Shares of Angi Inc (ANGI, Financial) experienced a significant drop of 21.95% following the release of their third-quarter financial results. The company's sales were in line with Wall Street estimates but showed a decline, leading to investor disappointment and subsequent stock price movement. The current trading price stands at $2.045.

Angi Inc, with the stock ticker ANGI, operates primarily in the United States, earning the majority of its revenue from its various home service brands like Angi, HomeAdvisor, and Handy. The company connects homeowners with service professionals across categories, including repair, remodeling, and landscaping. Despite a decline in key growth metrics such as service requests, ANGI managed to beat earnings estimates due to better-than-expected EBITDA performance.

In terms of valuation, Angi Inc has a GF Value of $2.22, which suggests that it is currently fairly valued. You can view the detailed GF Value assessment for more insights. With a price-to-book ratio of 0.98 and a price-to-sales ratio of 1.15, ANGI appears to have a relatively attractive valuation in comparison to its peers within the Interactive Media sector. However, ANGI's financial health is a concern, as indicated by an Altman Z-score of 1.67, placing the company in the distress zone, which implies a potential bankruptcy risk within the next two years.

The company's warning signs, including a severe decline in revenue per share and gross margin, further underline the challenges it faces. Additionally, the stock's price has been on a downward trajectory over the past three years, with a decline of 42.91%. While the company's Beneish M-Score implies that it is unlikely to be a manipulator, ANGI still faces significant hurdles to improve its financial standing and regain investor confidence.

Investment in Angi Inc (ANGI, Financial) carries a high degree of risk, particularly due to its declining growth metrics and financial distress indicators. Potential investors should weigh these risks carefully against the current valuation and market conditions before making investment decisions.
