Urgent.ly Inc. represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Urgent.ly Inc. receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 45.7/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2695 out of 7,333 stocks. ULY'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.
ULY's quality score of 41/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of 25.5% (sector avg: 5.7%), gross margins of 24.2% (sector avg: 64.6%), net margins of -20.1% (sector avg: 2.8%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
With a value score of 37/100, ULY appears somewhat expensive relative to its fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 3.49x. Investors paying a premium here are likely betting on above-average growth or margin expansion to justify current prices.
Urgent.ly Inc.'s investment score of 34/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of -4.6% vs. a sector average of 8.6% and a return on assets of -62.9% (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.
ULY demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 61/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth stands at -4.6% year-over-year, while a beta of -2.90 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.
ULY's stability score of 32/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of -2.90. Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
ULY's short interest factor score of 82/100 indicates very low short selling activity relative to peers — a positive signal suggesting institutional investors see limited near-term downside. Specific risk factors include micro-cap liquidity risk. As a micro-cap company with a market capitalization of $5M, Urgent.ly Inc. benefits from the generally lower volatility and deeper liquidity associated with its size class.
Urgent.ly Inc. is a micro-cap company in the Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2695 of 7,333 overall (63rd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 25.5% exceeding the 5.7% sector median and operating margins of -9.1% below the 4.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Services peers.
While ULY 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.
