Forum Markets Eyes AI Compute Growth as Aircraft Engines Drive Cash Flow
Forum Markets (NASDAQ:FRMM) expects mid-teens net returns from tokenized engine investments, with AI compute as a potential growth driver. The company plans a compute partnership and sees power shortages as a key bottleneck. Forum reported $1.4M in recent revenue, targeting $18M-$22M for 2026. It aims for cash-flow positivity in early 2027 and has repurchased 35% of its shares.
