This summary was created by AI, based on 1 opinions in the last 12 months.

Backblaze (BLZE-Q) has shown promising growth in its cloud storage division, which constitutes 57% of total revenues, achieving a notable 25% growth in the last quarter. However, the computer backup sector remains stagnant. Despite facing significant competition from industry giants like Microsoft and Google, the company is winning new business and reported a slightly lower-than-expected net loss in Q1. While the free cash flow is still negative, management is optimistic about positive cash flow for the year. AI-related earnings saw a remarkable year-over-year growth of 76%, indicating potential for future development. Nevertheless, rising costs, especially for hard drives, pose challenges, and the current market focus on high-growth AI stocks presents additional pressure.

DON'T BUY

Last quarter: 12% revenue growth, 25% cloud storage division, but flat was the computer backup division. Cloud storage is now 57% of all revenues and growing. It's still losing money, but the net loss in Q1 was slightly less than expected and free cash flow was negative, but management expects it to be positive for the year. They're winning lots of new business. Their full-year forecast is strong, because they can raise prices. In Q1, earnings in AI saw 76% growth year over year. Fantastic. Caveats: They face serious competition from Microsoft, Google and others in cloud. Also, their costs are going up by 30%, like hard drives. Also, the market is selling anything AI to buy SpaceX and AI IPOs to come. Their valuation is neither cheap or expensive. Bottom line: it lacks the explosive growth of the AI names, though it's a solid company.
