Spark’s Take on PL Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, PL is a Neutral.
The score is driven by improving fundamentals and a constructive earnings outlook (strong growth, rising backlog, adjusted EBITDA profitability and continued positive free cash flow), partially offset by ongoing GAAP losses and negative ROE. Technically the stock is in a strong uptrend but appears overbought, and valuation is constrained by the negative P/E and lack of dividend support.
