Looking at Blend Labs, I see a small software vendor to financial institutions. Revenue grew from $109.5M in FY2023 to $115.8M in FY2024 and $123.6M in FY2025, roughly 6-7% annually, not the rapid compounding I want in technology. The important improvement is the bottom line: net loss narrowed from $178.7M in FY2023 to $43.3M in FY2024, then $6.8M in FY2025. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $33.8M and net loss was only $1.5M, with diluted EPS of -$0.03. That suggests management has cut costs and may be nearing break-even. Free cash flow is positive at $7.6M TTM, a 3.3% FCF yield per FairStock as of the 2026-10-13 close. The balance sheet shows a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.02, but FairStock's Altman Z-score of -12.59 signals deep financial risk, and the Piotroski F-score is a mediocre 5/9. I cannot identify a durable moat from the data. Customers are banks and lenders, and the company has no profits over the last four years per the Lynch classification. At $0.95, market cap is $229.1M. FairStock's negative P/E of -13.64 and EV/EBITDA of 23.17 do not offer a margin of safety on trailing numbers. The recent trend is encouraging, but a Graham-style investor demands proven earning power and a discount to intrinsic value. Here, that proof is still missing.

In plain English: Blend Labs sells cloud software that helps banks and lenders handle digital loan and deposit applications. The business has lost money for years, but the losses have gotten much smaller and it recently generated positive cash flow. At $0.95 a share, the price looks speculative against today’s still-unproven profits, so it is not obviously cheap or fairly valued on the numbers.
