Nauticus Robotics, Inc. looks fair against its niche peers and is at-risk on financing cadence.

Synthesized from the figures below est. — every claim rests on a number shown on this page. Valuation uses the robotics sector profile.

Analyst read est. — computed against this company's niche peers in the same era. Inputs shown; not a quoted figure.

Fair
  • Modeled value is 1.26× the median modeled value of Series C Robotics companies in 2022–2024 (5 peers) — value vs value, same stage and era.
  • Within the normal band (126% of peer median) for its niche.
At-risk
  • Last raise 2.4 yr ago; this sector typically re-raises about every 14 months.
  • Past due for a raise versus sector cadence — watch for distress or a bridge.

How it compares to the market

Benchmarked against 327 companies in Robotics. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.

Total raised — vs sector median (real $, all stages) 9.9× above median
This company$62.3M
Sector median$6.3M
Latest round — vs other Series C rounds in sector (real $, this stage) 1.2× above median
This company$50.0M
Sector median$43.0M
Modeled value — vs sector median (estimate, all stages) 13× above median
This company$456.2M
Sector median$34.5M

Raised more than 92% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 94% of peers (estimate).

Niche peers — same stage & era

A tighter cohort than the sector chart above — only companies at the same stage (Series C) that last raised in the same ~3-year era, ranked by modeled value est. (not money raised). This is the exact set the analyst read compares against, so a like-for-like cohort is what makes "over/under-valued" meaningful. This company ranks #2 of 5.
