On the stock market since 1986, it operates in the world of money and finance. It has 17 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.
An average decline of 4% a year over the last 4 years — the most striking risk in this picture. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.
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.
For a bank, strength is measured by capital buffers and reserves — not cash minus debt.
The price looks reasonable next to what the company earns.
Clearly below the class average.
Clearly below the class average.
Growth: Sales growth trails the sector average.
Financial Strength: The capital buffer looks thin next to its class; less room to absorb a rough stretch.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 69% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
Over the last 12 months, company executives reported 20 buys and 2 sells. Management buying with its own money is usually read as a good sign.
The average analyst price target is $18.00 — 178% above today’s price.
It pays out $0.83 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $7.6M against $72.4M in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.
At the current pace of spending, the cash lasts less than a year. After that, the company needs to find new money.
On our five-subject report card, GHI sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”
The takeaway: GHI is a small company that 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.
