Polestar's Financial Struggles: Polestar's shares fell over 9% after reporting a widened net loss of $365 million for Q3 2025, despite a 36% revenue increase to $748 million, which was below Wall Street's expectations.
Reverse Stock Split Plan: To avoid delisting from Nasdaq due to its share price falling below $1, Polestar plans to implement a reverse stock split, which will consolidate shares but not change their overall value.
Market Challenges: The company faces significant challenges, including U.S. tariffs, delays in model releases, and competition from Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers, alongside ongoing debt issues.
Analyst Ratings and Future Potential: Polestar currently holds a Moderate Sell consensus rating from analysts, but the average price target of $1 indicates a potential growth of over 25% from its current trading level.
