Operates an online marketplace connecting buyers and sellers globally. Focuses on unique and creative goods, including handmade and vintage items. Now — the numbers.
That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.
This is an established company with proven profits.
Average growth of 5% a year over the last 4 years. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.
Executive selling isn’t always bad news; people sell for personal reasons too. Still, the thin buying side is worth noting.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Profit power and business quality lead the class.
A solid grade overall — yet the debt outweighs the cash. The strength here comes from earnings power.
Clearly below the class average.
This grade is a blend: the profit side is strong, the sales tempo slow.
The stock has been running stronger than the market lately.
Valuation: The stock trades at a price that looks expensive next to its earnings; that can cap future returns.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 75% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
Our checks did not surface a specific strength to highlight here.
The company’s market value is 42 times its annual profit. Even a small disappointment could hit the price hard.
Today’s price already includes part of tomorrow’s optimism. Report-card grade: 48/100.
No clear buy-side message is coming from the executive floor.
On our five-subject report card, ETSY sits near the top of the class. A high grade doesn’t mean “guaranteed win” — it means “the evidence looks strong for now.”
The takeaway: ETSY is an established business that has proven its profits for years. The real debate isn’t the quality of the business — it’s whether the price paid for the stock is too high.
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 (48/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
