Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 47.8/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2349 out of 7,333 stocks. BRLT's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
With a quality score of 62/100, BRLT shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of -7.8% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 58.8% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of -1.5% (sector avg: 1.0%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.
BRLT's value score of 61/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 28.74x, a P/B ratio of 0.31x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
Brilliant Earth Group, Inc.'s investment score of 27/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 4.6% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of -3.0% (sector: 0.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
BRLT is currently showing below-average momentum at 31/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at 4.6% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.70 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.
With a stability score of 49/100, BRLT exhibits average financial resilience. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.70 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). While the balance sheet is not a major concern, the stock is subject to typical market volatility and may experience sharper drawdowns during risk-off episodes.
The short interest score of 45/100 for BRLT suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. Specific risk factors include micro-cap liquidity risk. With a $206M market cap (micro-cap), Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.
Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. offers an attractive dividend yield of 12.1%, placing it among the higher-yielding stocks in its peer group. A yield this high can provide meaningful income, but investors should verify the payout is sustainable by examining the payout ratio, free cash flow coverage, and any history of dividend cuts.
Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. is a micro-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2349 of 7,333 overall (68th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -7.8% trailing the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of -1.6% below the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While BRLT currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
