Black Sesame International: Credible Challenger, Unproven Cash Conversion

Black Sesame is a fabless designer of automotive compute SoCs, selling ADAS chips and bundled solutions; 2025 revenue rose 73% to RMB822 million, yet it stays deeply loss-making with R&D near 1.7x sales. It has crossed the technical-credibility threshold (A1000 shipping in Geely, BYD and FAW models) but not the cash-conversion one, leaning on repeated 2025-2026 equity raises. Rating Hold: real commercialization exists, but recurring dilution and negative owner earnings cap valuation support, with a true margin of safety only below about HK$6.
