On the stock market since 2010, it operates in the world of technology. It has 2,332 employees. Now — the numbers.
The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.
That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.
Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. This is the most critical line in the whole picture.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Clearly below the class average.
The cash pile is strong; debt and other items pull the grade toward the middle.
The price isn’t cheap next to earnings — that’s why this grade sits in the middle.
Clearly below the class average.
The price is looking for direction — no strong breakout, no collapse.
Growth: Sales growth trails the sector average.
Business Quality: Profit power and business quality trail similar companies in the sector.
angles, checked one by one.
The 2 that stand out are on screen; the rest came back neutral.
The council scores out of 10; report-card grades are out of 100.
Executive Buying: The trades send no strong signal of confidence.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 67% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
The company sells $696.2M a year; the problem isn’t sales — it’s costs running above that number.
There is $153.1M in the vault; even if every debt were paid off, $102.2M would remain.
The average analyst price target is $50.00 — 132% above today’s price.
A loss of $97.0M against $696.2M in annual sales.
This stock swings about 2 times as much as the market average. Big rallies — and big drops — can both happen fast.
At the current pace of spending, the cash lasts about 1.6 years. After that, the company needs to find new money.
On our five-subject report card, AOSL sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”
The takeaway: AOSL has solid sales but closed last year at a loss. The road back to profit runs through spending discipline.
The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
Analysts’ average target sits above today’s price, yet the valuation grade (51/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
