Daily closes. Earnings/event dots are placed inline.
Industries move in repeating boom-and-bust cycles. This shows where this stock’s industry sits in that cycle, stage by stage (recovery → expansion → supercycle → steady → deceleration → contraction), from its fundamentals (orders, revenue, capital spending), not the stock’s price.
A booming industry is a tailwind for the names in it; a contracting one is a headwind. Companies in the same industry tend to rise and fall together with the cycle, the way a tide lifts and lowers every boat in the harbor at once, so a large part of a stock’s swing can come from where its industry sits rather than from the company itself. It’s context for reading the company’s results, not a buy/sell call. Full explanation →
Industrials is in expansion. Describes the industry's cycle state, not a call on this stock.
The stage band shows the industry’s cycle over the chart’s timeline (each color a stage); a ▼ marks a quarter its growth inflected down — amber is an unconfirmed watch, red is confirmed the next quarter. Use “Overlay cycle on chart” to tint the price chart by stage. The industry’s fundamentals, not a signal on this stock.
The reason to own it still holds.
View ThesisRevenue growth is accelerating — up about 42% over the past year.
View GrowthManagement screens weak on capital allocation, margins, the balance sheet, market reaction to earnings.
View ManagementExpectations look high — the market is pricing in about 223% growth a year, above the roughly 20% analysts expect, leaving little room for error.
View ValuationThis stock is volatile — it swings about 2% on a typical day and fell roughly 44% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskEvolv Technologies must maintain strong revenue growth to justify its price. The company expects revenue growth of about 20% to 23% in 2026. Revenue guidance aligns with this growth objective. It trades at 5.3 times sales, while the peer median is 1.6 times. The market is pricing in more growth than we forecast. If EVLV cuts guidance, it could hurt credibility and stock price. Peer multiples imply a price about 223% below where it trades. This read is provisional.
Trailing returns as of 2026-09-04. EVLV is total return (includes dividends); the S&P 500 benchmark is price return (the index excludes dividends).
