On the stock market since 1999, it operates in the world of money and finance. It has 2 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.
No real growth (2% a year). 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. For now, time is on the company’s side.
The stock trades 27% below its peak. The market has trimmed its expectations for the company.
It pays out $0.31 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $875K against $5.0M in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.
On our five-subject report card, RAFI sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”
The takeaway: RAFI is a small company that closed last year at a loss. The road back to profit runs through spending discipline.
