EVgo Inc. represents a avoid based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our quantitative model flags EVgo Inc. with an Avoid rating, assigning a composite score of 34.6/100 and 1 out of 5 stars. Ranked #4157 of 7,333 stocks, EVGO falls in the bottom tier across key factors. Historically, stocks with this profile have faced elevated risk of underperformance and capital loss.
EVgo Inc. registers a weak quality score of just 22/100, indicating significant profitability challenges. The company reports a return on equity of -21.2% (sector avg: 5.7%), gross margins of 12.4% (sector avg: 64.6%), net margins of -36.3% (sector avg: 2.8%). Low quality scores are often associated with businesses in turnaround mode, early-stage growth, or structurally challenged industries.
EVGO registers a value score of just 25/100, suggesting the stock trades at a significant premium to its fundamental metrics. High-premium valuations like this require strong future execution to avoid multiple compression, and downside risk is elevated if growth disappoints.
EVgo Inc.'s investment score of 32/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 38.6% vs. a sector average of 8.6% and a return on assets of -12.6% (sector: 2.4%). 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.
EVGO demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 56/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth stands at 38.6% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.12 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Moderate momentum may indicate the stock is consolidating or transitioning between trends, warranting close monitoring of upcoming catalysts.
EVGO's stability score of 44/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.12. Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
EVgo Inc.'s short interest score of 16/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include small-cap liquidity risk. At $1.5B (small-cap), EVGO carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.
EVgo Inc. is a small-cap company in the Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #4157 of 7,333 overall (43rd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -21.2% trailing the 5.7% sector median and operating margins of -39.9% below the 4.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Services peers.
While EVGO currently exhibits a AVOID profile, superior opportunities exist within the SERVICES sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
