This is an established company with proven profits.
Average growth of 27% a year over the last 4 years. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.
The gap is $282.0M. In times of high interest rates, a gap like that can squeeze a company.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Clearly above the class average — a step short of the very top.
A solid grade overall — yet the debt outweighs the cash. The strength here comes from earnings power.
The price isn’t cheap next to earnings — that’s why this grade sits in the middle.
Sales are growing strongly for its sector.
Clearly below the class average.
Price Momentum: The stock has lagged the market in recent months; investor interest is weak right now.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 65% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
Over the last 3 years, sales grew about 23% a year on average.
The average analyst price target is $77.33 — 36% above today’s price.
Buyers haven’t stepped back in yet; the price hasn’t found its footing. Report-card grade: 35/100. For a turnaround signal, the stock first needs to close the gap with the market.
On our five-subject report card, FRPT 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: FRPT is an established business that has proven its profits for years. The real debate isn’t the quality of the business — it’s what that quality should cost.
The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
