Karbon-X Corp (OTCQB:KARX) reported record fiscal 2026 revenue of $55.9 million, up from $3.16 million the prior year, a 1,670% jump. The company says the growth came from scaling global carbon credit trading and expanding project development operations across Europe, Latin America and North America. Gross profit was $0.86 million, nearly flat from $0.80 million, because the revenue mix shifted toward high-volume, lower-margin trading. The company converted $7 million in convertible notes and interest into 10.6 million shares, including a note tied to Hedera Foundation, and ended the year with 94.9 million shares outstanding. Management expects fiscal 2027 to focus on advancing projects through measurement, reporting and verification, which could lead to future credit issuances and better margins. The company also runs a consumer subscription app that allocates 200 to 400 kg of CO2 per month per user. Full details are in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Revenue grew 17x but gross profit barely moved. That tells you the margin story is still all trading volume, not project economics. Worth reading to see if the project pipeline actually converts.

Nice headline number, but the gross profit line is the reality check. They made $0.86M gross on $55.9M revenue. Carbon credit trading can scale fast without scaling profit.

The debt conversion into equity is the part I want to dig into. $7M of notes gone, shares up to 94.9M. Dilution is real. Revenue growth means less if shareholders keep eating the cost.

Karbon-X's fiscal 2026 numbers show what happens when a carbon credit trader scales. Revenue exploded but margins are thin. They say higher margin credit issuance comes later. We'll see.

A 1,670% revenue jump with basically flat gross profit means they are buying and selling credits in bulk. That's not project development yet. The Allcot acquisition might change that, but no details on credit issuance timelines here.

Consumer app allocating 200-400 kg CO2 per month is tiny. The business is trading, not the app. I'd want to know subscription numbers before calling that a growth driver.
