Rover Inc., is based in San Francisco.
Earnings History
When I look at a stock, the first thing I do is look to see if the company is beating the number. This tells me right away where the market’s expectations have been for the company and how management has communicated to the market. A stock that consistently beats has management communicating expectations to Wall Street that can be achieved. That is what you want to see.
For Rover Group, I see four straight beats of the Zacks Consensus Estimate over the last calendar year. That is great to see, but by itself that is not enough to make the company a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

Valuation
The valuation is a little high with the stock trading at 255x forward estimates with the industry average coming in at 27x. Price to book of 4x is well below the 4.9 industry average. Price to sales is at 5.8x and that is above the industry average of 1.9x.
Those valuation metrics are a little high, but keep in mind the company has just made the swing to profitability and that puts it on a lot more radar screens.
