On the stock market since 1982, it operates in the world of technology. It has 1,809 employees. Now — the numbers.
The company is still in the product-building phase: its spending runs above its sales. That only changes once the product starts selling at scale.
That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.
Average growth of 13% a year over the last 4 years. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.

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 77% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
Sales run at $455.5M a year. A small number, but proof the product has real buyers.
Over the last 12 months, company executives reported 75 buys and 14 sells. Management buying with its own money is usually read as a good sign.
It pays out $0.03 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $84.5M against $455.5M in annual sales.
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, PAR sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”
The takeaway: PAR is a high-risk stock — not yet profitable, and its future rides on its product catching on.
