Sales and earnings estimates are projected to be strong for the next few years, and it is anticipated to become profitable this year.
Its forward sales multiple of 1.7X is reasonable, although its forward P/E of 38.3X is fairly high.
Although, we expect its P/E to contract over time as earnings grow at a faster rate than shares.
It has turned cash flow positive in 2022, is working on paying down its debt.
It has a strong cash balance of $4.3B, and overall, we like the direction that the operational metrics are heading in.
We would like to see it continue its recent momentum in profitability and free cash flow, but overall things are moving in the right direction.
