FIGR

We rate Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. (FIGR) as a Reduce with a composite score of 40.9/100 at a current price of $29.61. The quantitative profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting limited upside potential and elevated risk of underperformance relative to peers over the next 12 months.

The rating is primarily driven by strength in value (69th percentile) and quality (57th percentile), which together account for the majority of the composite score. Offsetting weakness in stability (21th percentile) and investment (22th percentile) tempers our overall conviction. We assign a Narrow Moat rating (60/100), High uncertainty, and Exemplary capital allocation.

Key items to watch: momentum to confirm whether the current price trend has legs; sustainability of the current growth rate. Any material change in these dynamics could warrant a reassessment of our rating. The moat trend is stable, which suggests the competitive landscape is stable for now.

Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. holds a top-quartile position (#0 of 50) within the Services sector, based on our composite quantitative scoring across quality, value, momentum, and stability factors. The composite score of 40.9/100 places it at rank #3434 in our full 7,333-stock universe. At $4.7B in market capitalization, Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. is a mid-cap player in the Services space, which limits certain scale advantages but may allow for more agile strategic execution.

Revenue is growing at 55%, though momentum at the 26th percentile suggests the market has not yet fully recognized this trajectory. This potential disconnect between fundamental improvement and market recognition could represent an opportunity for patient investors if the growth trend persists.

The margin cascade tells an important story: gross margins of 88% (+28.4pp vs sector) narrow to operating margins of 34% (+30.2pp vs sector) and net margins of 57.4%, yielding a gross-to-net conversion rate of 65%. This efficient conversion suggests well-controlled operating costs and limited margin leakage between the gross and net levels.

At a current price of $29.61, Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. is trading near fair value based on current fundamentals. Our value factor score of 69/100 reflects a composite assessment across multiple valuation metrics including price-to-earnings, price-to-book, EV/EBITDA, and price-to-sales ratios relative to both sector peers and the broader market. Valuation metrics are mixed, with no strong signal of mispricing in either direction.

The stock currently trades at a P/E of 71.9x (a 203% premium to the sector median of 23.7x), EV/EBITDA of 32.0x (at a premium), P/B of 5.3x, P/S of 10.1x. The above-sector P/E multiple suggests the market is pricing in superior growth or quality, which our analysis finds only partially justified by current fundamentals.

We assign a High uncertainty rating to Figure Technology Solutions, Inc.. Key risk factors include elevated market sensitivity (beta of 3.28), below-average price stability (21th percentile), elevated valuation multiple (P/E 71.9x) that leaves limited margin for error. The wide range of potential outcomes widens our fair value estimate and increases the possibility of permanent capital impairment. Investors considering this name should size positions accordingly and demand a meaningful margin of safety before initiating.

Specific risk factors that inform our assessment include: elevated market sensitivity (beta of 3.28); below-average price stability (21th percentile); elevated valuation multiple (P/E 71.9x) that leaves limited margin for error. Each of these factors independently widens the distribution of potential outcomes, and in combination they create a risk profile that demands careful position sizing. The stability factor at the 21th percentile and quality factor at the 57th percentile provide a quantitative summary of the overall risk landscape.

Key risk mitigants include: healthy gross margins of 88% provide a buffer against cost pressures. These factors partially offset the identified risks and provide downside protection in adverse scenarios. On balance, the risk-reward profile warrants caution and disciplined position management.

We rate Figure Technology Solutions, Inc.'s capital allocation as Exemplary. Management demonstrates a strong track record of balancing reinvestment with shareholder returns, evidenced by returns on equity of 30.5%, disciplined leverage (40% D/E), best-in-class net margins of 57.4%. Exemplary allocators typically generate returns on equity above 20% while maintaining debt-to-equity below 50% — Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. meets this high bar.

The balance sheet remains conservatively managed, providing financial flexibility for opportunistic investments while maintaining a margin of safety for shareholders. We note that the combination of 16.7% return on assets and controlled leverage suggests management is deploying capital at rates well above the cost of capital — the hallmark of exemplary stewardship.

In summary, Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. receives a Reduce rating with a composite score of 40.9/100 (rank #3434 of 7,333). Our quantitative framework assigns a Narrow Moat (60/100, trend: stable), High uncertainty, and Exemplary capital allocation. The average factor score across quality, value, momentum, stability, and investment is 39/100.

Our analysis does not support a constructive view on Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. at this time. The combination of the current quantitative profile, high uncertainty, and exemplary capital allocation suggests unfavorable risk-reward at current levels. We recommend investors avoid new positions and existing holders consider reducing exposure.
