AI Analysis
AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.
In the latest filed quarter, fiscal Q1 2027 ended 2026-06-30, Orion earned $2.0M on $25.7M of revenue, or $0.47 diluted EPS. That is a real improvement over fiscal Q1 2026 ended 2025-06-30, when it lost $1.2M, and fiscal Q2 2026 ended 2025-09-30, when it lost $581,000. But the annual record is poor: FY2026 ended 2026-03-31 lost $3.2M on $85.5M revenue; FY2025 ended 2025-03-31 lost $11.8M on $78.9M; FY2024 ended 2024-03-31 lost $11.7M on $90.5M. Revenue is not compounding, and profitability is unproven. Financial health is not compelling: FairStock calculates debt-to-equity of 0.51, an Altman Z-Score of -0.37, a Piotroski F-Score of 4/9, trailing free cash flow of $751,000, and a 0.7% FCF yield. Returns are weak, with ROE of 0.27% and ROCE of 1.81%. The business sells electrical equipment and lighting, and at 174 employees it has no obvious durable moat. At the 2026-10-13 close of $24.80, market cap is $101.4M. FairStock shows P/B of 5.39, EV/EBITDA of 44.17, and negative P/E. I see no margin of safety. The Lynch category is none because of losses in each of the last four years. The latest quarter hints at a possible inflection, but one quarter does not make a trend. I would want several quarters of positive net income and free cash flow before paying such multiples.
In plain English: Orion Energy Systems sells and installs energy-efficient lighting and electrical systems for commercial, industrial, and government buildings. The business has grown revenue recently and had a small quarterly profit, but it has lost money in each of the last four fiscal years and generates very little spare cash. At $24.80, the shares look expensive compared with those weak profits and net assets.
