Yext, Inc. (YEXT) on Decifer

Decifer ranks YEXT number 177 of 274 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns solid returns on the money it puts to work, around 12% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 6% a year, profits grew 241% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a high share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power, with profitability widening as it grows.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
• And it returns cash to shareholders and its own insiders have been buying.
• Our durability check found pressure on this name, which costs it a few points.
• Solid 12 percent returns and profits up 241 percent with insider buying and momentum of 19 out of 35 look healthy, but revenue growing about 6 percent a year and no funded role cap the growth investibility.

The current read

The evidence on YEXT lines up on the supportive side: a live market force supports this name through its theme connection. One signal disagrees: the longer-term story is intact, but price is not rewarding it: semiconductor stocks are down 1.1% this week, worth watching but not the weight of the evidence.
