T3 Defense shares jump more than 70% on Monday after short seller report flags losses and liquidity risk
T3 Defense shares surged despite a short-seller report highlighting weak fundamentals: $3.6M quarterly revenue versus a $26.3M net loss, thin gross profit, heavy operating costs, and a cash runway of roughly 4.7 months. Allegations of dilution risk, reverse-split dynamics, and acquisition-driven goodwill raise sustainability concerns. While subsidiaries reported record monthly revenue and growing backlog, credibility and financing risk dominate near-term sentiment.
