Stocks of Braille Energy Systems Inc. (TSXV:BES) stock zoomed over 41 per cent on Friday, March 26, as investors heavily bought shares of the EV battery maker. Over four million shares of the company were traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange Venture (TSXV).

The industrial products firm announced a supply arrangement for 12 Volt lithium-ion-batteries with Tesla’s (TSLA:US or NASDAQ: TSLA) subsidiary Unplugged Performance Inc. in early March. Its stock rocketed by 131.50 per cent on the back of this deal. 

On March 23, the Ottawa-based company released its first fiscal quarter of 2021 results with a double-digit top line surge. Its net loss also dropped to C$ 67,544 in Q1 FY21 from C$ 199,581 in Q1 FY20.

Braille is getting rid of its lead-acid batteries and focusing on more advanced Lithium batteries. The stock could offer attractive returns as the market for EV heats up.

Let us delve into the electric vehicle battery manufacturer’s stock performance: 

Braille Energy Systems Inc. (TSXV:BES)

The ultralight battery system developer’s current share price is C$ 0.72. It is up 4,700 per cent in one year, outperforming the TSX 300 Composite index that has returned 604 per cent relatively.

The green stock has soared 14,300 per cent compared with its 52-week low of C$ 0.0050 per share recorded on March 30, 2020.

For the first fiscal quarter of 2021, the firm posted revenue of C$ 755,270, a rise of 12.8 per cent against the first quarter of the fiscal year 2020.

Braille Energy’s Outlook

The company expects to have good demand for its newly built F31 Fleet-Lite Lithium battery for commercial trucks. The company also said that it has enough working capital to invest in its plant expansion for the current calendar year. 

The above constitutes a preliminary view and any interest in stocks should be evaluated further from an investment point of view.
