What does Gevo do?
Gevo er et energiselskab, der laver vedvarende brændstoffer for at mindske CO2-udledning. De tjener penge på at udvikle og sælge benzin, jetbrændstof og diesel med nul kulstofemissioner.

Over the last 60 days we have not registered a guidance raise or cut from Gevo. The company can still adjust its guidance at quarterly reports or between reports — see the earnings history and the news overview above.
Is Gevo making money or losing money?
No, Gevo is currently not making money — the company is losing money with a negative profit margin of -19.4%, a noticeable loss. That means the business loses money on every dollar of revenue. For growth stocks investing in expansion this is normal — but it raises the risk if the company does not reach break-even before its capital runs out.
Can Gevo go bankrupt?
The bankruptcy risk of Gevo is rated as elevated. Altman Z2 (a model for assessing financial distress) is -1.14 — that places the company in the weak zone. This is a probability based on the numbers, not a verdict — bankruptcy is not imminent.

The Piotroski score (financial health 0-9, higher is better) is 4 — which is average. Debt relative to equity is 19% (low).

Note: D/E levels are highly sector-specific — a bank at 300% debt is normal, a tech stock at 300% is extremely leveraged. Always compare with similar companies in the same sector. Can Gevo service its debt? Could struggle to service its debt — the interest coverage ratio (how many times earnings can cover interest payments) is -3.1x, and net debt equals 4.9 years of earnings (EBITDA).
