Crash risk high

How well MEQIRI warns

One of the 30% with the highest crash risk among smaller stocks.

Valuation

Fair value
not meaningful
Gap to fair value
no data

A fair value is not meaningful here, so the signal follows the valuation grade.

Valuation metrics

no data
42.5
Fair value (model)
no data

The model puts the fair value at more than four times the share price. That says more about the assumptions than about the company, so a fair value is not meaningful here and the valuation relies on the P/E and the other metrics.

Company outlook confirmed

Share price after the results: +5.9%

Third-quarter guidance calls for margin expansion versus the prior quarter and rides growth in the second half; the company gave no comparison with an earlier forecast.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“However, Freenow in the third quarter, sort of with the August holiday season, et cetera, tends to have a lower rides quarter overall.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.

From the earnings call on 6 Aug 2026 (fiscal Q2 2026), read by AI.

Insiders

Open-market purchases and sales by executives, board members and major holders

All insider purchases
