AI Analysis
AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.
I look for a durable business bought at a sensible price. Intelligent Protection Management sells managed IT security, cloud hosting, and backup services, but the filed record shows it has not earned a profit in each of the last four years, and FairStock assigns no Peter Lynch category for that reason. In the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $6.5M and net income was $-1.4M, a -20.91% net margin. In the quarter ended 2026-03-31, revenue was $2.0M and net income was $-660,214. Those figures are far above fiscal year ended 2025-12-31 revenue of $344,365 and net loss of $2.0M, but losses persist. Fiscal year ended 2024-12-31 had revenue of $1.1M and net loss of $8.4M; fiscal year ended 2023-12-31 had revenue of $962,032 and net loss of $1.1M. The competitive moat is not visible: a 41-employee IT services firm in a crowded field with no profit history to demonstrate pricing power. FairStock calculations at the 2026-10-13 close of $1.73 show P/E -6.18, P/B 1.40, ROE -20.68%, ROCE -5.80%, and FCF yield -4.1%. Debt/equity is modest at 0.26, but trailing free cash flow is -$644,800, Piotroski is 3/9, and Altman Z-Score is -0.34. Revenue growth of 12.93% is offset by profit growth of -28.71%. Without earnings or positive cash flow, there is no Graham margin of safety in the accounts, only the hope of a turnaround. The market cap of $15.6M is small, and the beta of 0.46 is low, but I would want clear evidence that growth can become profitable before calling this a sound value.
In plain English: Intelligent Protection Management sells managed IT security, cloud hosting, and backup services. The company is still losing money and has not earned a profit in the last four years, so the business looks weak on profits even though revenue has grown. At $1.73 per share, the price is hard to call cheap or expensive because there are no profits to compare against; it is a small, unprofitable company.
