Key Events
Two bits of company news landed this week, both tied to the Nevada refinery. A report on Thursday (22 Oct) confirmed the refinery had resumed production amid strong diesel demand; on Friday, the company flagged plans to raise output, and the stock popped more than 8% intraday. Separately, two proxy filings (DEF 14A and DEFA14A) appeared on Saturday, after the week had ended, so they belong in the forward-looking picture rather than this week’s news flow. The dominant story is the refinery restart and the push to lift capacity.
The Week Ahead
The macro calendar opens with Dallas Fed manufacturing activity on Monday, followed Tuesday by durable goods orders, FHFA and Case Shiller house prices, new home sales, the Richmond Fed index and consumer confidence. For SKYQ itself, the main date is Friday 13 Nov, when Q3 FY2026 results are due. Before that, watch the pace of refinery output following the restart, diesel margins, and any governance read-through from the two proxy documents.
In Short
The weekly sell-off roughly coincided with the refinery-restart headlines, which reads more like digestion of an earlier bounce than a fresh fundamental blow. On valuation, book value per share is $1.33 and the stock trades around 1.61x book, while trailing EPS is negative, so the equity story still hinges on an earnings turn. In the latest session, large-lot flow was marginally net positive, but medium and retail flows were mixed, with no clear incremental trend. The next test is how quickly the refinery restart converts into volume and whether November earnings offer a clearer path to profitability.
