AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

Virco designs, makes, and distributes furniture, mostly seating and tables, with 731 employees. This is a competitive, cyclical business, and I see no durable moat. The filed results are uneven. In FY2026, the year ended 2026-01-31, revenue was $199.7M and net income was $2.6M, down sharply from FY2025, the year ended 2025-01-31, when revenue was $266.2M and net income was $21.6M. The latest filed quarter, fiscal Q2 2027 ended 2026-07-31, showed revenue of $87.5M, net income of $8.6M, and diluted EPS of $0.55, but that was lower than fiscal Q2 2026 ended 2025-07-31, with revenue of $92.1M, net income of $10.2M, and diluted EPS of $0.65. Fiscal Q1 2027 ended 2026-04-30 lost $2.8M. At the $6.50 close on 2026-10-13, FairStock calculations show a negative trailing P/E of -40.63, P/B of 0.93, negative ROE of -2.23%, ROCE of -1.41%, and EV/EBITDA of 61.81. The Lynch category is an ASSET PLAY because it trades at 0.93x book value. Financial health is mixed: D/E is 0.34, Piotroski is 5/9, and Altman Z is 1.83, a gray-zone reading. TTM free cash flow is $8.8M, an 8.6% FCF yield, which is a genuine positive. FairStock score is 19/100. A Graham-style asset play can offer downside protection, but only if book value is real and the business can earn decent returns. Here returns are negative and growth is shrinking, so I would want a larger cushion or clear evidence of profit recovery before calling it a high-quality value opportunity.

In plain English: Virco makes and sells furniture, mostly seating and tables, in the United States and Canada. The business looks weak right now: annual profit fell sharply, and the latest filed quarter was profitable but smaller than a year earlier. The stock price looks low compared with the company's net asset value on the books, but weak profits mean it is not clearly a bargain.
