarterly improvements without demonstrating consistent profitability; this sustained lack of net earnings may hinder ability to invest in product innovation or expand operations, directly impacting future earnings.
  
• There is significant dependence on government-mandated code standardization to unlock large-scale adoption, which remains uncertain in both timing and outcome; any regulatory delays, changes in political/regulatory priorities, or failure to secure mandatory adoption could result in volatile or slower-than-expected revenue growth.
  
• Although the company touts recent partnerships and large projects like the Miami smart city, the text reveals a lack of confirmed, recurring developer or builder agreements beyond pilot or single large deployments; this concentration risk could lead to substantial revenue fluctuations and challenges in scaling consistent top-line growth.
  
• The business model heavily leverages trade payables and rapid sales-to-cash conversion (the "Dell Working Capital Model") to support operations and maintain liquidity; any disruption to supply chain financing, adverse shifts in vendor terms, or a slowdown in receivables conversion could negatively affect cash flow and threaten net margins.
  
• The emphasis on product launches, particularly the all-in-one smart heater, suggests an ongoing reliance on innovation and successful retail rollouts; increased competition from larger smart home or IoT players, as well as potential commoditization of plug-and-play electrical platforms, could compress prices and reduce gross margins.

Valuation

• The analysts have a consensus price target of $3.125 for SKYX Platforms based on their expectations of its future earnings growth, profit margins and other risk factors. However, there is a degree of disagreement amongst analysts, with the most bullish reporting a price target of $5.0, and the most bearish reporting a price target of just $2.0.
• In order for you to agree with the analyst's consensus, you'd need to believe that by 2028, revenues will be $140.1 million, earnings will come to $14.2 million, and it would be trading on a PE ratio of 39.2x, assuming you use a discount rate of 9.5%.
• Given the current share price of $1.18, the analyst price target of $3.12 is 62.2% higher.
• We always encourage you to reach your own conclusions though. So sense check these analyst numbers against your own assumptions and expectations based on your understanding of the business and what you believe is probable.
