Where BNAI is headed
Eighteen months from now, Brand Engagement Network is almost certainly one of two things: a sub-$20M micro-cap doing yet another reverse split to stay listed, or an acqui-hire absorbed by a mid-tier CX software vendor for the customer contracts and whatever engineering talent stuck around. Neither outcome rewards holders at $7.28. The revenue growth number that jumps off the page (+3,101%) is the mathematical artifact of dividing a real number by almost nothing. Operating margin of negative 2,205% is the real tell. This company spends roughly $22 for every dollar of revenue it produces.
