On the stock market since 1983, it operates in the world of technology. It has 418 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.
No real growth (4% 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.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Clearly below the class average.
Debt is low and cash is strong; the finances stand solid.
Clearly above the class average — a step short of the very top.
This grade is a blend: the profit side is strong, the sales tempo slow.
The stock has been running stronger than the market lately.
Business Quality: Profit power and business quality trail similar companies in the sector.
The stock trades 38% below its peak. The market has trimmed its expectations for the company.
The company sells $208.9M a year; the problem isn’t sales — it’s costs running above that number.
There is $35.9M in the vault; even if every debt were paid off, $33.6M would remain.
It met or beat analyst expectations in 7 of the last 8 quarters — consistency is a promise kept.
A loss of $1.1M against $208.9M in annual sales.
The stock trades 15% above the average analyst price target.
On our five-subject report card, RELL sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”
The takeaway: RELL 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.
