Inspired Entertainment, Inc. represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 46.4/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2585 out of 7,333 stocks. INSE'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.
INSE's quality score of 41/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of -36.0% (sector avg: 5.3%), gross margins of 70.0% (sector avg: 59.6%), net margins of -1.9% (sector avg: 2.3%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
INSE's value score of 55/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 2.75x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
Inspired Entertainment, Inc.'s investment score of 26/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 14.0% vs. a sector average of 7.8% and a return on assets of -1.3% (sector: 1.9%). 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.
INSE demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 58/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth stands at 14.0% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.62 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.
With a stability score of 61/100, INSE exhibits average financial resilience. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.62. 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.
Inspired Entertainment, Inc.'s short interest score of 36/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 1.62), micro-cap liquidity risk. At $253M (micro-cap), INSE carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. is a micro-cap company in the Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2585 of 7,333 overall (65th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -36.0% trailing the 5.3% sector median and operating margins of 9.8% above the 3.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Services peers.
While INSE currently exhibits a REDUCE 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.
